Corporate feminism often isn't about equality at all; it's about PR, perception management, and profit optimization. When companies boast about "female empowerment," the question isn't "What are they saying?"It's "What are they hiding?"Because in the aviation world, even empowerment can be measured in kilograms and fuel burn. Brands love slogans because slogans are cheaper than structural change.Empowerment becomes a marketing category, not a moral commitment. From lighter seats to optimized baggage allowance, every kilo matters in aviation.But when cost-cutting is wrapped in feminist hashtags, it stops looking like strategy and starts looking like spin.

50+ min ago (228+ words) Malappuram (Kerala), Dec 7 (PTI) Indian Union Muslim League leader Sayyid Munavvar Ali Shihab Thangal on Sunday issued a clarification regarding his daughter's recent remarks about women entering mosques. In a Facebook post, he responded after his 16-year-old daughter, Fatima Nargis, said at a public event that the practice of restricting women from entering mosques was cultural and should be changed. Thangal said he was issuing the clarification as a father, after she faced an unexpected question on a subject related to Islamic jurisprudence, which requires deep scholarly understanding. "We fully realise that the response she gave does not align with the mainstream Muslim belief system in Kerala or with the established conclusions of the scholarly community," he wrote. He said her reaction should be seen merely as an impulsive comment by a child who has not yet gained sufficient awareness…...

1+ hour, 20+ min ago (717+ words) COMMENTARY: Here are some ways the movement has a historic opportunity to build a system that protects all Americans. There is broad bipartisan agreement that the health-care system in the United States is broken. Our country just endured the longest government shutdown ever, and it was largely over health care. Few other developments in America could do more to combat abortion and protect unborn lives, uplift the dignity of pregnant mothers, restore the family unit, and revive American greatness than establishing a robust culture of life in health care. While the pro-life movement should reject legislative efforts to create a pro-abortion, pro-euthanasia socialized medical system, it is vital that the pro-life movement offers an alternative pro-life health-care vision and proposal. Drawing on Catholic social teaching, seven principles should inform policymakers and the American people about building a health-care system that…...

Newsroom, Dec 7, 2025 / 09:00 am While teaching an ethics and culture course, Heidi Bollich-Erne was looking for a journal featuring the work of Catholic women for her students to read. After being told that it simply didn't exist, she decided to create one herself. With the help of a team of women, Bollich-Erne has founded what she calls the "first intellectual Catholic women's journal." Its purpose is to not only define the feminine genius but also to show how faithful women can embody its beauty in their daily lives." "I want women to find a home, a place that values their work. The journal itself is edited, written, and published solely by Catholic women," Bollich-Erne told CNA. "The way that women write, the way that we express ourselves is very different. That's just who we are. That's part of the genius…...

2+ hour, 5+ min ago (1540+ words) With ever fewer people entering the workforce and paying taxes, financial and social programs such as Social Security become harder to sustain. The world has entered what demographers are calling a "Great Inversion," a profound reversal of the long-standing demographic momentum that powered global population growth for millennia." More than half of all countries now report fertility rates below the roughly 2.1 children per woman needed to maintain a stable population in the absence of significant immigration. For modern economies built on the assumption of ever-expanding labor forces and steady youth replenishment, this quiet shift threatens to upend the foundations of social and financial systems." Fewer workers will be available to support aging societies; the costs of healthcare and retirement will escalate; and entire nations may begin to contract in both size and global influence. A professor emeritus of demography at…...
