Janice Fiamengo: Fakery, Posing, and Madness - Feminism Comes of Age in the 1960s

Professor of English, Janice Fiamengo, began as a committed feminist. But gradually began to question the ideology, and has ended up completely disavowing it.

Her studies of feminism's history make fascinating reading. Here, she looks at the 1960s - with privileged women like Betty Friedan. Gloria Steinem and Kate Millet coming forward to shape the Second Wave, while men in the glass cellar jobs, making their privileged world of illusion and hate possible, died in great numbers - completely ignored.

Cancer Research UK: Race For Life - So Sexist It's Evil!

Image
I sat on the bus a few years back and saw a poster on there for Cancer Research UK's Race For Life. Two women, in boxing gloves, about to punch a man. The message was horrendously explicit: Men are a cancer, women are fighting it. "Don't talk so daft!" you might say. OK, let's reverse the idea. A poster for a male-only charity run, showing two men about to punch a woman. The are men are running to help "beat cancer". Would that be all right? Of course it wouldn't. So much of the feminine saintliness and past oppression "facts" beloved of many "women's rights" activists is built on shifty statistics and twisted facts. Take Emmeline Pankhurst. Such a heroine! Really? Then why did she support votes for wealthy women only? Why would she never go into prison for activist misdeeds, but let others do so? Why did she harass men to go to war? Just what was this woman? Not a saint, not by any means. In fact, far...

Nicole Jacob - Feminist Misandrist & Domestic Abuse Commissioner for England & Wales

Image
One could ask why, in the so-called UK, the vast majority of people in England and Wales are served by one Domestic Abuse Commissioner and London and Scotland have separate ones? Nice gravy train. It's a gravy train for Feminists only, with Nicole Jacob, the current incumbent, being the latest in a line of male abusing, own-gender adoring women to occupy the role. Ms Jacob thinks the Violence Against Women  & Girls Act is a fine thing, and absolutely justified. It's pure evil. It throws not only men under the bus, but little boys, children, too. But Ms Jacob ignores all comments questioning her stance on her Twitter/X threads and carries on regardless. Today, it looks evil. In the future, when this era is exhumed by future historians, it will look far worse. Ms Jacob is surrounded by Feminist ideologues - like smirking Jess Phillips - and she smirks her well-heeled way through life, stealing the public's money by not doing her job and behaving like some kind of Nazi. He...

Penny Mordaunt, 'UK' Government - Women Have More Rights Than Men, But Penny Has Her Head Stuck Up Her Own Sex's Backside...

Image
Penny Mordaunt, now, amazingly, Leader of the House of Commons, is a narcissistic Feminist of the lowest order. And on Twitter she has recently been bringing up the usual illogical claptrap - unquestioned in our land of chivalry and matriarchy:  Today the Leader @PennyMordaunt hosted parliamentarians and civil society leaders working to protect and enhance women's rights and democracy here in the UK and across the world. We are working to create the networks and tools we need to support this fight. Um, well, firstly, women have more rights in the UK than men. Seriously. And if you're going to try and gaslight us about 'historical wrongs', please don't bother. We've read the true facts about the vote, thank you. The suffragettes were often violent, misandrist terrorists. The vote was never simply a right without accountability - many men had the accountabilities but not the vote. Men die younger than women. Women have 'all women shortlists' for posh job...
