🚨The gap in life expectancy between US men & women (5.9 yrs) is largest since 1997. Male deaths from Covid, heart disease &suicide are driving the widening gap. We have 8 federal offices on women’s health. 0 for men. So what does Biden administration do?
Dear kids: I’m a Baby Boomer. We are getting old. But at least we had sex, drugs and rock & roll. Seems like millennials have moral panics, workshops, and grievance circles. Time to rebel! xxMom

Please don’t apologize. Winston Churchill, like all of us, had serious human failings. But unlike most of us—he possessed genuine greatness. And that greatness may have saved freedom & democracy. Ask the Twitter scolds to name a hero or heroine who didn’t have serious flaws.
The violence tonight is not about George Floyd.Growing numbers of young Americans have been taught to think of US as an evil empire—a white-supremacist, patriarchal hellscape.The part about the US being the best hope for humankind—a deeply flawed but noble democracy—not taught.
For every white male dollar:
- Asian American women earn 87 cents
- White women earn 79 cents
- Black women earn 63 cents
- Native American women earn 58 cents
- Latina women earn 54 cents
Pay equity among men and women workers should be established by LAW.
The DC monument the mob intends to destroy was paid for by donations from emancipated African-Americans in 1876. Frederick Douglass spoke at the unveiling. In 1974, it was rotated to face a memorial honoring celebrated black educator Mary McLeod Bethune.

Gaza is occupied by Hamas, not Israel. Hamas is funded by Iran and works against the interest of Palestinians. It terrorizes the Gaza population and shoots rockets into civilian areas of Israel. You seem to be an apologist for Hamas. Hope I’m wrong.

The answer to male privilege is not female privilege. The answer is basic fairness for all.
She was 15. In a 3-second Snapchat video, imitating a rapper, she said, “I can drive, ‘n-word.’” This June, 4 years later, someone posted it. Twitter mob demanded vengeance. U of Tennessee

A psychopathic kid gets a video of a girl using a racial slur when she's 15, holds on to it until she has chosen a college to get her admissions revoked. The NYT celebrates this "reckoning." How many previous tyrannical regimes have gone after the children?
No mention of Sarah Jeong’s demented tweets on her Wikipedia page. Why? A little group of activist editors won’t allow it. Amazing. See them in action here:
Star of the (small) Netflix walkout is a genial guy with “We like Dave” sign. Angry protestors tear the sign from the guy’s hand. He’s left with only a stick. Cries from crowd “He has a weapon!” Lol. Watch the whole thing.

US is not a patriarchy. Vast majority of men are not violent. Violent crime is at record low. Why do some young men become violent? Sociopathic personality disorder, drugs, gangs, fatherlessness. Gender studies jargon won’t help.
Patriarchy is a social system that defines men as being inherently violent, dominant and controlling while rewarding them with power for being that way.
Why are we continually surprised when a man takes up arms and commits mass murder? via

The only way to stop the howling McCarthyist mob is for EVERYONE with a blue check to post an offensive joke on Twitter. OK: Here is mine. Why couldn’t Helen Keller drive? Because she was a woman. Your turn.

My God. Last night DC protesters intimidated people in a restaurant. Ordered them to raise their fists in protest. Anyone who disobeyed was viciously denounced for supporting “white supremacy.” Distressing video of bullying posing as activism.👇🏻
Diversity Dean at Lewis & Clark was present.She approached podium in middle of my talk & asked me to wrap up my speech & take questions. I was never able to develop my argument.Shouldn’t the dean have insisted protesters allow me to finish, rather than cut speech short?

ALERTA! Christina Sommers, who is basically an MRA and rape apologist/denialist has 3 speaking engagements planned for this week in Portland. One will be hosted by Turning Points USA and the PSU College Republicans, and PSU's Boghossian is also on the panel.
Northwestern U. law school had a town hall meeting online recently. Everybody began w/ a ritual denunciation of themselves as racist. Reader: "Prof. Speta is not a racist. He is a wonderful man universally loved by students. It makes me sad that he is forced to say otherwise."
The Factual Feminist has been denounced by the Southern Poverty Law Center as enabler of male supremacy. Oy vey. Last year leader of MRA group denounced me for being a female supremacist
Both wrong. I’m a facts & logic supremacist.
In America, women working full time can expect to be paid 80 cents for every dollar paid to a man, creating an average annual gap of $10,169.

This New York Times article documents a large reading gap favoring girls and a small math gap that sometimes favors boys. Guess which gap is presented as a big problem?
Sorry to interrupt, but the US is not white supremacist; nor is it a patriarchy. It’s a messy, pluralistic, representative democracy. Far from perfect, but still one of the best countries on earth for men and women of all races & ethnicities. You are over-reacting.
No Marisa, You are the one who needs to LISTEN. Blaming an entire group for the crimes of a few is what we call bigotry. It’s also useless. Think before you tweet.
Police stand guard as Charlie Hebdo cartoons of Muhammad were projected onto a town hall in Montpellier, France as a tribute to the history teacher who was beheaded by a Muslim refugee. In 2015, 12 people at Charlie Hebdo magazine were killed by jihadists.
Oh look. An assistant professor at UCLA calling the footage of slaughtered Israelis “propaganda.” Never mind that it was filmed by HAMAS killers themselves. I shudder to think what she teaches in her classes.
When we say these are not harmless opinions or individuals or careers to support, we aren’t exaggerating. Gal Gadot is a former IDF soldier using her access in Hollywood to push propaganda for an ongoing genocide.
I was a professor for more than 20 years. I cannot imagine treating a student this way. So much wrong here. Her stridency. The way she treats a contentious thesis about the origins of policing as absolute truth. Her unwillingness to listen.

Thank you for this gracious response. My two cents fwiw. You say you were given pause when many on your team felt their identity was under attack. But Coleman’s talk was cogent & humane. So I suspect a lack of balance on your team. You may need more independent thinkers who…
We have to be more honest about what 9/11 was and what it wasn't. It was an attack on the heteropatriarchal capitalistic systems that America relies upon to wrangle other countries into passivity. It was an attack on the systems many white Americans fight to protect.
Bogus study alert.Thomson-Reuters Foundation ranks USA as 3rd worst country in WORLD for sexual violence, worse than Congo & Pakistan. Methodology? It asked assorted gender experts for their “perceptions.” Sad to see such shoddiness

I mean, sure, looting is counterproductive. But it’s hard to be mad about protests not prioritizing the private property of a system of oppression founded on treating people’s ancestors as private property.
I was a teenager when the Manson Family butchered Sharon Tate & her friends. Everyone was horrified by the obscene brutality of the crime. No one took the side of the maniacal killers or blamed the victims. Hamas just carried out hundreds of Manson-like slaughters. And many…

I am on a 5 hr. flight to Phoenix and I began with good intentions. Brought along a lot of work—and an apple. So far, 3 glasses of wine, endless snacks. Immediately got on Gogoinflight Wifi, went to Twitter, and looked for trouble. Please God, help me.
You may think online you are anonymous, you can create fake profiles and
no-one can trace you. That’s wrong! The messages you type and send can be traced back to you.
The same laws apply to online messages, images and videos. What you post now can affect you later in life.
Hugh: Calm down. The fact that most violent crime is committed by men does not mean all men are violent. Vast majority are not. And neither sex has a monopoly on vice or virtue. We are equally human. Why pretend otherwise?And why promote gender war rhetoric? What happened to you?
Men are the problem. Testosterone is the problem. With few exceptions, women don't murder, war, and rape the world.
99% of violent crimes are men between the ages of puberty and bad knees.
Women should be in charge of everything.
