At some point when everyone was busy believing that feminism had something to do with achieving equality, Clementine Ford arrived on a broomstick.
She confidently announced she was here to fix gender inequality and people blindly believed her.
While everyone was so busy virtue signalling that all things fem are fabulous, people stopped noticing our societal moral compass had turned into devil’s horns.
This woman doesn’t want equality. She is on an egotistical power trip of revenge and fools are dancing to her twisted tune. She is the pied piper of hatred wearing a pink pussy hat.
In a copy of her book, ‘Fight Like A Girl’, she wrote a note to a fan. It asked “Have you killed any men today? And if not, why not?”
Read that again.
Now, please explain why this is acceptable when Eddie McGuire was utterly vilified for commenting he’d pay extra if Caroline Wilson stayed under water at the Big Freeze?
To be clear, he didn’t use the word “drown”.
Yet, in black and white, writing about “killing” men is perfectly acceptable?
This is not equality.
People are buying this narrative while pretending to care about the soaring male suicide rate?
When I wrote in an earlier column about the male suicide crisis and the desperate need to take this seriously, regardless of gender, I was slammed as a “misogynist” while hate mail and insults poured in.
Apparently, believing women are not more equal than men quietly left the party when the flaming broomstick arrived.
What is wrong with our politicians?
Why can’t they hear this bias?
Why can’t they see we have taken a horribly wrong turn?
When will they wake up?
Ford gets hate mail because she’s hateful; she winds people up and dances with glee when they bite. She’s had people fired from their jobs and delights in public shaming rather than striving for peace.
This is the face of feminism in Australia?
This is who politicians smile with in order to demonstrate they’re doing the right thing by women?
Who do you think you are fooling?
We stand absolutely zero chance of ending domestic violence or achieving harmony between the sexes if this broomstick is leading the way.
And we are taking Mark Lathams word as true ? We want to drive Clementine Ford into the wilderness based on ...? An alleged flippant comment written to a fan.
This is overblown crap and the heading is just over the top.

The real "problem" with Clementine Ford ? She stands up for herself and won't accept the unbelievable rubbish that is heaped on women in general in the media.
No, her real problem is that she's an extremist who gets into the gutter far too often.
And exactly how many people are you trying to antagonise Rumpy old boy? Perhaps every women whose been trolled with mindless hate comments ? Perhaps every one of the few who have stood up and said this is unacceptable ? Perhaps their friends, family and partners who recognise this reality.
This thread title is antagonistic rubbish. If there is an intelligent conversation to be had on the topic it starts with the unchecked online sexist abuse of women in particular on social media.
Not happy..
Well perhaps one way to get some people on this thread to understand the issue of women being abused on line is to have a few score people sending them nasty, vicious rape and murder tweets.
Or maybe their wives or daughters?
Rumpy you have misunderstood what I have said.WTF ?
Mate, that is low.
The standard of discussion on this important topic has to be lifted, not dragged into the gutter by comments like that.
Very disappointing you would say such a thing.
