Dear GFPs, it’s the last day of Feminist Christmas! I trust everyone had a great month and that sexism has now been solved…ah well, maybe next year.

My dear GFPs,It's March! Or at least it will be by the time this goes out to you. Which means not only is spring right around the corner, or maybe even here already, it’s also FEMINIST CHRISTMAS — which let’s face it, this year feels a little like rearranging deck chairs on the titanic…but let’s not succumb to despair! Instead gorge yourself on the nearly 6000 word essay I seem to have written on witches, babies and DEI…you know you want to. But first! A few notices.

GFPs, a quick note before we get going that the following post includes discussion of domestic violence, violent homicide, and suicide, so please proceed with caution. Last month, England and Wales took the first step towards legalising assisted dying (a separate bill is under consideration in Scotland, while Northern Ireland is described as “left behind” on the issue). After a five hour debate in Parliament, MPs voted by 330 to 275 in favour of the The Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill.

Good morning GFPs! Well, I said I was going to be a bit more erratic with my publishing schedule than usual during this stage of book writing and so it has transpired. I was deep into a section on the menopause and I had about a million disparate threads I was holding in my head, trying to pull them together and work them into a cohesive thesis and I was worried if I stepped away from it I would lose all the ends and get into a hopeless tangle, just to continue that tortured metaphor.

Well, GFPs, so much for my “I probably won’t be writing as much in the coming months” post. But then again, stories keep coming up that upset me. Two weeks ago it was the horrifying court case in France about the husband who admitted drugging his wife and inviting scores of men over to rape her while he filmed it. This week it was the first confirmed reports of deaths of women who were, as a result of the 2022 Dobbs decision, unable to receive abortion care in America.

GFPs, today I want to talk about something weird that has been going on in my WhatsApp groups these past weeks. There is one story that every woman I know is talking about - and which not a single man I know is talking about. It’s the kind of story that crops up every now and then. The kind of story that makes me think of that famous Germaine Greer line from The Female Eunuch: Women have very little idea of how much men hate them.
