I beg us not to lose sight of the role queerphobia played along with misogyny. Becca Good’s tone in interacting with Ross was just like her late wife’s: calm yet lightly mocking; neither scared nor deferential; and because of that deeply, deeply subversive. katemanne.substack.com/p/renee-good...

The woman who dare not to be afraid are the ultimate danger for insecure men. Great text here. bsky.app/profile/kate...

“The scenario is not so far from that deservedly famous line of Margaret Atwood’s: men fear women laughing at them. Women fear men killing them, because she dared to laugh at him.”

You find yourself wondering if he uses a different tone of voice when he calls his wife a fucking bitch.

We can’t ignore the gendered dynamics of what we just saw katemanne.substack.com/p/renee-good...

My policy is to allow laptop use not only (obviously) for students who have an accommodation but also for those who simply request it. This didn't come up this semester, but it's crucial to be thoughtful here about disability accommodations, as the post details

Everything about this is inspiring

“It’s the writing, I believe. It simply makes students smarter.”

morale will improve, quite marvelously

Best semester ever, thanks to going fully analog katemanne.substack.com/p/i-prevente...

really encouraging for those of us who favor the idea of students actually learning stuff.

I never saw this coming katemanne.substack.com/p/i-prevente...

"When men’s freedoms are threatened... we call it fascism. But when women are controlled through forced birth, criminalized for their trauma... or stripped of autonomy, it’s “bad men,” “culture,” “personal tragedy,” or crickets." [email protected] katemanne.substack.com/p/anti-abort...

Just listened to Kate Manne on Pomona’s Overthink philosophy podcast. She is right about our obsession with weight and every other damn thing she writes about! This pod, my new fave. @katemanne.bsky.social @pomonacollege.bsky.social @ellieanderphd.bsky.social overthinkpodcast.com/episodes/epi...

MEN RUIN WOMEN’S LIVES AND END THEM, in the workplace and beyond. This is the only conversation we should be having in this vicinity www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/w...

@ronanfarrow.bsky.social included this story in Catch and Kill. @katemanne.bsky.social and @borowitzreport.bsky.social discuss Katie Johnson's (a pseudonym) credible allegation that Trump raped her when she was 13. Content warning for child rape.

In 2016, I got death threats when I posted about Katie Johnson on Twitter. Johnson is the woman who says she was raped by Trump when she was only 13 years old. I watched the entirety of her video testimony and found it credible, which I say as someone who has worked with CSA survivors for decades.

“She was, is, real. And it’s time we stopped swallowing the line fed to us that her story is a hoax—a line fed to us, ultimately, by those attempting to protect Trump and get him elected.“

The quietest important story

The National Enquirer tried to catch and kill the Katie Johnson story. Then they got ahead of it in an attempt to discredit her. And many of us bought it—hook, line, and sinker katemanne.substack.com/p/they-tried...

Himpathy means protecting men like Trump even from themselves katemanne.substack.com/p/trump-in-h...

Get in, ladies, we're going to ruin Larry Summers' workplace 💅

“The real conspiracy theory around Trump and Epstein is that multiple apparently unconnected women lied, and continue to lie, about Trump’s behavior. This with nothing to gain, and much to lose, by speaking out about his misdeeds.”

"The real conspiracy theory around Trump and Epstein is that multiple apparently unconnected women lied, and continue to lie, about Trump’s behavior. This with nothing to gain, and much to lose, by speaking out about his misdeeds."

I love seeing a shred of accountability for Trump as much as anyone, but it's pretty striking that most people are prepared to believe a man who's a convicted serial rapist-sex trafficker and NOT ALL THESE WOMEN katemanne.substack.com/p/the-actual...

By the way, the idea that no one has accused Trump of abusing any specific underage girls with Epstein is simply not true!

per Kate Manne, Katie Johnson already made these accusations...and was ignored. katemanne.substack.com/p/the-actual...

She said something great

This essay is excellent.

@katemanne.bsky.social perfectly encapsulates why these people keep doing things that most of us find incomprehensible.

This conversation will break your heart and help you truly understand the bleakness of the post-Dobbs landscape katemanne.substack.com/p/being-preg...

Title should read "Another white male abuses his way into a comfortable & sheltered life." @katemanne.bsky.social calls it "himpathy." Maybe we should also call it the "Epstein Effect." #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

It's time to name the dynamic where (some) men don’t just dominate conversations. They desert them when it suits them, going eerily silent as dating and romantic partners and as parents katemanne.substack.com/p/men-not-ta...
