Planned Parenthood is excited to be launching our new Tumblr that’s all about sexual and reproductive health – bodies, birth control, relationship issues, “is it normal for this to do this?” type things. In the coming weeks and months we’ll be sharing what we know, answering questions, and just… tumblring.
We hope you like it! And we hope it helps.
Welcome to the neighborhood!
I love that the Barack Obama tumblr reblogged this.

Tina and Angie chatting it up at the Women in the World summit at New York’s Lincoln Center, following a panel between Madeleine Albright and Charlie Rose.
Favorite (of many) quotes from the Charlie/Madeleine panel, about the price of war:
Charlie: “But Madeleine: Why aren’t there more women in power?”
Madeleine (who is sassy and amazing): “Men!”

Ladies, we have to start negotiating the living shit out of our salaries. Everywhere, every job.Women Make Less Than Men at Every Education Level
Among Americans with some form of post-high school education—a vocational, associate’s, bachelor’s, or advanced degree—men make more than $800 above women’s pay every month. And the gap widens as men and women climb educational ranks. In short, education is valuable, but it’s most lucrative if you’re male.
