At the top of the ‘menu’ on this website there’s a tab linking to many of our
key posts. The first three links are to articles on rape, for the simple reason the section is presented alphabetically, the article titles all start with numbers, and the convention is to precede letters with numbers when indexing. The third link – a characteristically honest and insightful article by Janet Bloomfield (JudgyBitch) – has received thousands of clicks in the past few hours, as a result of the article in The Guardian:

6 dangerous rape myths (Hannah Wallen)

10 reasons false rape allegations are common (Jonathan Taylor)

13 reasons women lie about being raped (Janet Bloomfield)

The video of Janet’s well-received conference presentation, ‘How Feminism Infantilizes Women’, is here. Our YouTube channel, with 15 of the 20 presentations published so far, is here.

An interesting piece, published today, which has already attracted 750+ comments.

20 people, including five women and Philip Davies MP, gave presentations at the conference. Videos of 15 presentations – including Philip Davies’s – have already been published on our YouTube and Vimeo channels, the remainder will be published in the coming week or two.

Our thanks to Geoff for this, published today in The Guardian. Bindel was a particularly deserving Toxic Feminist of the Month.

Following yesterday’s news of a feminist remake of Ocean’s Eleven, we thank Mark for posing the following comment:

I got involved in last night’s explosion of #FeministAMovie puns on Twitter after some simpering media cuck said MORE Hollywood classics should be remade (ruined) this way. It was hilarious. Crybabies came out in force and the tag was quickly de-trended by TwittPolice but some big laughs were to be had. Some highlights of my own work include:

Hubby, I Took The Kids
Driving Miss Andry
Who Boiled Roger’s Rabbit?
Invasion of the Bodyshamers
Degrading Private Ryan
Childless In Seattle
Blaming John Malkovich
Raging Bullshitter

Presentation #15. All the presentations are being published on our YouTube and Vimeo channels.

Our thanks to Sean for this piece in The Guardian. From near the end:

The news comes after reports that the all-female Ghostbusters reboot will lose $70m (£54m), making further instalments unlikely.

Our thanks to Jeff for this – a piece with a photograph of a distressed young woman. A better headline would have been:

More than a quarter of students ‘have mental health problems’

From the article:

In May, statistics published by the ONS showed student suicides had risen to their highest level since numbers were first recorded in 2007.

These figures – for 2014 – showed there were 130 suicides in England and Wales among full-time students aged 18 or above. Of those, 97 deaths were for male students and 33 were females.

In typical BBC fashion, no comment is made of this gender differential. Another alternative headline would have been:

Three-quarters of students who commit suicide are male.

Yesterday a very silly report on the purported sexual harassment of women in the workplace was published. It was produced by the TUC – the General Secretary of which is Frances O’Grady, a radical feminist, what are the chances? – in collaboration with Special Snowflake and her Everyday Whining Project. Needless to say, the mainstream media reported the ridiculous ‘findings’ uncritically.

On Channel 4 News this evening Cathy Newman interviewed both Special Snowflake and an intelligent woman, Dr Catherine Hakim. It’s the penultimate piece (6:29) here.

Presentation #14 of 20. All the presentations are being published on our YouTube and Vimeo channels.

Our thanks to Francis for this.
