Silly as it sounds, the Prime Minister's scare campaign is based on these two contradictory accusations: wages will go up and wages will go down.

As I get older, (and yes I'm slow on the uptake) I'm starting to realise that we're all in this together; what we do to one person, we do to ourselves and as I've said in other posts, you cannot separate women's rights from men's because they're one in the same, it's a matrix where if one half is degraded, the other suffers as well.

AHAHA! Anyone who knows me IRL has probably heard my spiel about all the days in the medieval year in which you could not have sex, and the humourous parrallels with the Truce of God, which listed all the days of the year in which you could not make war. Many of these line up (lent, advent, sunday, and wednesday being on both lists, i believe). This gives me a humourous image of a knight waking up one morning, realising it's one of the few days of the year in which he was allowed to do both, and then trying to decide which to do first.
Anyway. Carl Pyrdum has put up this excellent flow-chart questionaire which will help you all decided when to have medieval sex. Have fun :)
