Not only am I having a girl, but I picked the girl from her little embryo. I picked her and was like, 'Let's put in the girl.

To every woman who gave birth to every taxpayer and citizen of this nation: we have fought for everybody else’s equal rights. It’s our time to have wage equality once and for all, and to fight for equal rights for women in America.

She so clearly understands and supports women equality. The stakes have never been higher.

And while there are people of good conscience on both sides of this argument, one thing has become abundantly clear to me: the heavy hand of government must not make this decision for women and families.

I don't get it. No disrespect to Kim [Kardashian] but... people are offended by my breastfeeding selfies and are fine with her - amazing - booty cover?

The anti-feminist egalitarians believe that, whatever feminism’s positive past gains, its dominant modern version is hostile to men and demeaning to women. They are right.

Scott Walker has given women the back of his hand. I know that is stark. I know that is direct. But that is reality. What Republican tea party extremists like Scott Walker are doing is they are grabbing us by the hair and pulling us back. It is not going to happen on our watch.

[West Africa's] health system has completely collapsed. And by that I mean they don't have capacity to even see patients. Every day they are seeing patients - mothers present with dead babies in their womb because there's no one to do a C-section.

If we truly believe we can end all abortion, then we must also address the fact that many of those children will end up orphans.

Cardinal Dolan, of course, has a very, very hard job: trying to hold up Catholic family values in sexually liberal New York City. I’m not saying New York is the Gay Mecca. But it’s at least Gay-rusalem.

Even if many women in Egypt had discovered suddenly during the revolution that they had a voice and they could express what they wanted, they now are back in the family and in the kitchen, and this is where they are told they should be. And this is very grim.
