badass feminists of our time

In this article we discuss which feminists are the most badass. I am, I might point out, a male of the species.

Germaine Greer

I once saw her lecture at a Sociology conference in Birmingham: all the other lectures were on "Media and its relationship to Culture", or something like that: hers was on penetrative sex: upon finding this out at least one Catholic Girls School cancelled its tickets. All the other lectures were read dully, quoting a rich wealth of research, hers was blatantly made up on the spot and featured a command for all the men in the audience to learn to eat pussy really well, in order to make ourselves popular. If you're a Feminist and Germaine Greer hasn't slagged you, and everything you've ever said, then you clearly are very, very unimportant.

Lorena Bobbit

A heroine of mine. Clearly there has to come a point when pacifism is no longer a viable option, and the Bobbit marriage reached that point, whereapon Lorena, quite rightly, took the knife to his todger. Her second name is now a verb: as in "to bobbit" meaning to cut off someone's dick. Her prick of an ex-husband is now a porn star: which proves what an idiot he is. Don't know whether she actually calls herself a Feminist, but this is surely irrelevant.

Valerie Solaris

Militant Feminist who wrote the Society to Cut Up Men (SCUM) manifesto, shot Andy Warhol three times in the chest, then took up residence in a mental home. Clearly a little unfocused.

Off like John Bobbit's dick,
