Shared by:daenigma100
A collection of essays from best-selling author and founder of the Everyday Sexism Project, Laura Bates.
Laura Bates, pioneering feminist, activist and best-selling author, has given voice to hundreds of thousands of women through her international Everyday Sexism Project. Drawing attention to both hidden and blatant sexist acts and attitudes, Laura has exposed the startling truth behind misogyny in our society: systemic, ingrained and ignored.
From Weinstein to Westminster, a torrent of allegations of sexual harassment and assault have left us reeling. One hundred years since some women were first given the right to vote, we are still struggling to get to grips with the true extent of gender inequality that continues to flourish in our society.
In this collection of essays, originally published in The Guardian, Laura Bates uncovers the sexism that exists in our relationships, in our workplaces, in our media, in our homes and on our streets but which is also firmly rooted in our lifelong assumptions and in the actions and attitudes we explain away, defend and accept. Often dismissed as one-offs, veiled as ‘banter’ or described as ‘isolated incidents’, Misogynation joins the dots to reveal the true scale of discrimination and prejudice women face.
A bold, witty and incisive analysis of current events, Misogynation makes a passionate argument for stepping back, opening our eyes and allowing ourselves to see the bigger picture.

Me and my wife’s boyfriend really enjoyed this book!

The words “written by a pioneering feminist” and that it was written by a woman should tell you all you need to know. This is biased, man-hating feminazi dyke propaganda.

“originally published in The Guardian,” enough said!

If I want a woman’s opinion, I’ll give it to her…

This could very well prove to be one of those controversial uploads you get from time to time to time. With a great deal of “who do you think you are” & “what’s that about my mother” and so forth, and so on.

Loving all the triggered little boys in the comments.

I was very excited to see someone turn, “in modern society, there is a huge imbalance skewed entirely towards women” into a book. Sadly, this wasn’t that book. It’s full of the usual trite and untrue cliches about men, instead.
Many of the gelded left will be along later to tell us how valuable such false insight is. Because their girlfriends will make them say it.

You will find this in your local bookshop/library in the Misandry section.

What a bunch of Crowder mug club sensibois. There are more snowflakes in this comment thread than Christmas in Alaska.

A Misandrist rant of hate and whining. Typical FemaNazi scree. The neutered boys may like this hate fest, while the “women” on the Left will like it.
I’d rather try on gloves in Macy’s basement then read more of this garbage.

Interesting how those who have their mindless opinions challenged by truth, resort to vacuous terms like “triggered little boys” and “snowflakes”, etc., without actually uttering something intelligent in rebuttal.
I love whiners who write books predicated on their estrogen-fueled emotions rather than on truth and intellect. They make the rest of us who choose to conduct our lives with facts rather than feelings, look so grounded.
Thank you for posting this. It makes me feel like finding a gaggle of strumpets to do some mansplaining to.

Feminism is cancer..
January 8th, 2020
Interesting how people preface with “interesting” just before outing themselves as dust covered sexists. Estrogen fueled aye? What could be worse than being woman-like right? You’re this generations obstructionists. When progressive culture triggers you, you’re on the wrong side of history.
Hey, comment field readers. Want to these Crowderites get real triggered. It’s not History, it’s Herstory. Boom. Can you hear the keys clacking?
You’re a bunch of Gilletteless clacksman with too much time on your hands and too little self awareness to know that you’re part of the problem. Don’t worry though, the silent majority don’t care enough to comment, so the whining minority will line up to enable your delusions and further insulate your reality.
FYI Feminism LITERALLY means equality.

Or, stick with me on this, my opinions aren’t mindless and have in fact been shaped by carefully considering truth. Maybe you should try actually learning, once in a while.
When you peddle in tired cliches about ‘women are emotional, unlike logical men’, especially when exhibiting a complete lack of logic on your part, you only reveal yourself to be a colossal dumbass.
I don’t even much care about this book. But I do find the triggered whinging utterly hilarious. Yes, whine about the author whining and review bomb the torrent with single stars. Those are totally the actions of a rational, logical people. Of course.

Oh my, these last two repeats apparently believe that they can make their cases by simply rephrasing empty arguments. Seems they never met an adjective they didn’t like — especially if context is inconsequential.
Hold on now, here comes a quote from a woman (albeit a somewhat fictional one): “The ‘lady’ doth protest too much, methinks” (talk about being triggered).
I do believe Queen Gertrude had a handle on feminine psychology. OH NO!!! Sorry, that was Queen Gertrude lip-syncing Shakespeare, who was (warning: here comes a four-letter word) male!
I’m really enjoying being “triggered.” Please come back and do it again (and could you bake some cookies while you’re at it?).
~Sincerely, your “triggered little boy,”
Testosterone Rex.

Brillo is sooooo red pill ya’ll. Can you feel the testosterone coming through the computer screen?
January 9th, 2020
Not really. I hear rational well put thoughts, that are not sexist or hormone based at all. As opposed to delusional nonsense like the misguided belief that feminism is about equality, when it demonstrably is not. It SHOULD BE. But it isnt, and never was. Even feminist know this, if they are being honest. You kind of just proved Brillo first comment perfectly. The only one that seems to be triggered is Mrs Jake.

Bitch bitch bitch….:)

I think I owe an apology to noodlezombie and jakestar.
I engaged in this spitting contest purely out of amusement — for the fun of it — ridiculing the feminist ideals they and others hold. But after considering my responses and the disrespect and contempt those responses seem to convey, the thought came to me that it was a rude and inconsiderate attitude to so strongly imply that they somehow are completely wrong and I am completely right. That is never true.
But beyond who is right and who is wrong, is the concept that being rude and speaking pejoratively concerning someone else’s opinions is unacceptable.
A quote, reputed (dubiously) to Voltaire, says that “I may not agree with a word you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.” Well, not agreeing with someone’s opinions is one thing, but expressing abuse and sarcasm against those who hold them is, in reality, a somewhat thinly camouflaged attempt to deny them the right to have those opinions.
So, this is an apology, specifically to noodlezombie and jakestar, and anyone else who may have been offended by my ad hominem abuse
— and — to any who may have been deceived into thinking my approach to this discussion was in any way appropriate. It was not.

Well, the vocal minority has spoken. Thank you Traxor, those keys won’t clack themselves. And can I just say, your screen name is perfect. I’ll respond to his convenient boogey man take on feminism but who are we kidding? He doesn’t care. Here, we go. Gender equality is the key tenant of feminism. Anyone caught up in this little drama, can you predict the intellectually dishonest response that will ensue? Everyone, get your guesses ready, mine certainly are. This is going to be… well, anticlimactic honestly. The best bit so far has been Brillo being expectantly classy. Go get yourself a Gillette razor sir, you’ve earned it.
January 11th, 2020
Also.. Mrs Jake? What could be worse than being a woman, am I right? Do we have another sexist in the comment thread? YES WE DO! Thank you for playing. You can crawl back through your time tunnel now. When you mention this at your next Klan meeting, be sure to tell them how “gay” the future is so they dynamite the passage and save us from ALL OF THE CLACKING.

Fetal Alcohol Syndrome should be a jail time crime so as to make men and women equal.
