“ 'In Rome a vagina is una fica, a term deriving from the fig, a great thing, a delightful gift, a ribboned fruit. Among young Romans, the expression fica is a way to convey something extraordinarily good, akin to 'cool.' They even make it into a superlative—fichissimo, meaning that something is the 'cuntest' and very good indeed. Una fica is not only a sexually attractive woman, it is anything worthy of possession or experience. Imagine an American guy saying: 'Wow, that is so vagina!' You can’t.' " - Roger Friedland. word.

1294 Send CeCe Books
CeCe can- and would love to!- receive books in jail. All books need to be new paperback copies sent directly from a publisher or an online bookstore. She can also receive newspaper and magazine subscriptions.
CeCe is very interested in drawing, music, fashion, dance, and pop culture. Please keep her interests in mind when sending her reading materials. The following is a list of items she would like to read. Please email mpls4cece@gmail.com if you send her a book or magazine so we can avoid sending duplicates.
- Runway Uncovered by Ester Vilaseca
- Transgender Liberation: A Movement Whose Time Has Come by Leslie Feinberg
- Transgender Warriors: Making History from Joan of Arc to Dennis Rodman by Leslie Feinberg
- Trans Liberation: Beyond Pink or Blue by Leslie Feinberg
Books and other printed materials can be sent to:
Public Safety Facility
Chrishaun Reed McDonald #2012000296

Suite 100
Minneapolis, MN 55415Books and magazines must be addressed using CeCe’s full information above, including the inmate number. The Bureau of Prisons website notes that publications should not be “detrimental to the security, discipline, or good order of the institution, or facilitate criminal activity” so use your best judgement about what you send into the jail.
For info on join CeCe’s book club, check out this page.
I don’t know what to do to best support CeCe right now, but one of my first thoughts is that we can’t let her be forgotten after her sentencing and during her incarceration. She will need our support throughout, and this seems one way to provide it. (I would probably be careful about sending the books on the above list, as right now there’s probably a high chance for several duplicates being ordered at once.)

I got the idea from this comment on a Jezebel SNL post. (I know, I know. I’m weaning myself.) It was definitely another for-fun thing that
helped me procrastinate ongave me a nice break from comic work. Did it waste time? Yes. Appropriate sentiment is appropriate.
Nunca llames puta a una mujer por tener sexo. Porque me imagino que tu mama no te hizo dibujando.
Damn. That’s good.

I fucking love this man.
I got to meet him when I went to the Youthspeaks finals in Oakland. When he speaks, it’s like sex. So fucking smooth.
He is one of my idols.

Even if we put aside the question of fetal personhood and assume that a fetus should have the same rights as a born human being, giving that fetus the right to use another person’s body for its surivval would give it privileges that born people do not have. In no other case is a person legally compelled to use their body and their internal organs to sustain another’s life. We do not require parents to donate kidneys or even blood to their children, and we do not require anyone to be a good Samaritan and risk their life or health for another. It is difficult to imagine a case in which we would legally require a father to keep his child physically attached to his body, using his organs for survival, physically impairing him, and requiring him to miss work and possibly undergo surgery, for nearly ten months.
It would be difficult to make the case that the child (or full-grown adult) has a right to use their father’s body for survival. Yet this is exactly what opponents of abortion rights argue— except the body in question is female,
