Stella Says

Deafening silence on a national travesty  

The silence is truly deafening. Nary a peep about the beastly assault of a young woman that was so brutal, it forced her to abort her unborn child (the assault should be public record as it was reported to the police and the medical procedure was verified by the young woman).

If I had a wish for Domestic Violence Month, it would be that every female victim of this beastly crime would garner enough courage and foresight to testify against her offender.

Leave him

This week, a wife went to court for throwing the spectacles of another woman into a trench because her husband was rubbing the other woman’s face.

The end of men

There has been much buzz this week about a new book, entitled “The End of Men and the Rise of Women,” by Hanna Rosin.
