Tom Barrett’s War on Wisconsin Women

Mayor Tom Barrett is a misogynistic patriarchal oppressor who thinks you look fat in those pants. Progressive women in Wisconsin are about to learn a lesson they should have learned four years ago when Hillary Clinton got thrown under the wheels of Obama’s bus: All that talk you hear from Democrats about “women’s rights” goes […]

National Offend a Feminist Week 2012

Did somebody say “War on Women”? OK, we’re not actually anti-woman. More like, anti-Women’s Studies majors. Which is why, for the fourth consecutive year, we are pleased once more to inaugurate this annual festival of fun, quoting the immortal words of our charter: Hey, sweetheart, when I say “bring me a cup of coffee,” I […]

Large Crowd of Unattractive Women Attend ‘Slutwalk’ Parade in Boston

“Stop the violence, stop the hate,” hundreds of ugly women chanted as they paraded down the streets holding up signs with stupid slogans: You’ll excuse my factual description of the event, but I haven’t seen so many dogs in one place since the AKC grand championship show.

Feminism: Synonym for Insanity?

During his Sunday announcement that U.S. special operations forces had killed terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden, President Obama said, “Justice has been done.” Not even the president’s harshest Republican critics would argue with that. But you know who could argue? Jos Truitt at Feministing: That’s not what I call justice. I don’t see justice in […]

Feminists Offended by TV Commercial; Osama bin Laden? Not So Offensive

This is National Offend a Feminist Week, and last night I checked in to see what was happening at Feministing, where Lori Adelman was profoundly offended by this commercial for Klondike ice cream bars: Now, this is what we call a “joke.” The guy in the commercial is watching the game, and his wife wants to talk to […]

I’m Not Certain That Robbie Is Offensive To Feminists
