Even when I was young, and there was no such thing as 3rd Wave feminism, COSMOPOLITAN magazine (Mommy, what's a magazine?) gave me the heeby-jeebys.

Looking back, it would seem to me that COSMO was Lib Fem before Lib Fem existed, and perhaps was the first sneaky countering of 2nd Wave feminism. By pretending to be feminists while advocating for promiscuity, high heels, etc., COSMO was sabotaging actual feminism.

And COSMO is still at it, but instead of telling women that they can be a CEO in the boardroom and a hooker in the sheets, it's now telling women it's OK to fantasize about cannibalism.

Yeah, because that's what women do in between diapering, attending Zoom meetings, and watching grandma - we fantasize about eating people.

This is all deliberate. The question is when are people going to wake up?

At first Teen Vogue promoting "you should enjoy rape porn and bdsm" and "how to enjoy anal sex as a teen" for 11-15 years old girls, and now Cosmopolitain says that Chikatilo and Armin Meiwes were just lovely men with innocent kink of cannibalism!

Both writers are "heavily practicing BDSM" - why they are writing for kids and women at all?

How do such articles are even going through redactorship?
