Oh my. How ever will she be able to endure being so far from the natural pleasures of the domestic, far from the guardianship of a loving husband, and far from the life-giving experience of motherhood?

“Liberal democracy is little more than a front for the war being waged against us by those who fundamentally despise not only our way of life, but life itself.”

A bit long for a hat.

Maybe he has it on a bumper-sticker, in very small print.

Had a son-in-law once that was rabidly homophobic. To the point he was intolerable in social situations. Heard through the grapevine a couple years back he left his wife for some guy at work.

I think this is her. The article itself doesn’t mention her but her name is in the caption.

This is part of her screed from “Conservative Woman”

We must be men, and we must hate men.

It’s no wonder, then, that so many, with the spectre of enslavement looming, have run for refuge in their academic degrees, their earnings potential, their Netflix series and cocktail hours and one-night stands. Today, women are angry, isolated, increasingly childless, and desperately seeking meaning in disposable professional roles. We now toil side-by-side with men, equal in our voting rights, but unequal in our needs, our unfulfilled longings, and our separate miseries. The false song of feminism (to borrow a phrase) has doubled our burden, and stolen from us the pursuit of our fundamental purpose, the fulfilment of our biological imperative to be mothers.

She’s a wackaloon. My bet is some weird “ultra orthodox” Catholic sect or evangelical.

ETA Sorry. The article was in all places the South China Post.
