Do I have time to write a post today? Hell, no! So I’m re-publishing an excerpt from one of Helen Huntingdon’s comments on the recent ultra-controversial science post. Do I have time to link to the specific comment? Hell, no! To read the whole thing, type “Helen Huntingdon” into the new search engine (over there …
Category Archive: Dear god what about the men?
Men think the feminists will benefit from their unique dudely perspective. But trust me, if there’s anything any woman knows better than the back of her hand, it’s the dudely perspective. So just put a sock in it, bra.

More Adventures with the Antithesis of Enlightenment
Over at Gizmodo, Dude Nation 2.0 is having a little tantrum. It seems Apple recently removed from its App Store something called Wobble, “an app that adds animated jiggles to photo breasts.” Since then, in a kind of Night of the Long iKnives, a veritable buttload of cheezy porn apps have been purged. Including the …

There are molecules in the brain called “neurotransmitters”
Because of my award-nominated, it-is-highly-unlikely-that-you-are-qualified-to-post-here moderation policy — “Old Iron-Fist” is what they call me down at Spinster HQ — readers of I Blame the Patriarchy aren’t always exposed to mansplaining at standard Internet concentrations. I sometimes wonder if this is really all to the good, since mansplaining can be so goddam hilarious, and who …

Husband and wife blog team on board with antifeminist backlash even though it’s so 20 years ago
Wait. I have a blog? Shitfire! But wow, check out this dumb blog. It’s one of those blogs that has “book deal” written all over it.

Spinster aunt emerges from self-help section with inferior selection

I have to confess that, in reading this book, Little White Whys: A Woman’s Guide …

Hugs, Twisty: “I just need to commandeer your uterus for a sec.”
Rejected comment from reader bilbertson on an August, 2007 post entitled UterusWatch 2007, in which I discuss a couple of legislative efforts to restrict women’s access to abortion, one of which required written consent of the “father”: [Dear Twisty] I know I’m commenting on this much later than it was posted but I hope readers …

Spinster aunt explains comedy
Whenever I hear some guy say that feminists don’t have a sense of humor, I want to punch that guy in the neck. What I mean is, I want to take a bunch of tiny razors and glue’em to a glove, kind of around the knuckle area, and put on this glove and then punch …

OzWatch ’09: Misogyny on Parade
Displaying an astonishing capacity for patriarchy-blaming, somebody in charge of public education in Victoria AU wishes to implement anti-violence-against-women training in a couple of schools. It’s called “Respectful Relationship Education.” Possible classroom activities include students acting out scenes of sexual coercion after which students would suggest more appropriate behaviour.

Hugs, Twisty: moderated dude yearns to be heard on feminist blog

We begin with a charming instance of Whataboutthemen?! appearing this morning on the Atlantic’s website.
