Quote of the Day

Misogyny is the law enforcement branch of patriarchy.  If you think about someone like Donald Trump claiming he's the law enforcement president, I think that's right.  It's the law of patriarchy, among other things, that he's enforcing.  It's the law that polices and punishes women who transgress or threaten dominant men.

-- Kate Manne, "What we get wrong about misogyny"
