A Good Man is Hard to Find

My friend Tiffany and I were just talking last night about how many girls and women live in slavery, especially in the global sex trade. We remarked that after watching a movie like "Taken" which shows young women being sold into slavery and knowing that those conditions exist in the world for real women, it can be easy to direct a lot of angry, bitter energy to those people in this world called men (even despite having so many wonderful men in my own family and circle of friends!).

It seemed serendipitous today when I heard about a fellow Flobots.org Board Member and all-around great guy, Nic, who is a finalist in GQ Magazine's "Better Men, Better World" contest. He's nominated because he started an organization, Somaly Mam Foundation, to rescue girls from sexual slavery in Southeast Asia. He's also a graduate of my church's preschool! Encourage one of those men who's getting it right and help him maybe even earn $10,000 to free girls from slavery by voting for Nic here: http://thegentlemensfund.com/final_vote.asp
