They say 80-90% of men are seeking to harm women.
My own stats with every man I’ve encountered…that sounds right. For my experience closer to 90%.
The other 10% are silent and do nothing to compensate the women around them suffering from it. They try to fit in to patriarchy unnoticed. They don’t play the way the abusers play…but they still play & profit from it.
So, for me it really is all men.
How offensive it is to see the point at which a medical professional finally notices that a girl is autistic described as ‘a late onset of symptoms’.
Fork that.
We are born autistic & we remain autistic. It’s part of who we are. When or whether we are noticed depends on the extent to which we are punished for our sensitivities, how well we learn to hide them & whether our ways of coping with an overwhelming world are seen as problematic (as they often are in boys) or as just our being shy and cute (girls).
Autistic folx have been talking about this for ages. How slow the ‘experts’ are to catch up.
And they wonder why we don’t take them seriously 😹
Robyn Pennachia reports on Elon Musk's response to the following statement made on X/Twitter by user Pub:
"It breaks my heart to say but in order to save this country we are probably going to have to do things that make women sad :("
Musk replied: "True words."
As Robyn notes, the context makes clear that Trump is applauding stripping women of the right to vote — and more.

New training from a Texas regulator about when doctors can legally terminate a pregnancy comes nearly five years after the state passed its abortion ban in 2021.
Experts contend the guidance can’t capture all complications that arise in pregnancy.

“We do not need to cover our eyes and pretend not to see what this logic leads to. It is not an accident that Republicans have over and over again blocked laws against child marriage. It is not an accident that Republicans made it their mission for decades to ban abortion.
A core plank of Republican politics is that women exist to bear children for men.”

The SAVE act targets people who've changed their name *for any reason*. Ya know who's done that?
- Married women
- Trans & nonbinary folx
- Immigrants
You know which US citizens that leaves?
Mostly white men.
The SAVE act isn't trying to save anything other than patriarchy and fascism.
"We are simply women who do not fit into a narrow, outdated box of what femininity is supposed to look like."
"The same rhetoric that claims to protect women is now being used to harass mothers in hospital beds, disabled women in their homes, and strangers in public toilets."
"It has created a world where any woman can be challenged, interrogated, or humiliated simply for existing in the “wrong” body."

“… Federalist runs op-eds suggesting women should be discouraged from education, because too much education lowers their birth rates. Encouraging their indoctrination into fertility-obsessed religions is preferable.

@jaykuo As all your readers know, the SAVE act would suppress the vote of any woman who has changed her name at some point in her life.
For such a ‘traditional values’ person, I find it odd that Ms Leavitt does not use her husband’s name. I wonder why…….
The SAVE Act Would Disenfranchise Millions of Citizens

"the legislation would require the vast majority of #Americans to rely on a passport or birth certificate to prove their citizenship.... more than 140 million #American citizens do not possess a passport and as many as 69 million #women who have taken their spouse’s name do not have a birth certificate matching their legal name."

BASH: Do you agree that the state is 'an agent for the federal govt' in elections?
HUSTED: I understand the president's frustration. We can instill confidence in both the president and American people that elections are run well through the SAVE Act
BASH: The president wasn't talking about the SAVE Act, though
HUSTED: I don't know exactly what he means
