A Woman’s Place Is In The House (of Representatives)
This is from an actual newsletter sent from the Republican party in Ohio. It’s referencing the OH-13 House race, where the incumbent is Betty Sutton. I know I keep seeing polls that show Democrats are in trouble in November. Sometimes, though, I have a hard time taking it seriously – specific Republicans are a lot […]
John Derbyshire Takes A Brave Stand Against Women’s Suffrage
National Review’s John Derbyshire has a book coming out soon called We Are Doomed: Reclaiming Conservative Pessimism. In the book Derbyshire makes an argument for repealing women’s voting rights in a section called “The Case Against Female Suffrage.” Derbyshire was interviewed by Alan Colmes and Colmes pressed him about this section of the book: DERBYSHIRE: […]
Women Rule!
Politico has the scoop on a new study coming out of Stanford and the University of Chicago showing that in general, women lawmakers are better legislators than their male counterparts. Effectiveness was judged by the number of bills introduced, the number of co-sponsors for those bills (probably an indication of the popularity of the bill) […]
Being A Lady Means Never Having Any Fun
Eva Lorraine Molina at Townhall brings us a morality tale of how feminism is ruining women and means they’ll never get married. The feminist movement’s war on conservatism in America has killed chivalry and trained too many women to think and act like men. As a result, many young conservative women do not know what […]
Bob Herbert’s Column Today Is A Must Read
We haven’t talked on Delaware Liberal about George Sodini, the right-wing misogynist who killed three women at a fitness club in Pittsburgh. He wrote some very disturbing things on his blog about race and women. Sodini was obsessed with women and sex and how he wasn’t getting his fair share (according to him). Hint: it […]
Why Don’t We Talk About The Real Victims – Fallen Politicians?
Last week’s News Journal brings us this wacky letter to the editor: I enjoyed your June 26 editorial pointing out politically prominent men involved in adulterous relationships. There are many more, each representing hundreds of column inches of newsprint taking the same approach: “ain’t it awful” – “poor wronged wife” – “ruined career.” Other aspects […]
Suck It, Phyllis Schlafly*
How It Works (from the fabulous xkcd)
First, let me explain the title reference. As most of you know, I am a chemist. As a chemist I am a member of the American Chemical Society (ACS).
Products Targeted to Women Generally Tick Me Off
There’s a new candy bar being introduced, and it’s targeted to women. Here are some of the descriptions: Try it in public. A chocolate bar that shimmers. Definitely eat it with the lights on. Finally a chocolate you don’t feel so guilty about eating. Under 85 calories per finger. That’s a sexy little figure. Just […]
Feminist-Approved Insults
As we discussed yesterday in my inaugural post, sometimes common expressions grate on feminists the wrong way. The main objection is to describing things that are undesirable in feminine terms, most especially terms for the female anatomy. Listen, I know it’s a hard habit to break because it is so pervasive (that’s the problem!) so […]
