Through the Looking Glass
Guest blogger: Michelann Websites: CSA for Three, Miss Michelann Royal reader since: 2010 I am a princess because I can put lipstick on in the dark, sing opera, and cook a mean eggplant parmesan. ♕  ♕  ♕  ♕  ♕  ♕ When GG asked me to write a guest post for the Princesses, I was...
Dear Wife of Pagan, Pt. 3 (Final One!)
This week I’m finishing my answer to Wife of Pagan from Slate.com regarding how to deal with conversion inside a marriage or other close relationship.  Read on for Part 3, or check out last week for Part 2, or two weeks ago for Part 1. I’m jumping right in with no introduction, so if you’re...
Dear Wife of Pagan, Pt. 2
This week I’m continuing my answer to Wife of Pagan from Slate.com regarding how to deal with conversion inside a marriage or other close relationship. Read on for Part 2, or check out last week for Part 1. I’m jumping right in with no intro, so if you’re not already familiar with this story, you...
Dear Wife of Pagan…
This week GG pointed me to an article on Slate.com in which Dear Prudence gives meh advice* to a devout Christian woman whose husband of four years converted from atheism to Wicca. Jason at The Wild Hunt already wrote detailing why the advice of Emily Yoffe, Dear Prudence’s author, was not only bad advice but...
Kirk Cameron and Free Speech
This week on The Grand Overseer (i.e. Facebook) I watched an argument over whether or not Kirk Cameron’s comments regarding homosexuality on Piers Morgan were out of line or not. The argument centered less around the content of what he said and more around whether or not Kirk Cameron has the right to have and...
Keeping It Real, Mythologically Speaking
I believe in Odin. Like, for real. I just had to get that off my chest. To be honest, that’s pretty difficult for me to say out loud, (write out loud?) and I find myself regularly avoiding that very statement (or anything similar, such as “I believe in Thor†or “I believe in Freyjaâ€) when...
One Toe in the Closet
My grandmother thinks I go to a non-denominational church. I know. The Princesses are very supportive of coming out of the closet, and typically I am very much out in the open. My friends know, if it organically comes up in conversation with strangers I’ll talk about it, and I’ve never tried to hide what...
May 2nd is International Pagan Coming Out Day
A few months ago, Jax made a compelling case for coming out of the broom closet. The folks at International Pagan Coming Out Day (IPCOD) agree with her thesis! IPCOD is not just a day, it is a non-profit organization that promotes a positive image of paganism and offers advice on how to transition from...
The Case for Living Out of the Broom Closet
I believe it’s important for people to be honest about who they are and not to hide behind social convention. I’m not saying we should wear buttons that read, “I’m pagan. Ask me all about it!â€* or be obnoxiously in people’s face about it, but people of other faiths aren’t afraid to wear their symbols...
