puto

The masculine form of the Spanish/Portuguese word puta ("whore"/"slut"/"bitch"). "Puto" can apply to gay males in some places or simply to any male who is sexually loose (some males are sexually loose, some aren't; sexuality has little to do with it).
"Puto" is used to imply weakness or cowardice in Spanish-speaking countries.

lil kim

A female rapper. Known largely for swearing like a sailor, in her singing and otherwise: it mostly involves bragging about sexual exploits.
Why just "lil kim"? Why not fit in more discriptions of her, like obsc'ne, logom'niac'l, perv'rse, or k'nky?

indignant

Displeased about something. Offended, insulted, or resentful, especially when you feel that you have been wronged, snubbed, or screwed over.
Silda Spitzer indignantly stood by her philandering husband, glaring at him as he rattled off an apology.

Allen and Jose, in all of the worry that Jose could be deported and all of the marital rights and security that were denied to them, grew indignant as Rush Limbaugh slammed same-sex marriage; as a serial monogamist with an overindulgent lifestyle and a drug addiction, *HE* was one to talk!

abortion

Terminating something that usually incomplete and/or unwanted.

In most cases, an abortion is terminating an unwanted pregnancy. Not because the mother wnats to kill the baby, but because she is not ready for a child, doesn't want a child, or some other reason.

Too many abortions have been carried out in back-alley clinics with unsafe methods and ignorant providers. Women have gotten terribly sick and died because of botched abortions.

A fetus has only been in the world for a few months while the mother has been in the world for years. Both would be missed should one of them die, but the mother would be leaving so much should she be lost.

Abortions, contrary to those who oppose it, actually does help children; it reduces the number of abused/neglected children; if the parents didn't want the baby and end up having it, they (the parents) would become frustrated by the fact that they had a child that they didn't intend to have, leading to neglect and abuse of the child. With abortion, the child won't have to endure the abuse.

Too many "oops" babies have been born and life made hard for the child and the parents; it's the contraceptive, abortion, or adoption.
Abortion must be accessible to all and be made safer so that women won't die or become sick from a botched or faulty abortion.

mrs

A title for a woman, derived from "mistress" (ie. "The Mistress of the House"). "Mrs" was used to refer to any woman, regardless of age and/or maritial status until the Victorian Era, when the diminuitive "Miss" was selected for unmarried women and married women were known as "Mrs".
(English-speaking) feminists now decry the use of "Mrs", feeling that the view that a woman is complete only when she is married is demeaning. Therefore, they use "Ms" instead.

Strangely, "In other European languages, non-sexist usage in this regard usually amounts to using words more or less equivalent to Mrs. (madame, señora, senhora, signora, Frau, bean-uasal) for both married and unmarried women, and whether they take their husband's name or not. This makes sense as these titles are usually the direct feminine equivalents of the male titles (monsieur, señor, senhor, signore, Herr, máistir/tiarna, maighstir/tighearna), whereas the equivalent of Miss is a diminutive of the female equivalent (mademoiselle, señorita, senhorita, signorina, Fräulein, ógbhean-uasal, maighdeann-uasal)." - Wikipedia

Katherine of Aragon

(1485-1536) Katherine of Aragon was the first wife of Henry VIII and the mother of Mary Tudor, also known as "Bloody Mary".
Katherine and Henry were married for 24 years until Henry divorced her for Anne Boleyn; Henry's desire for an heir had led him to defy the Catholic church and would lead to the English Reformation.
However much prowess that Katherine showed as a ruler, however humanitarian that she was, however popular that she was among her people, it all came to nothing as her six pregnancies produced only one surviving child, a daughter, and her looks were ravaged by time, stress, and constant pregnancy.
"...For my part, I pardon thou everything, and I desire to devoutly pray God that He will pardon thou also. For the rest, I commend unto thou our doughtere Mary, beseeching thou to be a good father unto her... Lastly, I makest this vouge (vow), that mine eyes desire thou aboufe all things."
-from Katherine of Aragon's deathbed letter to Henry VIII

A petite, buxom redhead and the daughter of warrior monarchs Ferdinand and Isabella, Katherine of Aragon would have ended very differently had her sons survived. The love of her people, her own determination, and the support of foreign allies could not stop Henry from banishing her. Even her daughter was prevented from seeing her.
