What is this internalised misogyny of which you speak? Is it widespread?

Good on her. I don’t know why people have such a hard time admitting to their internalized -isms. I often admit to being sexist, racist and homophobic and people look at me like I’m insane, but the truth of the matter is that most of us are a little bit, and the best way to improve is to be honest with yourself. Being…
Those same sons wanted Ailes out too so it’s definitely encouraging to see that at least the junior Murdochs understand that optics are crucial. I mean, racist misogynist douchebags will exist anyway but at the very least we can stop allowing them major platforms from which to spew their rhetoric.
Stephen Colbert genuinely did this - played a character who held views different from his own, under his name, in a performance art way. But the line between real person and character could be found in out of character interviews, in winking aspects of the show, in it’s clearly delineated beginning and end times, his…

People also thought that women lacked the mental fortitude to do long distance running. So not only were we a physical risk, but we were also considered to be too mentally weak. Nevertheless women persisted.
Testicular torsion is one of my favorite sounding phrases. Something about alliteration and the reminder of how supremely delicate supposed source of masculinity really is. Sorry guys.
I feel like there’s a certain breed of insecure man who needs to feel like men are “better” than women just so he’s automatically better than someone.
But he only wanted to protect her health: hence why he violently shoved her out the way.
Deadspin proves that those men still exist and think that even when women have their own sports organizations they’re still useless and unnecessary and an affront to their respective sports.
I really love the level of concern-trolling required to believe a woman’s uterus would just drop straight out of her body if she ran too much.
In the middle of the race, Semple tried to shove Switzer and physically pull her out. “He was pulling at me and screaming, ‘Get the hell out of my race and give me that number,’” Switzer told Deadspin in 2015. “Arnie was screaming at Jock, and then Tom smashed Jock out of the way.”
Rapey university doesn’t want anti-rape education to get too specific. Wouldn’t want to hurt the feeling/s of any rapists and sexual assailants.
The only way to resolve these issues, besides writing letters and protesting, is to vote the Regressives out in local, state, and federal offices. Never let them have the majority EVER again. The Democratic party needs reformation but it’s the only party that can save us right now. You want conservatives and trolls…
I read somewhere that more Republican white men get caught in restrooms committing nefarious or illegal sexual acts than any other demographic. This lead me to the conclusion that they are stuck on this kind of legislation more for self preservation. Heaven forbid they sexually assault the “wrong” gendered person than…
“Excuse me, ma’am? Ma’am!? Do you have a minute to discuss ethics in gaming journalism?” MA’AM?!?”
I was on my high school's first girls' cross country team in 1981. The couple of us interested had to stand in the halls and beg passersby, asking if they would like to be on the team. All we needed were five girls and we got exactly five girls. The school didn't provide our uniforms, we had to buy shirts from the…
I find it amazing/hilarious that a nicely tucked-in uterus caused them more concern than two exposed, free-swinging, highly-sensitive balls.
Unfortunately, stupid attitudes haven’t really changed in 50 years. Women were only allowed to compete in the bobsled starting in 2002 because they were deemed “fragile”.
First Cloney, outfitted in a fedora and overcoat, physically tried to stop Switzer, but she avoided his clutches.
