United States vice-president JD Vance, who believes liberal women are 'childless cat ladies'. Picture: AP. My current favourite quote from the Edna oeuvre is from her wonderful creation Baba, in Girls in Their Married Bliss : "The vote I thought means nothing to women.
We should be armed. Are you joking? But plus years after the societal revolution that was second-wave feminism, take a look around: the damn patriarchy has never been more powerful. Things are no better in the wider world. We have a genocidal maniac in Tel Aviv hellbent on wiping out an entire population, particularly the women, the children, even the babies.

Meanwhile, what John Cleese termed "that appalling caricature of an arsehole" Donald Trump , screams: "Everybody wants a transgender op! Particularly for us women. We were so sure we were changing the world but left the banks, the guns and the porn industry in male hands. What were we thinking? And what about violent porn?
Yes, porn. Second-wave feminists said porn was the scene of a crime. They were so right. Take the past two weeks. Odious weirdo Andrew Tate and his human shield brother re-appeared in headlines after they were sprung from a Romanian jail and headed back to the US. Banged up on charges of sex trafficking, rape, fraud, tax avoidance, sex with a minor, forming a company with criminal intent, money laundering, tampering with witnesses, etc, the brothers were put on a private jet and flown to Florida.
Trump "knew nothing about it". Seized assets, swanky cars and properties all returned, the brothers, grinning like chipmunks, promised to return to Romania for their end of March hearing. Next it was the Epstein files. The icing on the incel cake is going to be the pardoning of Ghislaine Maxwell. Yes, darling Ghislaine who groomed, then handed vulnerable underage girls to a monster, for years, is apparently up for a presidential pardon.
