		<description><![CDATA[I just had tea with the female faculty at my law school. It was fascinating to discuss their experiences of sexism and inequality in the workplace. It was also heartening to see that two men showed up as paying members of the Women&#8217;s Legal Association (apparently there&#8217;s a third who simply couldn&#8217;t make it for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s a debate that addresses this at school today, which I shall attend. It is put on by the local chapter of the Federalist Society (the campus representative states that they are devoted to &#8220;honest &#038; careful interpretation of the constitution&#8221; and are &#8220;never timid about debating&#8221;). Sometimes I feel like I&#8217;m surrounded by them [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This has been floating around the feminist blogosphere and is by no means new. The argument goes thusly: some people think that abortion should be illegal; what, then, do they propose the punishment for breaking the law be? Tellingly, the answer is often &#8220;counseling&#8221; or &#8220;prayer&#8221; for the woman but loss of license or jail [...]]]></description>
