Susan Patton: Why I Told Female Princeton Students To Find A Husband
Since publishing a letter to the editor in the Daily Princetonian Friday, some people have asked me to clarify whether I intended it to be read as satire. My letter was serious. I sincerely feel that too much focus has been placed on encouraging young women only to achieve professionally. Again, I understand that all women don't want marriage (to men or other women) and or children, but for those that do, identifying the right partner is critical. The popularity of Nikki Mueller's video (I Went to Princeton, Bitch) comically attests to the difficulty Princeton women face from men who are threatened by their academic credentials. The extreme reaction to my letter is astonishing. And, yes, this is exactly the advice I would give my daughters.

Dowry
A dowry is the transfer of parental property to a daughter as her inheritance at her marriage (i.e. inter vivos) rather than at the owner's death (mortis causa). A dowry establishes a type of conjugal fund, the nature of which may vary widely. This fund provides an element of financial security in widowhood or against a negligent husband, and may eventually go to provide for her sons and daughters.[1] Dowries may also go toward establishing a marital household, and therefore might consist of furnishings such as linens and furniture. Dowry contrasts with the related concepts of bride price and dower. Dowry is an ancient custom, and its existence may well predate records of it.

Who was Rene Caisse?
Many believe Rene Caisse (pronounced "reen case") is one of the greater heroines of the past century.

Supreme Court On Gay Marriage: 'Sure, Who Cares'
WASHINGTON—Ten minutes into oral arguments over whether or not homosexuals should be allowed to marry one another, a visibly confounded Supreme Court stopped legal proceedings Tuesday and ruled that gay marriage was “perfectly fine” and that the court could “care less who marries whom.” “Yeah, of course gay men and women can get married. Who gives a shit?” “Does anyone else up here care about this?” Before Roberts officially ended proceedings, sources confirmed that all nine justices were reportedly dumbfounded, asking why the case was even coming before them and wondering aloud if some sort of mistake had been made. Moreover, when Attorney Cooper said that gay marriage could harm the moral fabric of the country and hurt the institution of marriage, Associate Justice Sotomayor asked, “What are you even talking about?” “I have to interject, Mr. “Should gay marriage be legal?” “I’m a strict Originalist, Mr. “Get married, don’t get married, do whatever you want,” Roberts said.
