I’ve spent the last few years trying to be nice to people spreading what I consider pernicious anti-male attitudes about sex and reproduction throughout the “manosphere.” As feminism is increasingly culturally on the defensive, and even conservatives are starting to notice men need to have reasons other than “duty” to want to be with women, and as the concept of “Men’s...
On January 14th and 15th there will be a men’s conference at the UN. Sounds great—finally men will get a voice, right? Right … ?It sounds good until you hear that the #HeforShe spokeswoman is working with Iceland in hosting this.…
The dose makes the poison.
One of the very useful memes that has come out of the gender discourse in the last few years is a discussion of “toxic masculinity,” or the traditional masculinity that teaches little boys to make themselves disposable for the sake of women (I know what the inventors of the term meant, and even though they didn’t mean that, that’s what they meant .…
Next in my continuing series of Disney Junior cartoon reviews is the extremely female-friendly, very much girrl power Doc McStuffins. The basis of the show concerns a little girl who goes by the nickname “Doc” and acts as a doctor to stuffed animals and toys.…

I was not raised a celebrity. I can say that my life has been very different from yours. I am a woman living in America. I have not attended a fine university like Brown, as you did. I have known abuse, I have been molested. I have known hardship and depression.…
Encyclopedia Dramatica explains Gamergate as one seedy game designer’s dramatic exposure of “wide scale collusion in the indie game industry, benefiting developers, reviewers, journalists, and everyone else involved. That is, everyone except for you, the gamer.”…
It has become quite commonplace for the folks who embody “girrl power” to criticize every bit of media in terms of whether girls are being aptly represented (to their standards, of course). It is especially common for them to chastise children’s shows, as the viewership is young and impressionable.…

But sometimes there are things said that are exceptionally bad.…
