New government guidance for English secondary schools will address “incel” culture, pornography’s link to misogyny, and online “manosphere” myths. The updated relationships, sex, and health education (RSHE) curriculum, informed by data revealing widespread misogynistic attitudes, emphasizes positive role models for boys and challenges harmful online content. Furthermore, schools will be required to seek mental health expertise to discuss suicide prevention, while parents will retain the right to view curriculum materials. The guidance avoids age-specific restrictions on topics, allowing teachers to address issues raised by students, which is supported by the Association of School and College Leaders.

President Trump’s dismissal of the economic impact of his tariffs on consumers, particularly focusing on the reduced number of dolls girls might receive, reveals a concerning pattern. His repeated references to fewer toys for girls, alongside comments about pencils, trivialize the broader economic consequences of his policies. This framing suggests a deliberate attempt to portray the economic pain inflicted by tariffs as a feminine, frivolous concern, rather than acknowledging the widespread impact on all consumers. This rhetoric aligns with a broader administration push toward a more “masculine” economy, prioritizing manufacturing jobs even at the expense of living standards and upward mobility for future generations.

Marjorie Taylor Greene’s recent attack on Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for being unmarried at 35 is a truly bizarre spectacle. It reveals a startling level of insecurity and projection, especially considering Greene’s own marital history. The irony is thick enough to spread on toast. Greene, herself not currently married, seems to believe that a woman’s worth is somehow intrinsically linked to her marital status.
This isn’t just some fleeting political jab; it’s a glimpse into a worldview that’s deeply rooted in outdated societal expectations. It suggests that Greene feels a profound need to measure herself against another woman, using marriage as the yardstick.… Continue reading

Kyle Clifford was found guilty of raping and murdering his ex-girlfriend, Louise Hunt, and murdering her mother and sister. The murders followed Clifford’s viewing of numerous videos by the misogynistic influencer Andrew Tate, though evidence of this was deemed inadmissible in court. Prosecutors argued that Clifford’s consumption of violent misogynistic content directly influenced his actions, a claim partially supported by Louise’s decision to end the relationship due to Clifford’s disturbing views and behavior. Clifford’s history of violence and unstable employment further contributed to the tragic events.
