So, since it looks like I’m only going to have a chance to do one good-sized post this crazy week, I thought I’d ask you, my loyal readers, which of my several potential topics you’d like me to write about next. There are many fermenting in my brain as we speak, and while I’d love to get to them all today (hah!), school and family and work and health obligations dictate only ONE must be chosen for now! So for your selection and control freak pleasure, which of these would you have me pick:
1) Breastfeeding and choice (a sort of follow up to my prochoice abortion post)
2) What price mental health?
3) Privilege and getting called out on -isms (a sort of response to a recent piece at Womanist Musings)
4) Passing for straight: parenting with a man as a queer-identified woman
So there you go. I guarantee that vote count will be fair and accurate and may have no relevence to the final outcome, and both welcome your alternate suggestions and reserve the right to get caught up in a totally different topic that simply Must Get Covered Now. But odds are good that my next post will be on whatever you, yes YOU, pick for me. So vote now!
Hmmmm, I enjoyed the abortion peice – I say breastfeeding and choice (as a current lactator and lactivist), though I’ve been following the digital colonialism thing with interest, so maybe the isms? ;-) Whatever – just wanted to de-lurk and send the online lurv and appreciation.
I vote for #4 because it’s what I know the least about so I want to know.
But they are all intriguing…
Ooo, retitle 3) as “The Boychick and Dykes to Watch Out For”, because I was typing this in the car while he was napping (and, er, not while driving, not even at stop lights, because that would be wrong…), and forgot the angle I was going to approach it from. Or maybe that’s two different posts. I dunno. But it’s definitely a title I want to use. ;)
Hi Selene, thanks for delurking!
And Hi as always Breeze. :) Glad to see your blog came back. :D
Well, I vote for #2 because I very much want to hear your take on it…
But I’ll read anything you write!
#2 would be interesting.
All of ‘em! Wait, no, that’s not helpful, is it?
I vote 2 or 4. With 4 getting the edge due to proposed title.
#4!!!!
Um, also, interested in guest blogging?
1) i
2) iii
3) i
4) iii
Oooo, looks like it’s a tie between mental health and sexuality! Anyone want to come quick and cast a potentially-deciding vote?
And I must say, I’m surprised at the answers. Not what I would have predicted!
(Also, did I mention they’ll probably ALL get covered at some point? The question is only what I’m doing this week with my limited time.)
