Fed Up Dad
“ … If you are ready to expose the lie of gender ideology and battle the grooming, sexualization, and mutilation of minors, we need to be in the trenches together. Trust me we are at war with schools, doctors, hospitals and countless woke corporations trying to literary not just silence, but brainwash, drug, and systematically erase your daughters, my daughters, and females everywhere. Why females? Because they have the most to lose.

By developing a contaminated, stigmatized identity, the child victim takes the evil of the abuser into herself and thereby preserves her primary attachments to her parents. Because the inner sense of badness preserves a relationship, it is not readily given up even after the abuse has stopped; rather, it becomes a stable part of the child's personality structure.

Significant strides have been made by women throughout the world to challenge the deeply embedded misogyny that has plagued the lives of women and girls for millennia. Advancements (which are far from universal) such as the right to vote, to own property, to obtain a divorce, to control our own reproduction, and many other human rights have been achieved by women with great sacrifice and struggle. Nevertheless, the threat of censure, internalized as a template of fear and self-loathing, continues to enforce the physical and psychological silencing of women and girls, even in privileged cultural contexts.
