How is she a national reporter and for that matter how is anyone younger than say 26 a national reporter.

It just feels like women get drowned out in our own spaces, and then something like this comes out, and we find out at least one of our allies was against at least some of us all along.

A guy once had a post on the Double XX blog. I was seeing red. The majority of male op-ed writers at major newspapers isn’t enough? We need a guy on a feminist blog now?

Their presence actively prohibits me from engaging sometimes, but their general attitude makes me almost certain that mentioning it, even in a neutral way, would be a bigger snafu than I am prepared to sign up for.

Uuuugh, ugh ugh ugh just even THINKING of MacInnes or his name or his stinktard face— just makes my throat close up. He’s a vile little homunculus. I wish I could claim more surprise to hear this news, too.

Wow, I mean, that’s SUCH a new joke, isn’t it? I mean, I’ve sure never heard it before, boy howdy, nope. Fat feminists, haha, wow, sick burn.

Lindy West flosses harder things than Milo from out between her teeth every morning.

Ehh, go fuck your priest, Milo, you washed-up little rentboy. Next.

Vice was founded by a fucking misogynistic white supremacist (though don’t say that when he’s within earshot or he’ll sue you) so how is any of this surprising?

Milo is speaking for weak White males, gay or straight, who get off on humiliating others.

I have White women at my work who have told they don’t trust decades old White friends now. DECADES.

Right there with you. I truly feel for all PoC and will never stop working for equality for us all, but I don’t mind being called Becky and told to go sit down. I wouldn’t trust me any more than I trust men right now.

Yes. This is my takeaway from this whole week as well. No wonder feminism has stalled. “Progressive” men cannot be trusted.

This is so correct. His first reaction was to hit back at her, hard, because she dared to say who she was. That was so threatening to him and his worldview that he had to make sure she was mocked, but didn’t have the fortitude to do it himself. I hope he never works again.

In the same way that I don’t want even an exceptionally qualified male OBGYN, I don’t really feel, idk if “comfortable” is the right word, but I guess it just seems a little out of place to see male writers on sites for women. As in, geared toward women and the experiences of women, but still need a man to explain…

Who are all these gay guys he thinks he’s speaking for? Milo shares a narcissistic trait with Trump: projecting his own ugly worldview onto others (“Many people say...”).

Trust no ally.

Did Milo buy all of those books himself? Because he’s selling like shit. Oh, right - because he is a piece of shit, not that that’s stopping a third of this country from rushing out to spend money proving they’re assholes.

Lindy’s resilience, strength, and tremendous writing are aspirational.

As per usual, all of these people can go fuck themselves. Wow, insulting fat feminists! That sure is a burning hot take.
