Junior English major pooh-poohs anti-violence campaign

When I finally slogged to the end of this essay (on how “average” men are deeply injured by activists who enjoin them to stop raping people), a cold, mirthless laugh erupted from the Twisty obstreperal lobe. The essay was signed “A.J. Cooke, junior English major.” Now it made sense.
I was a junior English major myself […]

Fetuslove, Canadian-style

As a Texan lesbo spinster aunt, I am the world’s leading authority on Canadian abortion law, so when I got an mass email from Bonnie Gembey at LEAF Manitoba that said, “Ladies, the Harper government is up to its usual shenanigans again,” I knew just what to do.
I went straight to Google and looked up […]

MO State House: “Women are morons”

Let us now turn to an abortion story that ought to be a hoax but isn’t.
And so it came to pass that the Missouri state House gave a big thumbs-up to a bill that, among other things, would require abortion providers to “offer pertinent information” to women 24 hours prior to their procedures.
The actual pertinence […]

The continuing exploits of the fetus-lovers

Echidne’s views on the misogynist subtext of the story about the middle-schooler who recently miscarried on a plane precisely mirror my own.
In case you missed it: 14-year-old kid is unwitting host to opportunistic growth. Growth becomes non-viable, and is summarily expelled by kid’s body while en route from New York to Houston on airliner. Kid […]

The new virgin menace

There’s a virgin at Harvard.
Unusual, perhaps, but still, no big whoop, right?
Wrong! It’s such a big whoop that the New York Times Magazine has run a story on her. In order to vaguely sort of ridicule her. Because no matter what a woman does in this world, it’s the wrong fucking thing. Especially if […]

Saudi cleric lacks clue re: origin of social strife

PZ Myers is so hot right now! I check his blog, like, every 13 minutes. And lo, he rewards me, not with a nice picture of some wacky octopus, but with another godawful story about what he calls “daughter-slaughtering monsters” in Saudi Arabia. Yeesh.
Seems that Dude became so enraged when he discovered his daughter chatting […]

Run, Mrs Wadley, run!

Via a forwarded email, my longtime chum Peckman calls my attention to the following letter to the editor on the subject of honky wish fulfillment.
From yesterday’s Daily Oklahoman, “Oklahoma’s Newspaper since 1907” (i.e., since the mass treaty violation of Oklahoma statehood):
Very blessed
My wife, an American Indian, has changed my mind about her ancestry. Every […]

Dallas fleabag motels packed to rafters as news of legal child sexploitation hits pedophile message boards

Whether this remarkable story has excursed the borders of Texas I know not, but just in case: Pedophiles Rights Activists are hooking up with the Sex Work Empowers Us, Bitch! contingent to dance in the streets and swill Natural Light in cans. That’s right; Dude Nation’s right to leer at degraded pubescent girls in the […]

Name That Misogynist! Queensland Edition

And now for Name That Misogynist!, I Blame the Patriarchy’s new assholes-in-the-news quiz. It’s easy to play. I rip a story from the headlines, and you Name That Misogynist! Let’s begin!
[Mr X] yesterday admitted he was told of the alleged rape of a nurse on Mabuiag Island in the Torres Strait two days after it […]

Spinster aunt quotes self

Time is short this morning, so today’s item will consist largely of a comment I posted yesterday on Feministing, which comment more or less summarizes my previously published ideas on the concept of “consent” as it relates to women and rape, so those of you who are tired of that crap should probably look for […]
