      Yet again, I have well-meaning men telling me I live in a patriarchy. Yet again, I'm very irritated that they think they have some kind of power over women. It makes me want to challenge them to a fight of some non-physical kind. See how well they do. V childish. I shall forbear.

      I *know* they mean well. I *know* their intention is not to make women feel powerless & fearful & as though they can't possibly succeed in this world. I know most women are not going to believe them & be discouraged from what they want to do. I still wish they'd stop it.

      Some women, on being told they are weak and powerless and the world is against them, will believe it and crumble. Others will believe it and fight. Many more will ignore the paranoid conspiracy theorists and just carry on regardless.

          The least appealing response to this narrative is believing it & both crumbling & fighting at the same time. That's when we get that lovely mixture of rage & victim mentality which characterises a certain type of feminism & is so embarrassing for universally liberal (ex)feminists

          I spent a handful of years in the feminist blog world and it was one of the unhealthiest environments I ever found myself in.

          As an extreme conspiracy theorist, I take great offense at being lumped together with anything having to do with the what, the third wave? of feminism and the patriarchy. All we care about is that the lizard people don’t maintain their rule on this flat earth of ours. 🤣🤣🤣
