EWU’s new red turf
This week’s picks:
- Ella, a new emergency contraceptive that is effective for up to five days after unprotected sex, was approved by the FDA yesterday.
- New study of 2000 Chinese women indicates the IUD is effective for emergency birth control.
- Contrary to most previous research, a new study suggests that the Pill is equally effective in thin and fat women.
- There is almost certainly a connection between emotions and health, but blaming the Angry Vagina seems another way telling the ladies it’s all in their heads, albeit a different body part.
- The sports columnist in my local newspaper can’t make enough bloody puns about the new RED turf being installed in the football field at my university, but no period jokes?!?
Funny, I always thought blood in sports was constructed as a good thing. From that article it isn’t always constructed as positive, or at least the subtext isn’t as positive as I thought it would be. Or maybe I’m reading into it?
