Sanesha Stewart is dead and I have only tears and frustration for her
A man named Steve McMillian apparently stabbed Sanesha Stewart to death on Saturday morning. Who was she? She lived in the Bronx. She was tall and femme and well-liked by her neighbors. She was a client at the law project where I volunteer, but I never met her myself. Some of my colleagues helped her [...]

Anti-Choicers Defeat Birth Control Bill in South Dakota
A South Dakota bill that would have given women easier access to contraception and taken substantial steps to decrease the unintended pregnancy and abortion rate was defeated in the state senate — by “pro-life” legislators. The Birth Control Protection Act said South Dakotans have the freedom to obtain and use safe and effective methods of [...]

From someone calling himself* “Fuck all you fat crazy feminists”: All you crazy cunts need to get a clue. Women are not mentally capable of ruling. Hell you can barely think straight enough to drive cars. The rest of the time you spend running from mice. Just so you know – you will never be [...]

You’ve gotta hand it to the assholes over at Hot Air — just when they couldn’t get any more trite, racist and misogynist, they do. Thanks to Matt for the link.

Oh noes! Not pink underwear!
He likes to call himself “America’s Toughest Sheriff,” but he might as well be called “America’s Most Opportunistic Publicity Hound And Misogynist.” Yep, Joe Arpaio, Sheriff of Maricopa County in Arizona, has crawled out from under his rock to bask in the television lights because the Superbowl’s comin’ to town, and he wants to be [...]

Chris Matthews claims that he isn’t obsessed with Hillary Clinton and other female politicians — but for someone who could care less, he sure does talk about them a lot. Head over there and read the very damning evidence. My personal favorite Matthews comment: “[S]he’s clapping, like she’s Chinese. I know the Chinese clap at [...]

This. With Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton’s win in New Hampshire, gender issues are suddenly in the news. Where has everybody been? If there was ever a story that deserved more coverage by the news media, it’s the dark persistence of misogyny in America. Sexism in its myriad destructive forms permeates nearly every aspect of American [...]

That cartoon I posted about below isn’t the first, or even the worst, of the overtly misogynistic cartoons Oliphant has turned out this year. I’m with Scott — I need a shower after looking at the collection that Mithras has put together. You know, sometimes I wonder if we overuse the “Assholes” tag here, but [...]

Chris Matthews and the Chorus of Eunuchs*
But where are her castration sheers? It’s no secret that Chris Matthews is a semi-professional misogynist, but Hillary Clinton’s run for president has brought his castration anxiety out in full force. Using overtly sexist language, he has referred to Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) as a “she devil” and compared her to a “strip-teaser.” He [...]

Clinton won the New Hampshire primary yesterday, proving that rumors of her demise were greatly exaggerated. Which is encouraging, if only from the perspective of someone who lives in a state with a late primary: the whole damn thing doesn’t have to be over after one small state votes, or even two. Some of the [...]
