#FreeStacy Quoting My Favorite Source

Did you know that there is an online list of quotes by me? Who started compiling my aphorisms at AZ Quotes, I don’t know, but here are a few of my favorites, with links to the original sources: “Writing is a skill, not a talent, and this difference is important because a skill can be […]

#FreeStacy #CPAC2016: I’ve Got Friends in Low Places (and Everywhere Else)

  NATIONAL HARBOR, Maryland Everybody at CPAC is talking Trump (his supporters walked out on Ted Cruz) but I find it impossible to get excited about the presidential campaign. As I pointed out in my column at The American Spectator, Andrew Breitbart always said, “Politics is downstream from culture.” If conservatives will not fight on […]

  Perhaps you remember Harvard feminist Nian Hu, the Harvard student who declared: “I am a feminist. I believe in the equality of the sexes. For me, feminism means freedom,” and that among these freedoms was “freedom to have as many sexual partners as I want without being looked down on.” This inspired me to write […]

#FreeStacy Won’t Shut Up

  The difference between Anita Sarkeesian (@femfreq on Twitter) and myself can be summarized, as Da Tech Guy points out, in a single paragraph from Debra Saunders’ column: I reached out to Sarkeesian: no response.
