No, please, I cannot take the cold, cruel world today. Leave me be here, alone, in the dark. It is where I belong.

Wait…

Do I smell chicken?

I don't think it's a coincidence that so many of the same people who get defensive about guilt with any attempt to have a nuanced discussion about DEI are also easily enthralled by their authoritarian strongman. They see everything through the lens of "who gets to tell whom what to do."

Okay yeah lets do it, because it is an interview with two conservative women, which I think is getting missed in some of the drive by dunks. This isn't just Ross's normal crankery, its a window into a specific conservative project aimed at getting women to buy in.

But you’re both here, I’m sorry to say, as theorists. We’re going to try to debate your theories.

Helen, you recently wrote an essay entitled “The Great Feminization” that attracted some commentary on the internet and argued, at least in my gloss, that feminism has failed us because it’s made our institutions too feminized, driving men and masculine virtues out.

And Leah, you have a new book called “The Dignity of Dependence,” where you suggest that liberal feminism has failed us by forcing women to suppress their nature and fit into workplaces and social systems made for men.

Women don't belong and are unhappy in masculine institutions, and women ruin those institutions when they feminize them.

Ladies, this trans thing is a threat to your rights. A right to not be in the workplace because you’ll be happier at home, trust.

Every one of these conservative white women follow the same playbook.

I can’t decide what the safer bet is: that this project never finishes or the roof caves in within a year.

Did men ruin every fucking thing?
