Adam Schwarze, the GOP candidate for the US Senate in Minnesota, wants you to know that the birth control pill causes women to be attracted to “effeminate girly boys” instead of “alpha cavemen” like they should be. It doesn’t, but he wants you to know that anyway.

CW: Suicide, violence against women
Gary Mosher wants everyone to know he had nothing to do with Saturday’s bombing of a fertility clinic in Palm Springs by a man who celebrated Mosher’s philosophy of “Efilism” in a brief manifesto he posted online.

The New York Times seems to think that it’s discovered the female equivalent of the manosphere–the womanosphere, if you will–and it’s been sitting under our noses the whole time. In a recent NYT article, Jessica Testa chronicles Dear Media, a podcast-based media empire behind 100 shows aimed at women.

One backwards-baseball-cap-wearing Chicago dudebro’s campaign to enact legal revenge on women who called him “clingy” and a “psycho” online has ended in ignominious defeat: yesterday, a Federal judge dismissed his second amended legal complaint against these women and dozens of other defendants with prejudice.

The latest supposed outrage causing convulsions amongst the MAGA set is a 12-foot tall bronze statue of an ordinary, if overweight, black woman that’s been put on display in Times Square for a month.

There’s almost nothing that Bari Weiss’ Free Press can’t blame on “wokeness.” A white woman who called a 5-year old black boy the n-word has been flooded with well over $700,000 in donations from white nationalists and other monsters? Blame the “woke left.” Right-wing conspiracy queen Candace Owen is cheering on still-convicted-rapist Harvey Weinstein? Blame the “vigilante[s]” of #MeToo.

Andrew Tate discourse has descended upon Bluesky, where I spend most of my social media time these days, in the wake of a Wall Street Journal article by a high school student named Eli Thompson discussing the appeal of the repugnant manosphere grifter to many of his classmates during what the WSJ editors call a “confusing time for young men.” Many of the Bluesky criticisms are spot on about Tate and the discourse surrounding him. Or at least kind of funny.

“Dad bods” are stirring up trouble again. Last week, Evo Psych researcher William Costello posted an informal poll on X asking men and women (separately) which version of Olly Murs they thought looked the most attractive–a “normal” version of the English singer, looking basically fit but with a slight hint of a belly, or a muscled-up version of him after 12 weeks of intense workouts at the gym. The poll went viral, garnering some 725,000 views. And not surprisingly, if you’ve ever waded into the dad bod discourse before, the men mostly thought that muscley Murs looked better; women even more overwhelmingly preferred the “before” version.

So The Federalist, that bastion of reaction and bad takes, has a particularly inane post up now dedicated to the proposition that “Art Shouldn’t Get A Free Nudity Pass Just Because It’s Art,” as the title puts it. Why? Apparently naughtiness has no place in art.

Liz Bruenig is an odd duck. Though ostensibly a leftist, the Atlantic columnist is famous for pushing reactionary views disguised as progressive common sense. She has a remarkable ability to make the worst ideas sound innocuous, writing so blandly and “civilly” that readers may not even be aware of what she is doing. She is famously against abortion. In the past, as Jude Doyle notes in an excellent takedown of all things Liz Bruenig, she has suggested that “gay people might still be acceptable in the eyes of God if they stayed celibate” and “that crisis pregnancy centers — fake abortion clinics that promise “help” with unwanted pregnancy, then terrorize patients into promising they won’t get an abortion — could end poverty.”
