They’re Here! They’re Queer!

They’re the #NYFLC2015! The Feminist Majority Foundation’s National Young Feminist Leadership Conference is meeting this weekend in Washington, D.C., but if you mistook this event for a lesbian festival, the confusion is not your fault. Last year, several attendees at the conference complained that the event was not “queer” enough. No one could make that […]

John Doe v. Cornell

One night in December 2013, a male Cornell University student hooked up with a female student at the woman’s apartment. Both students had been drinking. More than two months later, the woman “filed a complaint against Plaintiff, alleging that Plaintiff raped Jane Doe on December 14, 2013, while she was incapacitated.” Note the word “Plaintiff” […]

More Feminist Tumblr

Some people find feminist insanity amusing, but then again, some people find film footage of the 1934 Nuremberg Rally amusing. If you’re the type of person who is amused by totalitarian propaganda, just go to Tumblr.com and search for “feminism.” It’s an endless carnival of anti-male rage dispensed by lunatics like this “20-something, gender-fluid, bisexual”: […]

Feminist Problems

Note how @TracyClarkFlory twists the knife here: A vibrator is not a substitute for a partner. But how do you tell men that? We see here a classic example of feminism as psychological projection. Never mind the pathetic fate of women so desperately lonely that the only boyfriends they can get require batteries. No, this story has to be […]

From a Ph.D. Dissertation

“We live in a male-supremacist society. Under it, women are sexually colonized, are treated as sexual and reproductive chattel. Under it, women are subjected to a female sexual slavery that is at the core of patriarchy’s heart of darkness. Under it, women are subjected to epidemic level of male violence, male sexual violence and abuse. […]

This Is So True

“If you replace ‘men’ with ‘Jews,’ a huge percentage of Tumblr becomes Nazi propaganda.” The phenomenon of “Tumblr Feminism” really has to be seen to be believed. In the 1950s, women with mental illness were treated with psychoanalysis, tranquilizers or electroshock therapy. Now, all the crazy women just log on and post their deranged gibberish on […]

In the Future, Everyone Will Be a Victim

If you’re a University of Texas girl with blue hair and “queer social issues,” the sisters of Gamma Rho Lambda are there for you: UT students established a campus colony of the national sorority Gamma Rho Lambda this semester — the first queer-focused and transsexual-inclusive women’s Greek society at the University, according to the organization’s […]

The 19th Paragraph: Feminism’s Eternal Quest for the Great White Defendant

From an article in the Los Angeles Times: Venice High has long been a microcosm of the diverse community around it, which includes a mix of rapidly gentrifying neighborhoods and areas known as a center of gang violence. In 2006, a 17-year-old Venice High student was fatally shot as he tried to protect his younger […]
