“These days, however, I am much calmer - since I realised that it’s technically impossible for a woman to argue against feminism. Without feminism, you wouldn’t be allowed to have a debate on a woman’s place in society. You’d be too busy giving birth on the kitchen floor - biting down on a wooden spoon, so as not to disturb the men’s card game - before going back to quick-liming the dunny. This is why those female columnists in the Daily Mail - giving daily wail against feminism - amuse me. They pay you £1,600 for that, dear, I think. And I bet it’s going into your bank account, and not your husband’s. The more women argue, loudly, against feminism, the more they prove it exists and that they enjoy its hard-won privileges.”
