Discussion List for campus-based and allied personnel working to end gender-based violence on campus.

["Ben Atherton-Zeman - Feminist, Actor and Husband" <>]

Did anyone watch "Last Comic Standing" last night?  This one comic did what I 
thought was a great bit on the whole "pimp" concept - now it's "cool" to not 
only "pimp" but to use it as a verb, "pimp my ride" etc.  

The bit describes violence against prostitutes in a bit of a flippant way, 
but otherwise I think the bit's great.  You can view it on YouTube (oh my, 
how did a copyrighted NBC video get on YouTube...):

Until the violence stops, Ben.
