Tumblr Feminism: Is It Worth $3?

  As a digital property, Tumblr is “effectively worthless,” according to financial analysts. The site’s lack of commercial value, however, does not prevent it from being a major platform for the dissemination of feminist ideology. This quote from Gail Dines, for example, was liked and reblogged nearly 3,000 times, and no one inside this online […]

$400 in 24 Hours (UPDATE: Thanks!)

Not much time to explain this, but I’m rattling the tip jar today because I need $400 by Friday morning. My youngest daughter has a school trip coming up and I promised my wife I’d raise the $200 needed by Friday. Then the cable company — our Internet service provider — demanded more than $200 […]

Emergency Tip-Jar Appeal

Going gonzo on the campaign trail in Iowa, January 2012. Y’know, sometimes, I can almost sympathize with the socialist Bernie Sanders/Occupy Wall Street crowd — almost, I say, because it is morally wrong to scapegoat “the rich” (however one defines that term) for the problems of the poor which, at the present moment, is defined […]

You Did It! Thank You!

Daughter Reagan working on the thank-you card list. Late Friday, I put up an appeal for $900 to enable our family to travel to our oldest daughter’s home for Thanksgiving. By Saturday afternoon, I could report to the family that we would meet that goal. Our youngest daughter, 13-year-old Reagan, has been assigned to send […]

Fear and Loathing: Three Days, $900, and It’s Morning in Vanuatu Again

Army Bob Takes a Bride

Earlier this year, my son Bob and his girlfriend came to visit us for Easter. Bob has been in the Army since 2013 and, while stationed at Fort Bragg, met a lovely girl named Johanna who is an art student (she does video animation). While they were visiting, Bob invited Johanna to hike up to […]

Feminism: A Problem, Not a Solution

The Ivy League Is DecadentĀ and Depraved, as I reminded readers a few weeks ago, and you’ll pardon me for quoting myself, but the evidence of elite depravity keeps slapping me in the face. Adriana Miele is a senior at Yale University: Brunch is the ideal time to do it. Dinner is usually too crowded, and […]

Feminism’s Attack on ‘Institutionalized, Normative Heterosexuality’

If you’ve read my book Sex Trouble, you understand how I focus on the gap between feminism’s exoteric discourse (what feminists say when seeking support from the general public) and feminism’s esoteric doctrine (the beliefs shared among intellectuals and activists who lead and control the movement). Like other movements of the radical Left, feminism preaches […]
