The word “feminist” has now come to mean “left wing feminist”, which is a shame. But I agree with the article otherwise.

Rape fantasy is one extreme, but in other ways conservative women are seen as fair game for the kind of vile misogyny that would not be tolerated if they were on the left.

Sarah Palin, and, in her time, the UK’s Margaret Thatcher, are cases in point. Michelle Malkin said that she gets racist abuse too – her maiden name, Maglagang was mocked. If she were a liberal such abuse would be denounced from the pulpits, as racism is an even worse sin than sexism.
