The Rape of Credibility: Feminism’s Agenda and the Jackie Coakley Scandal

@ChuckCJohnson reports that the young woman pictured above is named Jackie Coakley, and that she was the main source for Rolling Stone‘s sensational (and now discredited) story about an alleged 2012 gang rape at a University of Virginia fraternity house.

Less-Than-Surprising Praise

To say @AlisonWillmore enjoyed the new Reese Witherspoon movie is like saying a 13-year-old boy enjoys masturbation.

Sex Trouble: Feminist Androgyny and the Polymorphous Perversity of ‘Queer’

LOL! Time Magazine Suggests Ban on Word ‘Feminist,’ Freakout Ensues

The irony accumulates in layers here: Time isn’t so sure about feminists.
