When Excellence Is Expected

Today is my 56th birthday and I don’t intend to spend it arguing online with a Swedish idiot who popped up on Twitter to declare: “The right has become pro-rape.

The #AmberRoseSlutWalk: Feminism as Public Celebration of Inchoate Rage

Dan and Marty, also Alex’s roommates in a […]

War Against Human Nature: Radical Feminism’s Anti-Maternal Rage

(This afternoon, my wife and I will be attending a baby shower for my daughter-in-law, who is eight months pregnant with our second grandson.
