  • Sugar and Spice? Tucker Carlson Says Female Leaders More Bloodthirsty Than Men

    By Selwyn Duke “Sugar and spice and everything nice; That’s what little girls are made of,” goes the old Romantic Period poem. Grown women are characterized differently, the work holds, and female leaders? Poem author Robert Southey didn’t say. But pundit Tucker Carlson just did. In fact, he stated while addressing the notion that “women…

  • A Feminazi South of the Border?

    By Selwyn Duke Sweden long ago became the world’s first officially “feminist” government. Will it now be followed by what some might think is, outside the Islamic world, the unlikeliest of places: Mexico? This may be the case if its president-elect, ex-academic Claudia Sheinbaum, has her way. Focus on Feminism In fact, while Sheinbaum —…

  • Feminist Nobel Laureate Economist Says Men Earn More Due to “Greedy Work”

    By Selwyn Duke Asian-descent Americans have long enjoyed notably higher incomes than their white countrymen do. It’s also true that men earn more money than women do. Now, question: Are both, neither, or just one of these wage gaps seen as a “problem” to be “remedied”? If you answered “just one” — and know which…

  • Joe Biden’s Man Problem

    By Selwyn Duke “C’mon, man!” would often be an exclamation used in place of argument for Joe Biden. But now he may want to say “C’mon, men!” — even though it likely won’t help. With what? Biden is underwater with male voters, a phenomenon that has only worsened since his cognitive decline was on full…

  • “Toxic Masculinity” Is a Toxic Fiction; “Stop Blaming Men,” Says Author

    By Selwyn Duke Overlapping with the “Enlightenment” and a reaction to it, the lesser-known “Romantic Period” (1790-1850, supposedly) stressed not reason but emotionalism and involved the exaltation of women. Over time this spirit metastasized into an attendant demonization of men; thus do we hear today about “toxic masculinity.” But this is essentially a toxic lie,…

  • Combating Reality: Is Putting Women in Battle a Good Idea?

    By Selwyn Duke “That's a hell of a price to pay for being stylish." So said Clint Eastwood in the 1976 film The Enforcer, lamenting the dangers of lowering police standards in feminism’s name. But the reality is that society has been paying that price for a long time. And now the cost may go…

  • Liberals Tell Men to Keep Their Legs Together

    By Selwyn Duke New York City is becoming (in)famous for no’s. No smoking, no bake sales, no salt, no French fries, no large sodas, no butter in schools, no non-girly toy guns. And now we can add a new no-no to the list: No “man-spreading.” This refers to the habit some men have of sitting…

  • Obama: Just Say No to Stay-at-home Moms

    By Selwyn Duke “And that’s not a choice we want Americans to make.” So said pro-choice president Barack Obama, speaking Friday on women and the economy at Rhode Island College in Providence. And some would say his remark was anything but providential, as the choice he referenced was that of mothers staying at home with…

  • Will “Boys and Girls” be Prohibited in Nebraska Schools?

    By Selwyn Duke They used to say “Stay in school, boys and girls.” But if kids do so now, they may not be “boys and girls” — that is, not if some social engineers get their way. In a shocking and disturbing example of political correctness, newly uncovered middle-school training documents in Lincoln, Nebraska, counsel…

  • Michelle Obama Criticizes America at UN for Treatment of Women

    By Selwyn Duke In a recent address to a United Nations education event, First Lady Michelle Obama decided to shine the light on a certain nation’s treatment of women. No, it wasn’t Saudi Arabia where females aren’t allowed to drive, or the Congo where rape is brutal and systematic. It was the United States. Here’s…
