Feminist Tumblr: Spot the Error

Hint: Collectivism! “The only proof that I, as a feminist, do not hate men, should be the fact that I don’t kill, rape and beat them. The mere fact that I only rebel against my oppressor with my words, should be enough to show that I have compassion and are not motivated by hatred “While […]

Oppressive Biology

Feminist Tumblr attracts strange people with strange ideas, which they feel compelled to share with the world. Megan is 20 years old and her Tumblr profile begins by telling your her Myers Briggs personality type: INTP — introversion, intuition, thinking, perceiving. Why do so many Tumblr feminists list their Myers Briggs type? I don’t know. […]

Indecent Liberties: Police Say Teacher Showed Her Nude Selfies to Teen Girls

Melissa Waters Kidd, 34. Parents in Newport News were shocked last month when it was reported that a teacher at Woodside High School was under investigation: A search warrant filed in the case indicated three students told police the 34-year-old teacher showed them before-and-after photos of her breast augmentation. The photos were on the teacher’s phone. […]

Feminist @Clementine_Ford: ‘I Admit It. Really, I Hate Men. Now Give Me Money.’

The headline is scarcely an exaggeration of her plea: My name is Clementine Ford and I’m a writer, speaker and professionally angry person living in Melbourne.

Do You Wanna Rock-and-Roll?

In 2014, Lane Moore (@hellolanemoore) became “Sex and Relationships Editor” at Cosmopolitan magazine, which has been giving young women bad advice for decades. When I was in college, I’d go visit girls in their dorms and read their magazines — Cosmo, Glamour, Mademoiselle, whatever — as part of my intelligence-gathering operation. Like, what are girls […]

Who Is ‘Tiggy Upland’?

During my explorations of Feminist Tumblr, I stumbled across an online “advice” site called Tiggy Upland. The word “advice” must be put in quotation marks because it’s actually an advocacy site, promoting bisexuality and polyamory (i.e., what used to be called “swinging”). The name “Tiggy Upland” is obviously a pseudonym. At first I suspected the person […]

Rapists Everywhere (1-in-5)

St. Mary’s College of California is a private school where annual tuition is $41,380, according to U.S. News & World Report. Of the 3,055 students who attend Saint Mary’s, 41% are male and 59% are female. As an exercise in understanding the “campus rape epidemic” that feminists assure us is a nationwide scourge, let’s apply the notorious […]

‘We Need to Get Him Off the Internet’

Remember Lilly the Human Train Wreck, the mentally ill feminist Tumblr blogger who filed a federal complaint against her university? She did not like being quoted on my blog: Check it out. He “wrote an article” on me. He victim blames me the entire time. He hates that I am bi. He thinks I’m insane since […]
