The Other McCain

"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

#SlutWalk OK, I Denounce Myself

Honestly, this is just so wrong: Drooptastic or saggalicious? http://t.co/q5CaS3GQvC @K8theCurst — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) September 8, 2013 It’s one of those situations where I know the joke is totally inappropriate, but the temptation . . . Ah, I used to get sent to the principal’s office all the time in school for this […]

My Nightmare and @Andria_XX’s Reality

Sunday was spent with my wife and kids at her family reunion and, I don’t know, maybe I’m feeling deadline stress on this article about the Virginia gubernatorial campaign I’m supposed to be finishing up for the next print issue of The American Spectator. Anyway, I woke up this morning after having a horrible nightmare about […]

Lubricating the Slippery Slope: The Intellectual Astroglide of the Elite

U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice Warren Burger: HATER! pic.twitter.com/WBLQHSxINS | @wgstweets @blnd_n_dngrus @DBT816 — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) August 31, 2013 Few are willing to admit the truth, namely that our cultural elite have abandoned the truth — but that is putting it too mildly. Our cultural elite, of which the editors of the Washington […]

Hard Times for Gender Studies Major

Hilarity ensued Monday after @Andria_XX complained that social-media criticism of Miley Cyrus included “bodyshaming/slutshaming” and “heteropatriarchal crap.” Readers will recall that Andria has an “Honors BA in Social Justice and Peace Studies” and is pursuing a Master’s degree in Gender Studies. So . . . how’s that going? “I have a honors BA and I’m […]

Bitches Be Cray-Cray: A Heteropatriarchal Theory of Non-Transformative Justice

Otherwise known as the Anglo-American common-law tradition, I figure glitzing up the Rule of Law in fancy intellectual jargon might give it the academic oomph necessary to compete with this crazy crap: In the wake of the Trayvon Martin verdict, Chicago has seen several public events and workshops exploring its aftermath. On Aug. 15, queer […]

Well, I Shouldn’t Disappoint Pete

Da Tech Guy is disappointed that I didn’t take up his earlier challenge to address the fakeness of the 1973 Billy Jean King/Bobby Riggs “Battle of the Sexes” tennis match, but as I said, I recognized it as hype at the time. Although I didn’t know the fix was in — because Bobby Riggs owed […]

‘And It Just Blew Up’

Heteropatriarchal slut-shaming? Hell, I thought I was just making fun of a celebrity, until @Andria_XX enlightened me, and she had no idea what hit her when her Twitter timeline blew up with reactions to her Master’s degree in Gender Studies mini-lecture. So now it’s “cyberbullying” and “rage tourism” of which I’m accused. .@rsmccain @AmPowerBlog According […]

In Case You Missed It, @MileyCyrus Got Super-Skanky on the VMAs Last Night

Of course, I didn’t watch MTV’s Video Music Awards, but the morning news shows were running . . . er, highlights of her performance, from which I gather that the name of her latest hit song is, “Do Me in the Butt, Total Stranger, Because I Need Money to Get Me Some Meth.” OK, I’m […]
