Why I’m Glad Gwyneth Paltrow Is Being Eaten Alive for Her ‘Wellness’ Routine

On celebrity diet culture and its deadly consequences — At this point, I don’t think I would be surprised if Gwyneth Paltrow started selling placenta fritters. Or Himalayan salt butt plugs. Or something equally too absurd-to-be-true. After all, for years now, she’s been making loads of money from convincing other women they can become the epitome of health and…

The Problem With Incels No One Seems To Talk About

They’re not only angry at women who refuse to sleep with them — It’s been almost half a year since I joined an incel forum under a male pseudonym. It’s one of the most popular for young men and boys who describe themselves as ‘involuntarily celibate’ — incel for short — because they cannot get into a romantic or sexual relationship with a…

Dear Americans, Did You Know That Not Everyone on the Internet Is Also American?

This will probably come as a massive shock to some — I’m one of those crazy people who write ‘colour’ instead of ‘color.’ And ‘honour’ instead of ‘honor.’ I also have this nasty tendency to put an ‘s’ where many expect to see a ‘z’ instead. You’ve probably guessed where I’m going with this. Yup, unfortunately, I’m not American. That’s all…

Why It’s Time To Ditch the ‘Female’ and ‘Male’ Brain Nonsense

New research reveals what many suspected all along — and more — If you’re a woman, chances are that you’ve been asked to organise someone else’s birthday party at some point in your life. Or take notes during a work meeting where you’re not the lowest-level attendee. Or help clean up after a house party with plenty of other people left. Because…

Five Absurd Things Women Got the Blame for Throughout History

#1 All the wars to have ever existed — Long before there were female celebrities we could blame for demoralising the youth by unashamedly having… nipples or women could divorce their husbands, contributing to the further decay of modern society, there was Eve. And one day, Eve took a bite of an apple and the world, unfortunately, hasn’t been…

Why Women Are Sick and Tired of Having Sex With Men

And why the sex recession might be here to stay — For a while now, we’ve been in a recession. And not only the one where you have to think twice before buying your favourite brand of butter because it suddenly got twice as expensive. But also the one that might be a bit less obvious — the sex recession. Although…

How Life Simultaneously Got Better and Worse Than Ever Before

The great paradox of modern times — ‘I’m focusing too much on all the bad stuff,’ one of my friends recently told me. We were discussing my work — which he occasionally reads, like all of my friends — and he said that all things considered, he doesn’t believe we’re moving in the wrong direction at all. …

Why ‘Women Are Born Submissive’ Is Just a Steaming Pile of Bullshit

And yet many people still vehemently believe it to be true — A few days ago, I came across the above viral picture on Twitter. It was posted by one of many manosphere accounts on there, alongside the following caption: Does Rihanna look happy in this photo? When a woman is forced to be in charge, she is forced to take on…

This Is How Ridiculously Great Life Is When You’re an Attractive Woman

It’s just wonderful to be used to boost men’s egos — It’s no secret that men have this elaborate, state-of-the-art system of categorising women into two distinct categories: fuckable and unfuckable. And I’m lucky enough to belong to the former. Actually, I’m probably somewhere near the top of the fuckability pyramid. I’m still relatively young, thin, and tall, and I’ve been…

How Social Media Algorithms Sexually Objectify Women — And Why It Matters

On the double standards in online censorship and AI gender bias — I recently got permanently banned from Tik Tok. Again. This time, because the platform concluded that I couldn’t be older than 13 years old. (I’m actually old enough to have a child around that age.) And I imagine that’s because in most videos I post there, I don’t wear makeup…
