So much work is done by the insistence that all violence is structural except for men’s violence against women, which is cast as a personal, private conflict between individuals.

That it took our highest court to overturn acquittals speaks volumes about need for #judicial education at the lower court levels.

The judges should be embarrassed.

We are embarrassed for them as all #Canadians should be.

Political celibacy or even just de-centering men are great options for women, but we should not fall victim to the liberal tendency to focus solely on individual lifestyle choices. We also need to organize the masses and work for the collective liberation of all women.

I don’t think we’re grappled enough with the psychic and dignity harm women have experienced in having a rapist elevated to a position of superlative power and authority by half the country and then kept there for the better part of a decade.

In the years since 2016, antifeminism on both the left and the right has become an expression of resentment against capitalism—a mental collapsing of all feminist aspirations into a feminized vision of corporate greed. I call it a “socialism of fools.” https://t.co/OLEw93udRg

“Railed,” “destroyed,” “break her back,” “smashed,” “banged,” “rearrange her guts;” the rhetoric around sex is terrifying as is the fact that men can't imagine sex without relating it to violence in some way.

The many faces of #femicide.

The loss of potential just in this event beyond imagination.

The loss globally of all girls and women being lost a #pandemic with no adequate responses from our leaders.

You can disguise in discussions about #KnifeaAttack but we #CallItFemicide.

nothing captures your cool, un-nerdy demeanor quite like obsessing over how gen z girls are dumb prudes and insisting that your 20s were soo crazy and you had so much sex in unrelated discussions

the detail of this muscle embroidery is just nuts.

@lyzl Womenms selves, women’s ambitions, women’s identities and personal qualities—somehow these are always considered uniquely disposable, and the valuation of them uniquely suspect.

The birth rate has fallen in the US because women have more rights and opportunities—this is always why birth rates fall. It is creepy that the organs of elite consensus are all agreeing that this trend has to be reversed.

Being 23 and spending even 5 seconds around high school seniors makes you be like ok so every man was absolutely lying about 18 year olds “looking mature” . Like those are clearly children actually but
