Every Child Deserves a Mother and a Father...

posted by on January 25 at 9:10 AM

A Bothell man accused of critically injuring his 6-week-old baby was charged Thursday with first-degree assault of a child.

James Robert Stephen, 23, told police he jerked the baby boy around on several occasions and "may have been too rough," according to court documents.... Stephens already had been reported to Child Protective Services on other occasions for abusing another of his young children, King County prosecutors said.

A man accused of drugging his 9-year-old daughter with cold medicine so he could meet his mistress has pleaded guilty to endangerment for leaving the girl and her younger sister alone at night.

In court, Richard Bowen did not admit to giving one girl Nyquil so she would sleep, but prosecutors said he admitted it during phone calls from jail.

Police said Bowen was responsible for his 8- and 9-year-old daughters while his wife worked overnight. On several occasions between February and May, he allegedly gave the cold medicine to the 9-year-old, then put both girls to bed before leaving to visit his mistress.

If the wife was at work and the kids were drugged... why not invite the piece-on-the-side over? That's what any responsible gay parent would do.

A grieving mother told a murder trial yesterday of the hours before her former husband hurled their six-year-old son from a hotel balcony before leaping from it with his daughter in his arms.

John Hogan, 33, is on trial in Crete for the death of his son Liam, who sustained head injuries. His daughter Mia, then two, survived with a broken arm after her father's body cushioned her fall.

The Women of Italy

posted by on January 21 at 1:31 PM

A truth is this...
matrixpre22.jpg...Italian women age much better than (black and white) American women. In fact, young Italian women are not as sexy as older Italian women. After a few days in Italy, younger woman recede into the background and women over forty, women who have mastered the full language of their form, come into focus. A lot more than gray hair is needed for an Italian woman to lose her erotic grip.

The young women of this land of cheap wine and strong coffee lack coordination, lack that sense of real presence, lack the glow of something specific and special. They are clumsy birds that act and look the same. Not even one made an impression on me. Upon Returning to the US, however, young women returned to the forefront.

Every Child Deserves a Mother and a Father...

Texas:

When the Arlington father caught his teenage stepson sexually assaulting his 8-year-old daughter late Jan. 2, the 32-year-old man did the right thing--he called police, investigators say. The 18-year-old was arrested by Arlington police on suspicion of aggravated sexual assault. The girl was taken to the hospital where an examination revealed she'd been raped anally. And the father issued a stern warning to his wife.

"He didn't want anybody to help [the teen]," said Sgt. Cheryl Johnson, supervisor of the Fort Worth sex crimes unit, adding that the man also stated that he would hurt his stepson.

But unbeknownst to the father, police say, the man's wife posted bond for her son's release from the Arlington Jail. When the teen called home for a ride on the early afternoon of Jan. 3, his stepfather answered the phone and arrived at the jail to pick up the teen.

But the pair didn't go home, investigators say. Instead, the Arlington man reportedly drove his stepson to an abandoned house in east Fort Worth where he delivered his own brand of justice. Police say he severely beat the teen with a baseball bat, then anally raped him with a wrenchlike metal tool.

A Southeast Washington woman accused of killing her four daughters told police that they were "possessed by demons" and that they had been dead for at least four months before marshals found their bodies, according to police and charging papers filed yesterday.

Authorities said they believe the girls, ages 5, 6, 11 and 17, could have been killed as early as May, noting that the bodies were in an advanced stage of decomposition when discovered Wednesday by marshals serving eviction papers at the two-story brick rowhouse.

UPDATE: Well, not really an update. Another:

A Winter Haven man was charged with murder, accused of fatally beating his 4-month-old daughter Christmas Day because he wanted a son, authorities said. Marcos Gomez-Romero, 28, told investigators that he beat Ariana Rodriguez Romero to death because he wanted a son instead of a daughter, according to a Polk County Sheriff's Office report.

According to deputy interviews, Gomez-Romero said he became angry every time he saw the girl. He also said that abusing his daughter became a habit, a sheriff's report showed.

Sad news out of South Dakota--but, hey, at least the two dead girls had a male and a female role model in the home.

Two girls found dead in a smoke-filled house Sunday were the victims of a ritual slaying, police said Monday. Their stepfather, Lawrence Douglas Harris Sr., 25, has been arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Kendra Suing, 10, and Alysha Suing, 8.

Police Lt. Marti Reilly said Harris had been performing "some strange ritual." Harris told investigators he was casting a spell that "had gone bad" and the spell "could have had severe consequences," according to Sioux City Police Chief Joe Frisbie.... Kendra and Alysha Suing were dead before the fire and appear to have died of strangulation and stab wounds. Frisbie said an official cause of death will not be released for several days.

Sioux City Police and Fire departments responded Sunday afternoon to an anonymous report of a fire at 1420 Nebraska St. When officers arrived at the scene, Frisbie said, Harris indicated that the victims were dead in their bedrooms. Frisbie said Harris told authorities he was the only adult present at the scene. The girls' mother, Marla Harris, also lives at the house.

Every Child Deserves a Mother and a Father...

posted by on January 4 at 5:02 PM

And in cases where the actual mother and father can't raise a child, it's crucial that a child have male and female role models in the home. A child needs mother figures and a father figures. Having two parents of the same sex simply isn't in the best interests of a child. It's just wrong. It's unjust. And I'm sure this child--who lives in Florida, where gays and lesbians are unable to adopt--will one day understand that, if you're going to have your skin burned off, it's better to have your skin burned off in a traditional heterosexual household.

A Central Florida man is accused of pouring hot cooking oil on a 17-month-old and using a hair dryer to burn his skin off because the toddler apparently would not stop crying and whining. Police said Darlanne Toussaint was charged with felony attempted murder on suspicion he abused his girlfriend's son in an Apopka apartment building Thursday.

The mother of the child, Marlita S. Stokes, 23, was arrested on Friday and faces charges of child neglect and providing false information to police.

According to a charging affidavit, Toussaint poured the hot cooking oil on the boy, shook him hard for 10 minutes and then burned him with a blow dryer to the point that his skin fell off, Local 6 reported.

Via Pam's House Blend, where RadicalRuss says...

Thank goodness some states, like Florida, don't let gay couples adopt and others are considering or have considered bans on gay adoption. Why, who knows what awful parents gay people would be, what with their awful gayness. The poor kid might get gay cooties or something.

Better we just let the straights in Florida keep up their fine examples of parenting.

What's that, Mitt "Dead Man Running" Romney?

"I believe that the development of children is enhanced by having a male and a female as part of their upbringing in their home. Even when there's a divorce, you still have a mom and a dad. And even where one member of the partnership may pass away, the memory and the characteristics of that gender, of that partner influence the development of a child."

So take comfort, little 17-month-old burn victim in Florida. Like Mitt says, even if one member of the opposite-sex partnership raising you is sent away for life, you'll always have those memories to cherish.

Modesty Is a Guard to Virtue

posted by on December 29 at 8:50 AM

My boyfriend's one-eyed poodle was in our bed last night. And he just couldn't stop licking himself--the poodle, not the boyfriend--and making these awful smacking sounds all night long, sounds that drove me out of my own bedroom at three in the morning. So I'd happily contribute to this woman's legal defense fund:

A 25-year-old woman was arrested for investigation of second-degree assault for getting into an argument with her boyfriend over whether his dog should be in the bathroom while the couple were taking a shower together.

A police report said the 26-year-old man wanted his dog to join them in the bathroom, but the woman objected on Thursday night.

She told him if the dog wouldn't stay out, she didn't want to be his girlfriend anymore. He replied that maybe his next girlfriend would appreciate the dog more, and called her a name.

The couple--nude, in the bathroom, and unshowered--commenced to "grappling," the woman then punched the man in the face repeatedly, and finally threw a framed picture at him, which broke and cut him. The woman's in jail now, her boyfriend is back on the market, and the dog, unfortunately, is unharmed and remains at large.

Britney Spears' younger sister Jamie Lynn Spears has announced in OK! Magazine that she is pregnant. Meanwhile her mom Lynne Spears' book on Christian parenting, due in Spring 2008, has been indefinitely delayed. Us Weekly reports Jamie Lynn's father - Lynne's ex-husband Jamie - is "furious" that mother and daughter sold their story to OK! and "devastated" at the news that his youngest child is pregnant. Jamie Lynn supposedly got a $1 Million back-end deal for the interview.

Uh... Mrs. Spears? Wouldn't your divorce and your daughter's divorce, drug use, and spectacularly bad parenting disqualify you from writing a book about "Christian parenting"? Didn't you think that was a little jinxy--even before your other daughter got herself knocked up at 16?

Officers wrote that the baby appeared to be well-fed but was naked and had raised, red, pinhead-sized marks all over his body, as well as severe diaper rash.

The baby's grandmother told police the marks on the child were probably flea bites.

Although I am American, England has been my home since I was three years old. I now split my time between Los Angeles and London and regularly visit New York. There are many, many differences between the British and the Americans, but none more glaring than UK women’s approach to their own upkeep...

Why is it the case (and I’m generalising here) that British women spend so little time and effort on looking after them-selves? Take, for example, Helena Bonham Carter, a spectacular example of the English rose. And yet she is regularly photographed looking like a bag of spanners. Can you imagine a similar photo of the American equivalent, say Michelle Pfeiffer? Absolutely not.

Investigators say the alleged abuse began Wednesday, but police didn't learn about the reported overdose until doctors from Seattle's Children's Hospital called. The young girl had nearly stopped breathing while doctors treated her for a bruised eye.

Police say further tests showed high amounts of oxycontin and marijuana in the girl's system.... Doctors also found signs of abuse, such as bruises and broken bones, on the young girl and her twin brother.

Sorry, Brad & Jonah, but High School Musical going up against a professional football game does not pit the straights against the gays. It pits straight teenage girls against straight adult males. While a few gay men find that Zac kid attractive (I do not; his teeth are small and stumpy and he has a rodent face), the overwhelming majority of his fans are straight teenage girls.

High School Musical vs. pro-football? That's an internecine conflict, boys, not a battle between the forces of light (the homos) and the forces of darkness (the heteros). Better luck next time.

Any Lesbian Couples After Your Sperm?

posted by on December 3 at 4:53 PM

Did they tell you they needed a donor because they wanna be moms? And did they tell you that you wouldn't be expected to pay child support or provide in any way for the kid? Well, you might wanna get that in writing--and you might wanna skip sending the kid birthday cards.

In the US:

A Nassau County man who said he donated sperm to a female co-worker as a friendly gesture--and then sent presents and cards to the child over the years--is legally considered the father and may have to pay child support for the college-bound teenager, according to a judge's ruling.

According to the man's testimony, in the late 1980s he was a physician at the same Nassau County hospital where the child's mother was a resident. After learning the woman and her female partner wanted to have a baby, the man donated his sperm and the woman gave birth on July 26, 1989. Married at the time, the man agreed that he would not have any rights or benefits in raising the child, but the verbal agreement was never put in writing.... In the murky legalities of artificial insemination by a known donor, the best protections are to have everything in writing and "do your homework," said reproductive lawyer Melissa Brisman of Park Ridge, N.J.

In the UK:

A firefighter who donated sperm to a lesbian couple said yesterday that he was being made to pay child support for their son and daughter, in a case believed to be the first of its kind in Britain. Andy Bathie, 37, said the women, who approached him five years ago after other male friends declined to become donors, assured him he would have no personal or financial involvement in the children's upbringing. But he said the Child Support Agency contacted him last November and made him take a £400 paternity test, then demanded support payments because the couple had split up....

"These women wanted to be parents and take on the responsibilities that brings. I would never have agreed to this unless they had been a committed family. And now I can't afford to have children with my own wife--it's crippling me financially," he told the Evening Standard.

Royce Clyde Zeigler wanted his wife to spank Riley with a belt when she failed to say things like "please" and "yes sir" or "no sir." Zeigler didn't believe Kimberly Dawn Trenor was doing it, however, because the 2-year-old's behavior wasn't changing....

In her statement to Galveston authorities, Trenor said the girl was beaten with leather belts, had her head held underwater in a bathtub and then was thrown across a room, her head slamming into a tile floor.

In other disturbing details: Trenor and Zeigler met online and Trenor is pregnant with Zeigler's child.

Organisers of a beauty pageant in Puerto Rico are investigating a case of sabotage after a contestant's dress and make-up were covered with pepper spray.

Ingrid Marie Rivera beat 29 pageant rivals to become the 2008 Miss Universe contestant, despite breaking out twice in hives - a red swollen rash.

Ms Rivera remained composed onstage before the judges, but backstage she applied ice packs to her face and body.

Her clothing and make-up later tested positive for pepper spray.

"We thought at first it was an allergic reaction, or maybe nerves," said pageant spokesman Harold Rosario.
"But the second time, we knew it couldn't have been a coincidence."

Black Friday edition...

A shopping trip on Black Friday ended in charges for a local couple. Police said the couple left a two-year-old alone in a cold car during Thursday night's chilly weather. Police said it took someone else to watch out for the baby's safety and call the authorities. The Washington County Sheriff's Office was called to the Prime Outlets in Hagerstown just before 3:00 a.m.

When they got there, officers found a young boy strapped to a car seat, cold and crying, but the parents were nowhere to be found....

"A concerned citizen called into the Sheriff's Department in reference to an unattended child left in the parking lot," said Jason Litten, Deputy with the Washington County Sheriff's Office.

The two-and-a-half year old baby boy is the child of 20-year-old Laura Havens. Deputies said Havens and her boyfriend, 22-year-old Casey Shields, abandoned the child as temperatures dipped down near the freezing point.

Real Men Aren't Afraid to Suck Straws

posted by on November 9 at 3:13 PM

Or, it seems increasingly, cock.

A study released by a sex researcher in the UK is garnering a lot of sexy headlines--like this one:

One Third of US High School Football Players Have Had Sex with Men

Sociologist Dr. Eric Anderson, studying American men who had played football in high school, said that out of 47 men surveyed, 19 had participated in sexual conduct with others of their gender.

Sexual contact was defined to mean behavior specifically meant to sexually excite others, and ranged from kissing to oral sex. The behavior also ranged from threesomes with one woman and two men present, to encounters involving only two men.

footballers.jpg

Mmm... football.

Anderson's sample was small--just 47 straight guys, 19 of whom cheerfully admitted to having messed around with another dude--and all the men had moved from being high school football players to college football cheerleaders. Says Anderson on Salon today...

"I'm not trying to say that these men are gay in any way, shape or form," Anderson says. "That isn't the point of this. The point is to simply make the point that homophobia is reducing at an unbelievably rapid rate, and this is one of the multiple benefits that come with that...

"I wanted to see what would happen when you take men who used to be football players and you put them in a field with the people they used to make fun of, the cheerleaders. And what I found was that they very quickly undo their homophobia, if they had homophobia. They very quickly change their views about women. And one of the things they do, they very quickly undo the 'one-drop rule' of sexuality."

For the last few decades--ever since gay people started coming out and living openly--the "one-drop rule" has been in force. Any man that messed around with another man, even just once, had to be a fag. Period. But women were able to admit to one or two same-sex crushes and a handful of few same-sex experiences--hell, relationships (LUGs?)--without everyone insisting that they had to be closeted lesbians. And increasingly straight men--real straight men, not messed up closet cases--are insisting that they too can have the odd same-sex experience without being gay.

Not that there's anything wrong with being gay. But just as not everyone that has straight sex is straight--I had straight sex, for crying out loud--not everyone that has gay sex is gay.

Back to Anderson:

"When we were in high school, you kissed another man, you were a fag, fag, fag, and that was that. You'd get the crap kicked out of you. That is not the case at all anymore."

Anderson says studies since the '50s have shown that men have had sex with each other without identifying as gay. "The primary difference here is that in their peer culture, these behaviors aren't stigmatized anymore, or are considerably less stigmatized," he says. "The key here is that it doesn't threaten their heterosexual identity in the peer culture anymore. They can do this now--which really isn't anything new--but the difference is their teammates don't go, 'Oh, you fucking faggot.'"

Judging from my "Savage Love" mail I'd say there are a lot of folks out there that would go, "Oh, you fucking faggot." The one drop-rule has weakened, it hasn't been repealed. Every day brings a letter from someone utterly convinced that a straight-identified husband, boyfriend, drinking buddy, etc., who admitted to a same-sex experience simply must be a closeted fag. But I also get letters every day from straight guys who, like Anderson's football players, cheerfully admit to a same-sex experience or crush and don't think of themselves as gay and the least bit conflicted about it.

Seeing as we're moving into a brave new world when straight men can suck dick once or twice in their lives without having to hang a rainbow windsock on their decks (who do you think is booking all those shemale escorts anyway?), hopefully we won't be seeing many more "news reports" like this one. WCVB in Boston has a list of "10 Drinks a Man Should Never Order." Because, you know, today you can suck dick without all your friends thinking you're a fag--but, dude, order a blended drink, or one with too much garnish, or a Jello shot or a cosmo and everyone's going think you're a total homo.

My favorite drinking "don't" for insecure straight men:

Anything that requires a straw. It's hard to look coy with a straw, it's nearly impossible to look macho or hot when using one.

Yeah, everyone is going to think you're gay if you put that straw in your mouth. But sucking your teammate's cock during a boy-girl-boy threesome? Nothing gay about that, dude. Party on.

Teacher Runs Off With 13 Year-Old Boy

posted by on November 3 at 10:48 AM

It was a lady teacher--but the religious right will find a way to pin the latest teacher/student sex scandal on the gays, no doubt.

A female schoolteacher was arrested in Mexico and the 13-year-old boy she allegedly ran away with was turned over to his relatives, a prosecutor said Saturday.

Kelsey Peterson, a 25-year-old sixth-grade math teacher and basketball coach at Lexington Middle School, was arrested in Mexicali, a city on the border with California, Dawson County Attorney Elizabeth Waterman said.... Peterson and the boy fled after police began investigating whether the pair had an intimate relationship, authorities said. Court documents said the boy was last seen Oct. 26.

Every Child Deserves a Mother and a Father...

A Northville couple ended up in jail, both facing drunken driving charges, after Ypsilanti Police first pulled over the husband, who was driving with his young son in the car, and then arrested the mother when she showed up to pick up the boy.

Officers said they saw the man run a red light at Prospect Road at Clark Road at about 11:20 p.m. Saturday. When they stopped him, they said they gave him a preliminary breath test that registered 0.11. The legal standard for drunken driving is 0.08.

Police said they told the man's 12-year-old son to call his mother to pick him up.
But when she arrived with her 9-year-old daughter in the car, police said, she also appeared to have been drinking, and registered 0.13 on a PBT. Both children were turned over to a relative, and the parents held until they sobered up.

No word on whether the mother or the father are running for the Northville city council.

Busted!

What's the matter with heterosexuals anyway? Don't they have apartments? Can't those people just get a room? I mean, why would anyone have sex in a public toilet? Disgusting!

Seattle police arrested a couple at Cal Anderson Park Sunday afternoon after a mother and young child accidentally discovered them having sex in the park bathroom.

According to police reports, a mother was inside the bathroom with her child at about 3:30 p.m. when she saw that a man and woman were having sex in the neighboring stall. She contacted two bicycle officers patrolling the park, who entered the bathroom to find the couple still engaged sexually....

The man, 36, and woman, 32, were both booked into King County Jail on suspicion of indecent exposure, according to reports. They were also banned from city parks.

A local man accused of binding his 13-year-old son to a pole in their basement and beating him with a 2-by-4 was arrested Tuesday after he tried to flee the state....

Rodriguez bound his son's wrists and ankles to the pole with zip ties and duct tape, and struck him at least seven times with the 2-by-4 in a "baseball bat-type swing" until it broke apart, police said. Rodriguez then found another piece of wood and threatened to strike his son again but didn't.

The beating was prompted by how slowly the boy completed homework assignments, police said. The boy's mother was not home at the time, and the boy called 911 to report the assault after he was freed, police said.
