Because @kmcdonovgh Knows You’re a Victim of Heteronormative Patriarchy
Salon.com assistant editor Katie McDonough: Evangelical Christianity makes visible — through purity pledges and doctrine assigning women the role of man’s “helpmate” — the norms and expectations about female virginity and subservience that so often remain hidden in the secular world. While it may be tempting to draw a red line around Christian fundamentalist views […]
‘The Second Time as Farce’: @sandraylk’s Recycled Marcusean Marxism
Sandra Korn: Feminist socialist lesbian — but I repeat myself. “If our university community opposes racism, sexism, and heterosexism, why should we put up with research that counters our goals simply in the name of ‘academic freedom’? “Instead, I would like to propose a more rigorous standard: one of ‘academic justice.’ When an academic community […]
‘Feminist Dogma’
The claim by radical feminists that heterosexuality is a form of oppression imposed on women by male violence — “PIV is always rape, OK?” — has shocked many people who don’t pay attention to trends among intellectuals in academia. Yet this extreme anti-male view has been “mainstream” among feminists for many years: The [1998] Houghton […]
Evil Triumphs as @Clementine_Ford Misquotes Edmund Burke
There are rumors that Australian feminist Clementine Ford has read books, but no one has verified this, and it may be idle gossip. What Ms. Ford unquestionably has in abundance, however, is the certainty of her own intellectual and moral superiority, so that we — the unenlightened and flawed — are expected to be grateful […]
Miracles Still Happen
Perhaps my method — relentless sarcasm — is not ideal, but somebody’s got to be Andy Sipowicz. Jesus gets to be the “Good Cop”: As a professor of English and women’s studies, on the track to becoming a tenured radical, I cared about morality, justice, and compassion. Fervent for the worldviews of Freud, Hegel, Marx, […]

Professor Dee Graham: The Psychologist Who Drove Feminists Crazy
Remember the radfem blogger who says all heterosexual intercourse (PIV, penis-in-vagina) is rape? Sure you do. Well, it turns out that her insane theories are secondhand madness, as it were, and one of her main sources of lunacy is a book published 20 years ago by a trio of feminists, the lead author being Dee […]
‘If It Was a Rape, It Was Good Rape’
“One of the contributors [to a 1993 feminist essay collection], Doris C. DeHardt, a feminist therapist . . . thinks that ‘feminist marriage is, like military intelligence, an oxymoron.’ . . . [M]ost of the lesbian contributors took no pains to conceal their sense of superiority at living perfectly coherent feminist lives.” — Daphne Patai, […]
