Young Feminist Has Problems

Erin McKelle Fischer (@ErinMcKelle) is a Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies major at Ohio University whose name I recognized because in February I quoted her denunciation of “heteronormative” virginity: “The idea of your first penis-in-vagina sexual encounter being something significant and life altering (well, for women anyway) has origins in women being considered property. “That is […]

Our Moral Superiors So Seldom Condescend to Address Us Directly

Sara Alcid: Infinitely superior to the typical American. “And now apparently shocked at the ‘intimidation’ of being quoted on the Internet, Ms. Alcid has protected her tweets — a victim, no doubt, of ‘patriarchal oppression.’” — Donald Douglas, American Power Recently, I began referring to liberals as Our Moral Superiors, because that’s who they think […]

Why Does Lesbian @SaraAlcid Want to Help More Women Kill Their Babies?

It isn’t every day that a “Queer Feminist” with a diploma from Bryn Mawr (undergraduate tuition $42,870 a year) decides she needs my attention, but I’m so grateful for Miss Alcid’s encouragement to expand on what I said this morning: “Professor Aptheker is exactly right: If you want to be a true feminist, you must […]

Taylor Swift, SJW

  Pop culture in the Age of Wokeness: When did Phil Bredesen become a heroic figure in “the fight for LGBTQ rights”?

Loony Troons: Fantasy, Mental Illness and the Transgender Victimhood Narrative

  Avery Edison “has legally been a woman since 2009” and, in addition to calling himself a woman, Avery also pretends to be a “comedian.” Here’s the real question: Why should we be required to play along with Avery’s make-believe games, either as a “comedian” or as a “woman”? Nobody can force you to go […]

Feminist ‘Comes Out’ and Nobody Cares

Charlotte Morabito is a Women’s Studies major and a queer feminist, but I repeat myself. She got her degree — actually a double major in Journalism and Media Studies and Women’s and Gender Studies — last year from Rutgers University, and now works for MSNBC. Did I mention Charlotte Morabito is fat? Because her fatness […]
