George R. R. Martin, author of the A Song of Ice and Fire book cycle that birthed hit tv show Game of Thrones, is not a fan of fan-fiction. Because, he says, it’s lazy and bad writing. “You have to invent your own characters, you have to do your
righttolife.org.uk During the ‘March for Choice’ held in London last year, a small group of pro-abortion protestors loudly sang “We need abortions, because it’s quite alright” to the tune of 1960s ballad “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You“. In 2019, they sang the same version of
Transgenderism has to be the biggest own goal in the history of feminism. Not that feminism isn’t littered with own goals: for all the gains that women undeniably made in the first, and to a lesser extent the second, waves of the movement, there is plenty of evidence that
I have some good memories of the Girl Guides. I understand that that statement may take some explaining: I was, in fact, a Cub and then a Scout in my youth, but my Mum was a Guides leader. She was thoroughly dedicated to her role and was a beloved figure
When I write about the push to normalise paedophilia, many people find it hard to believe that such a thing could ever come to be. I wish I could be so sure. I certainly grant that it’s a longer march than any the rainbow left have led us down
Planned Parenthood is one of the unassailable demigods of the American left. No matter how vile an organisation it continually proves itself to be. Even leaving aside the vexed question of the right or wrongs of abortion per se, Planned Parenthood is, on its own actions, just a nasty piece
We’re constantly subjecting to feminine caterwauling about “gender gaps”, these days. “Gender wage gap”, “gender sports gap”, even a “Wikipedia gender gap”. What’s noticeable about most of these “gaps” is that they’re almost exclusively the concern of well-off, university-educated, professional women. It’s almost like these fishwives
Maybe the Scots are too used to men wearing dresses, or maybe it’s the fact that they’re ruled by literal national socialists: whatever the reason, there’s some strange business afoot, north of the wall. Not the least of which is the official assertion that rapists with penises
Has anyone noticed just how creepy the new wave of “transgender women” so often are? I mean, there’ve always been drag queens and transvestites: but most of them were adamant that they were men, albeit homosexual men who dressed in women’s clothing. There were also a persistent minority
Have you ever noticed that the loudest woke screechers are almost invariably the most privileged? We have the likes of Barack Obama lecturing working shmos about their “privilege” from any one of his mansions. Then there’s the odious Megan Rapinoe. Sporting a perpetual sourpuss, the purple-haired harridan — whose own
It was probably inevitable the French would fiercely resist the slide into pronoun wokeism — or wokisme, as they call it, across the Channel. After all, not only are the French fiercely protective of their language, but the whole nonsense of “gender theory” is an academic lunacy dreamt up in that
mercatornet.com I am a French mother whose teenage daughter recently announced to me that she was gender dysphoric and wanted hormones. Being left-wing politically oriented, a feminist, and sensitive to the rights of minorities, I first thought my daughter had to be supported in the difficult path to transition.
You gotta love it when someone inadvertently shoots themselves in the foot. As I reported recently, a single tweet by race-baiting academic, Ibrahim X. Kendi, one of the leading voice of so-called “Critical Race Theory”, demolished one of the key platforms of his ludicrous, hateful ideology. Kendi tweeted the news
If transgender activists really wanted to convince us that they’re not mentally ill, they could start by not acting like unhinged psychopaths all the time. Just sayin’. Of course, I’m not saying that all trannies are violent loonies, but, hoo boy, I’ve not seen so many swivel-eyed
If, as activists insist, “gender is just a construct”, and hulking “transgender women” enjoy no unfair physical advantage over actual women in sports, then why are so many people outraged about an inter-gender Mixed Martial Arts competition? After all, shouldn’t it just prove the transgenderists’ point that men can
Have you ever noticed just how utterly bourgie the left are? Despite their claiming to champion the proles, it’s glaringly obvious that the ranks of the left are solidly middle-class. From the posh private-school-blazers at School Climate Strikes to the XR protesters shouting in decidedly posh accents at working-class
