WARNING: Contains profanity & triggering language.
Got this message on my public Facebook page last night.
I get these kind of messages often. It is not possible to be a woman who speaks up about anything and NOT receive messages like this. Misogynists have threatened to rape me, come to my home and kill my family, and silence me in myriad violent ways — and more often than not, when there is this kind of hateful message the word they call me is: Cunt.
Cunt is a hard word. It makes us cringe right? It feels scary. Words feel scary when they are MEANT to feel scary. Misogynists call women cunts when they are trying to instill fear, trying to put us back in our place, trying to remind us that what our identity boils down to is: our cunt. And our cunt is really all we’re permitted to use, not our brain or heart or voice or passion or anger or even body, really. And so when a man calls me a cunt, I know what he is saying: Know your worth — you are nothing. You are here for no other reason than for me to use. So lie down and shut up. There is violence implied and that’s not an accident. There is a snarled lip and maybe a knife, even.
I went to sleep after reading that message. I woke up to this screenshot from Sister:
Here is the thing that misogynists need to keep relearning:
If you call a woman a cunt, you are calling your sister and your mother and your infant daughter a cunt also. You are actively creating a world in which it is okay to call those women cunts. You are releasing poison into the air that the women in your life WILL BREATHE BACK IN. You are poisoning your own people. You cannot hate a woman for speaking her mind without hating all of us. Women are a package deal.
There are not two of you, sir. There is not you, the father – and you, the internet misogynist. The internet you IS YOU. If you are a misogynist on the internet, you are also a misogynist in your daughter’s nursery. While you are holding her. While you are whispering to her your dreams for her: That she uses her heart and her mind and her passion to live a big life of purpose.
That’s what you want for her right? That’s what all women want. To be able to be fully human without the threat of violence. 
Quit hating your daughter, sir. She’s a Warrior.
When we know better, we do better. You know better now. Step up. For her.
All Best,
US

The average woman nowadays just sleep around with different men all the time which makes them real pigs to begin with, since they will never ever be able to settle down with only one guy unfortunately. Been there.
Most liberals and conservatives are all under mkultra. So anything you say or believe is completely suspect. Most of you watch that stupid idiot box too much. But, what can you expect from people who can make it on their own? Most of you if society collapsed, you would die because you depend on the government. Criminals run our government. And they are in both main stream parties, but most of you are just too damn stupid to realize you’ve been played. Most of us with street smarts know the game. But I’ve notice most Democrats and Republicans are so damn stupid it’s no longer funny. How about you all grow up and lose the me me me? Because it’s not all about you! And if you feel it is all about you, then you are just a selfish prick.
C Women are everywhere these days, and complete Psycho’s altogether.
Amen, Glennon. This applies strongly with sexual pornography and media desensitization. Our bodies are not a commodity… men or women. Warrior on… J~
Yeah, women like you are losers.
The fiercest Warrior I knew ended her life last week. She was exhausted. She had been raped repeatedly as a child after being abandoned (via suicide) by her mother as a toddler.She was the fiercest warrior I knew because she practiced courage daily. She used her courage to help others. She always reminded me of my wholeness when I couldn’t see it. My wholeness became fragmented when I was raped by a friend in college. I’ve just finished Untamed and Love Warrior in quick succession. They opened a portal to me that can not be closed. I left myself a long time ago, and I’ve returned. I’ll never betray or leave myself again, and it’s uncomfortable, but theres no going back.
If you have to warn people about profanity and being triggered….
You’re a twat.
‘If you call a woman a cunt, you are calling your sister and your mother and your infant daughter a cunt also. You are actively creating a world in which it is okay to call those women cunts.’
False equivalence. The woman (usually with blue hair) may have demonstrated behaviour to lead to the nasty word being used. Female relatives usually haven’t.
That is all.
if anyone has an issue with this, just admit you hate women and go! men don’t even try to hide their misogyny and sheer hatred for us anymore, just look at elliot rodger.
Most women back in the old days were the best. Today they really suck.
Excellent blog right here! I really enjoyed your article! thank you very much!
Really? I thought it was rather cunty.
Most women these days unfortunately are parasites.
And the men act like man children so what’s your misogynistic point?
And if most women did have a brain today, they would be very dangerous.
Very true.
Actually, most women are intelligent, vivacious goddesses.
It’s most men these days that are misogynistic, lying pieces of shit. I won’t even bother cautioning you to think before you type shit like this, because you don’t have a heart any more than you have a brain.
Complain all you want, but the past is done. Women have the power now, and we’ll never let you take it away from us.
Said the low life loser herself.
Say hello to each of the cats from me.
go jerk your tiny dick to anime girls more
I’m pretty sure that you are a gross fat disgusting whore, Athena. By the way, how fucking dare you use the name of a Goddess when you are a gross pig. Fuck you fatty. lol
Is the small peen little boy mad? Just admit you’re obsessed with her and go! I pity the women in your family knowing a scumbag like you exists. Really worked up over a USERNAME, men really are pathetic
