Ugh my feelings about Caitlin Moran have taken a pretty major U-turn in the last few days. Rape jokes, derailing and sarcastic responses to people being distressed by said rape jokes, and now joking about ‘women who don’t menstruate’. PLEASE. You are a major public figure. This is horrendous.

The whole debacle is thoroughly depressing.

I am so fucking relieved people are finally wising up to Caitlin Moran. The fact that so many young women laud ‘How to be a Woman’ as the feminist gospel despite her transphobia, constant slut-shaming and horrific criticism of the sex-industry absolutely terrifies me. She’s from the Germaine Greer school of archaic, cissexist nonsense that reveals how the current feminist discourse erases entire communities of women.
