Campus Feminists and the Rape Shortage

  More than 17,000 students attend the University at Albany-SUNY. Feminists insist that 1-in-5 college women are victims of rape on campus, and this statistic presents a bit of a problem for Carol Stenger, director of the university’s Advocacy Center for Sexual Assault. Last year there were only 28 reports of sexual assault at SUNY-Albany […]

Moving the Goalposts: What Feminist ‘Rape Culture’ Discourse Is About

“But the hatred of women is a source of sexual pleasure for men in its own right. Intercourse appears to be the expression of that contempt in pure form, in the form of a sexed hierarchy; it requires no passion or heart because it is power without invention articulating the arrogance of those who do […]

A Bizarre Blast From the Feminist Past

Researching radical feminism has led me to many strange sources, few of them stranger than For Lesbians Only: A Separatist Anthology, edited by Sarah Lucia Hoagland and Julia Penelope, a 596-page compendium of lunacy published in 1988. Weird ideas leap forth from every page, as if the inmates of a mental health facility had been […]

Feminist Tumblr and the ‘Tampon Tax’

  Behold the irrefutable logic of Feminist Tumblr: Tampons and other ‘feminine hygiene’ products are taxed. Women have to pay taxes just to be able to have our periods. So if any anti feminist complains about women in regards to money (or anything really) just tell him: “As a female tax payer my tampon taxes […]

‘The Psychology of Female Objectification’

Harvard University sophomore Lily Calcagnini. “Each time a woman is catcalled, publicly humiliated, and forced to ignore it, the psychology of female objectification becomes evermore seared into the brains of all actors and bystanders involved. We’re already conditioned to look at a woman and see the raw sum of her physical components before we consider […]

Harvard Feminists Lie About Rape

An anti-rape protest at Harvard University. No honest, decent or moral young person would ever want to go near Harvard University, a corrupt and decadent institution run by depraved perverts. Harvard women are particularly notorious for their shameless promiscuity — one Harvard girl boasted of her “freedom to have as many sexual partners as I […]

The #AmberRoseSlutWalk: Feminism as Public Celebration of Inchoate Rage

  Before attempting to describe Saturday’s event in Los Angeles — a tawdry carnival of celebrity-driven feminist lunacy — I must first remind you how, when and where the “Slut Walk” movement began. In January 2011, a Toronto police official, Constable Michael Sanguinetti, gave a presentation on the topic of crime prevention at York University, […]

The Intersectional Oppression Derby

Feminist Tumblr is home to strange people: I’m a white, queer, (more specifically bi/pan), 20-something genderweird woman-type person (still figuring out what the deal is with my gender). I use she/her pronouns. This blog talks about relationships through an inclusive feminist lens, as well as joining in discussion on other feminist topics. Not a TERF/SWERF […]
