Giant sucking backlash from hell
My little feminist pirate ship of the mind is encountering some rough swells this week. The Backlash is strong upon us, and every time I turn around I get another whopper in the face and up my damn nose. I can’t even read my Google news feed. We got Michelle Obama doing her best impression [...]
Alpaca picture
These aren’t really alpacas, of course. They’re moose calves. Sleeping moose calves. But readers of this blog know that “alpaca picture” is just an ontological category meaning something like “feminist pirate escape ship because I’m going batshit crazy here.” So! Moose! Yon picture of sleeping moose calves is from the Kostroma moose farm in Russia, [...]
Please oh please let this misogynist bitch from hell give up her daughter for adoption
It’s no secret that in a misogynistic patriarchal society, many women are thoroughly indoctrinated with a hatred of their own gender. Those women should not have daughters. I was blog-cruising last night and discovered, via PunkAssBlog, this horrifying piece of shit: Why I didn’t want a girl. It’s by a misogynist bitch who found out [...]

Obama was sent here by God as a kind of catharsis-inducing hypocrisy-detector, designed to expose the misogyny of those who worship him while simultaneously reviling (in explicitly sexist terms) women who hold similar political positions. I mean, it’s gotta be that, right? Here’s the [...]
Marilyn French quotes
As most of you have probably heard by now, Marilyn French has departed to the Spirit Smoking Lounge. Here are some of the things she said before she left: “My goal in life is to change the entire social and economic structure of western civilization, to make it a feminist world.” “I was always a [...]
Naomi Wolf: still dumber than a sack of rocks
First graf from her piece in today’s Washington Post: Look at Michelle Obama: She has segued seamlessly from an active professional life as a highly paid hospital executive to her current incarnation as fashion plate, doting mom and demure sex object, posing for Vogue in a hot fuchsia frock that shows plenty of skin. What’s [...]
Announcement
I am no longer with The New Agenda and am no longer editing the website. (See Daltrey, Roger.) Just so you know and people will stop emailing me to post something over there or tend to something that needs tending.
