A List to Begin

Lately, I've been pondering the following:
1. The use of disability rhetoric in the Early Women's Movement - having just finished one paper on this topic, and moving to extend the argument into the "Second Wave" and the ramifications of the disability rhetoric, I've been reading about Margaret Sanger (very excited about her papers at the LoC), and the debates between the disability community and the feminist community regarding selective abortion and prenatal testing. Adrienne Asche will be at Temple University tomorrow speaking on the subject and I wish that I could be there.
2. How do my religious and academic beliefs align/disconnect? How much can I compromise? Why is feminism such a dirty word to Christian women? Why is it that single issues cause divides in a social movement but not a political party? (i.e. one can disagree with parts of a political platform and still call oneself a Republican, Democrat, etc...., but the single issues of abortion, divorce, and contraception can divide the Women's Movement, alienating two groups that are concerned about women's issues from one another). Why is it so difficult to find a Christian man who espouses liberal political philosophy? Will it always come down to the "submission" question?
3. How much of dating is really performance? Especially consider online dating as a performance of self. Why do people post pictures of themselves that are not truly representative, when they will eventually be found out in the first meeting? If they are willing to "lie" about things that are easily exposed, then how much more can you expect them to be dishonest in a relationship? Is it okay to walk out on a date if they have grossly misrepresented themselves?
4. After reading Charlotte Allen's blog: http://www.mindingthecampus.com/forum/2009/03/the_latest_pc_fad_disability_s.html
I felt the need to respond to her obvious lack of knowledge and due diligence in representing the scope of Disability Studies, as well as her misinterpretation of the theory behind the social construction of disability as opposed to the pathological and medical models. I did write a comment in response and am waiting to see if it gets posted. Reading "MindingtheCampus.com" should be an eye-opening to experience for many of us in the academic world. I have subscribed to the page, out of curiosity, to see what other nonsense will be posted in the future. I encourage you to do the same, and respond when you feel you must.
A p.s. - I just checked her blog and my comment is listed, as well as the comments of 2 others, so at least she is willing to post criticism of her work. Enjoy :)
5. Finally succumbing to my desire to blog (I've been avoiding it for more than a year now), I am hoping to find this process a good place to work out what I'm thinking and get feedback from others that I hope will help my future work.
