Yesterday, the New York Times was sent two open letters criticizing what many have seen as biased and misleading coverage of trans issues that has given ammunition to anti-trans activists and legislators. One of the letters was from the LGBTQ+ advocacy organization GLAAD; the other was signed by 170 New York Times contributors disturbed by the paper’s slanted trans coverage.

A favorite pastime of the bitterest of men is to imagine just how gloriously easy it is to live life as a beautiful woman. One of these fellows recently sat down and penned an interesting work of fiction on the topic to post in the PurplePillDebate subreddit. So let’s give “How I imagine life as an attractive woman is like” by somanyshawties a quick read; I will be offering some notes.

Here’s a question from the AskMen subreddit from some guy who doesn’t understand why it is that no women ever seem to have any interest in sex:

The Pledge Drive is still struggling. I need your support!

My last post on the pledge drive inspired many of you to donate, some quite generously, and I’m very grateful for it. But, seven days into what was going to be a ten-day Pledge Drive, I have raised less than half of what I need to keep this blog going.

So if you care about this blog, and you haven’t donated already, please go ahead and click the button below and give what you can. The future of the blog is literally at stake, and even a small amount will make a big difference.

The rise of female bisexuals and lesbians and the fall of men, or at least Men’s Rights activists

The Pledge Drive is still struggling! So please donate what you can to keep this blog going. Thanks!

It’s always amusing to me when some guy has a Big Theory about why he can’t get laid. It’s never his fault; it’s always some Big Trend, usually having something to do with feminism.

The American Family Association attacks the “false prophets of sexual anarchy and gender confusion” after The Sims 4 game adds trans options

The Pledge Drive is in trouble! So please donate what you can by clicking the button below!

Last week Electronic Arts announced that it would be adding trans options to its popular Sims 4 game–allowing players to customize their characters with top-surgery scars, chest binders, and other shapewear. Naturally, the right-wing American Family Association reacted as if someone had set fire to Jesus.

Please donate. Only you can keep this blog alive

I need your help. Donations are coming in very slowly, and unless that turns around in a big way, there is no possibility I can raise enough money to keep writing this blog. That’s not a threat; it’s a simple statement of fact.

If you care about this blog at all, I need you to donate at least a few bucks (or a lot of bucks if you can swing it) to make sure We Hunted the Mammoth can make it until the next pledge drive.

Sam Smith puts on devil’s horns for a Grammy performance and conservatives act like Satan ate their baby

Right-wingers: Afraid of Halloween costumes

The survival of this blog depends on people like you! So please donate what you can!

Last night, non-binary singer Sam Smith doffed a hat with devil horns for a performance with trans performer Kim Petras at the Grammys. There were flames, Petras in a cage, and dancers dressed in what were effectively slutty demon Halloween costumes. On Twitter, right-wingers reacted as if Smith had literally sacrificed a baby for Satan on live TV.

Men oppressed by women not wanting to be stared at in the gym

Pledge drives keep this blog alive! Please donate what you can!

There’s apparently a new trend on TikTok in which women film and shame guys who stare at or stalk them in the gym. So naturally, the exquisitely sensitive souls of the Men’s Rights subreddit are convinced this is going to happen to them if they happen to so much as glance at a woman at the gym. In a recent thread on the subreddit, a number of these quietly oppressed men shared their thoughts and fears.
