For middle class women to feel like victims while still having more societal power than the vast majority of the population?

Still not a word of understanding or forgiveness for Davidson which would stop some of the abuse he's been getting.

Attack of the badger-men: can women find a place in the violent and wine-soaked carnivals of southern France? At the start of Lent, men dressed as rampaging creatures pursue women through medieval villages. The families who maintain these traditions are sceptical of change, but increasingly female revellers w...

I had a comment removed because I didn't think this was funny. Apparently, you must believe it's hilarious.

The dust has not yet settled on the Baftas N-word row. This is why | Peter Bradshaw When John Davidson involuntarily shouted racial abuse at Delroy Lindo and Michael B Jordan it set off two sets of alarm bells that should have been heeded much quicker and better

If your concerned about the authenticity of Heathcliff casting but ok with other casting (Nelly, the brother in law) then you're a hypocrite.

Who? People who are against rich, privileged people complaining about some minor problems, (and claiming victim status for it,) that are dwarfed by the misery of the majority that they aren't even aware of? Guilty.

Of course, Miss Two Names didn't ask any male friends (if she stoops to have any) if they had experienced the same because that would have ruined her special victim status.

This article would be embarrassing to a 17 year old who's slightly over excited by their first sociology lecture.

β€˜Not for ogling’: forget Titian, Botticelli and the male fantasists – only women can paint great female nudes From Yoko Ono to Frida Kahlo, from Louise Bourgeois to Artemisia Gentileschi, women have long been capturing the unvarnished truth about their own bodies – and that’s why my novel Female, Nude weaves ...

I'd be embarrassed by this if I was a 16 year old sociology student which, to be fair, this columnist eternally is.

"Amelia was created to teach children from West Yorkshire". Jeez, that's knowing your audience, isn't it?

Mostly correct, although no model has hundreds of parts and only a few models are over Β£100.

Indeed can't even have a programme about her without a Guardian writer making it about feminism. Mind you they'd do this about breakfast cereal.

Evil Influencer: The Jodi Hildebrandt Story review – shall we all vow not to watch true-crime this twisted in 2026? This terrifying documentary about the Utah life coach convicted of extreme child abuse feels supremely grubby. How about a new year’s resolution not to watch – or make – anything this grim ever again?

It seems rarer because it's under reported and Mangan, here, wants to keep it that way.

The Zorg by Siddharth Kara review – scarcely imaginable horrors at sea A vivid and chilling account of the deadly voyage that triggered the abolition of the Atlantic slave trade

There'll never be a book like this in the @theguardian.com about the 2 million victims of the Barber slave trade because poor white people are as dismissed now as they were then.
