Feminist Caitlin Moran Says Girls Will Be Triggered By Male Authors [VIDEO]

Unless you are living off the grid or have ignored any and all social media these last few weeks, you’d know that today is the idiotic #ADayWithoutAWoman march protest thingy. All in an effort to show feminism superiority or something. Needless to say, I’m not marching nor am I wearing red. Instead I’m working, planning snacks, and taking a few minutes to blog about another feminist absurdity.

Supposedly Caitlin Moran is a feminist “icon” because of her book “How To Be A Woman.” Have I heard of it or her? No. But then again, I don’t wander in the circles of feminism that also thinks wearing idiotic pussy hats or vagina costumes during a protest march is cool. No, its not cool. It’s stupid. Equally stupid is this bit by Caitlin herself that will likely send your head to your desk multiple times.

Here is Caitlin’s latest Moranifesto after reading something Gloria Steinem wrote:

Oh man, she’s right – so right I yelped when I read it. Because if I had one piece of advice for young girls, and women, it would be this: girls, don’t read any books by men. Don’t read them. Stay away from them. Or, at least, don’t read them until you’re older, and fully-formed, and battle-ready, and are able to counter someone being rude to you, in conversation, not with silent embarrassment, or internalised, mute fury, but a calm, “Fuck you very much, and goodbye.”

Because if there’s one thing that has made me, perhaps, happier in myself, and more confident about writing the truth, and less apt to run myself down for my appearance, weight, loudness and unusualness than many, many other women, it’s that I never read books by men when I was younger.
