On the eve of the annual (and in decline) luvvy virtue-signaling regress-fest, there still stands Charlotte Rampling who, along with Catherine Deneuve, have timeless and towering unalloyed class, dignity, elegance and, most importantly, critical faculties — unlike the pompous half-baked cause du jour “celeb” types who are superficially deep, but deep down, are superficial! This documentary,…
“Sexy isn’t Sexist” is Paula Wright’s Twitter handle. Very chuffed to have the versatile and independent-minded Paula allow us to use one of her compelling photographs as the next C+T cover. As a classical liberal in the tradition of grandees such as Christina Hoff Sommers and Susan Haack, Paula and a new crop of formidable empirically informed and temperamentally based…
Catherine Deneuve — the epitome of sophisticated, cool eroticism, accomplishment, strong and independent womanhood. I can’t see her stooping to group zombiefication wearing a pussyhat.

The institutionalized pseudo-inquiry of “professionalized” whining, perpetual victimhood and self-aggrandizement railing against “the patriarchy”, is no more than yet another ill-founded conspiracy theory peddled by the intellectually lazy virtue-signaling prof with no skin in the game. Here is an Interview with based…
Nice analytical piece by Helen Pluckrose. Consider the incoherent fuckwittery of, for example, “queers for Palestine” and the recent unholy alliance of feminism with Sharia law (I refer of course to Linda Sarsour, co-organizer of the recent Women’s March blindly followed by white middle class pseudo-intellectuals giving new meaning to Kornbluth’s The Marching Morons). The permutations of idiocy…
