Our thanks to James for this. Another day, another woman stabbing a male politician in the back, and publishing his personal letter to her. Ms Fuller claims “the affair helped propel her into depression, self-harm and suicide attempts”. Why, then, didn’t she end it? Because like so many women she wanted the benefits of a relationship with an important and influential man, without the downsides. She is displaying zero moral agency, in common with so many of the women in the current political storm in a teacup. An extract:
Although the relationship was consensual, Ms Fuller believes Farage should have taken more responsibility for his actions.
Justice for Men & Boys 
‘Although the relationship was consensual, Ms Fuller believes Farage should have taken more responsibility for his actions.‘
What does that mean? She ‘believes’? He should have taken ‘more responsibility’ for his actions? It’s nonsense of the sort they learn from trashy magazines and soap operas; phrases designed to encourage them in their predilection for mawkish self-indulgence and martyrdom, to nourish their incontinent and insatiable appetites for self-absorbed introspection and suffering by according guilt to a man whose only offence seems to have been that she found his wealth, power, fame and success irresistibly attractive.
And then they whine self-pityingly ‘where have all the good men gone?’

Ah..
HE should take responsibility for HIS actions?
Was it not consentual as she said?
In which case which case why cannot SHE take responsibility for HER actions too – surely she only wants Equality?
Apparently not after all.
What a puzzle.
How can that be – It’s almost as if she wants Privilege & Advantage isn’t it?
But that would have to mean she’s too Stupid to realise how completely and shockingly she’s given herself away.
And it’s my understanding there is now a Whole Women’s Party supposedly dedicated to that same sort of ‘Equality’.
In which case They must think We’re stupid too.
That’s one awful lot of stupidity going down.

This story managed to fill pages pages 18,19 and 20 in the Mail on Sunday !
Note the classic word in the very first sentence in the article,
where the woman is described as ‘vulnerable.’
Yet another female vulnerable victim narrative.
I’d expect a fragile,vulnerable victim to be shy and retiring,not parading in a national
newspaper pouring out embarrassing,irrelevant information. How undignified, how shameless.
All men out there, take your time and choose your women very carefully, so many of them out there seem to be losing the plot !

The trouble is that this woman and all her female readers will now go on to be told how wonderful and strong she is, how mean the bad man was for hurtz her feelz (strangely no one ever asks about how a man feels when a woman publicly humiliates him – though if the roles were reversed he’d be in a world of trouble) etc etc ad nauseam. Sad, as someone famous on Twitter would say.

All of this made me convinced that hiring a female aide, in whatever profession, will only decrease the chances of success in whatever type of business. Everyone can see that female colleagues simply can not be trusted. Exposing intimate issues is shameless, undignified and certainly untrustworthy. Furthermore, if women are to be considered vulnerable, that can only mean they can’t fend for themselves and can hardly be considered equal. And these same women are supposed to be equal soldiers… something does not add up here.

I am always positively amazed how quickly strong and independent women become shy, quivering putty in the hands of their evil male partner in these kinds of stories. One is reminded irresistibly of how (with perhaps better justification) Joss Whedon’s ex wife lambasted him over his many affairs, before declaring it had given her PSTD. Still, I hold to my point: damseling like this is the emotional manipulation of a woman scorned, and society should stop pandering to it via ‘open letters’, lists of ‘right on’ Tumblr tirades or newspaper interviews. The same should be true for men, though even in today’s debased times fewer of them choose to publicly vomit their emotional problems into the public sphere for others to step gingerly around.
