A Discussion About the True Nature of Woman
American Thinker ^ | 21 Sep, 2026 | Christopher Chantril

Posted on 09/22/2026 12:44:17 PM PDT by MtnClimber

In the wake of the Lindsay Clancy Verdict and the Sydney Sweeney Pile-On and the Sophie Cunningham Point-ology it is time for a comprehensive and mandatory discussion of the issue of Women in the Public Square.

WARNING to my liberal lady friends: You may not feel “safe” if you read this article. You will certainly experience it as “unwelcome.”

Experts agree that the issue was raised by German sociologist Georg Simmel over a century ago. I first wrote about it 18 years ago. Simmel argued that it was not centuries of oppression that powered the feminist movement, but the new technologies that “made for less labor in the household” for those who could afford them. The unaccustomed leisure provoked unease, even frustration, in middle-class women, and in response they sought activity outside the home. I wrote:

Simmel understood that in the short term the public sphere for women would be defined by the rules “created by men and for men” but that eventually women would transform the public square to suit “a more feminine sensibility.”

And how.

Now, my view is that the “public square” was part of an adaptation by men to dial down their conflicts from war to sports, and from duels at sunrise to a spirited discussion on the floor of the House of Commons. BTW, according to Google, “Swords were outlawed in the House of Commons on October 30, 1313, by King Edward II.”

It took 500 years, but in the 19th century men replaced duels with sports. Today, I say “men have a Culture of Insult.”

Do you see the issue? Women do not have a Culture of Insult. That is why our Southern women say “Bless Her Heart” and Brit women say “God love ’er.” I say that “women have a Culture of Complaint.”

One look at that woman’s face and you can tell that she’s A. a completely amoral sociopath and B. completely unhinged. Neither is an excuse for murder no matter how much attorneys try to spin and abuse the insanity defense (which has a very narrow definition), though apparently lots of people (i.e. feminist shrews and their castrated male supporters) seem to believe so.

For many people, identity politics trumps criminal justice.

For many people, identity politics trumps everything.

I must state my opinion that I’m grateful to God to have women in my life.

The root of the problem is not the nature of women. It’s that the nature of women has been exploited by the father of lies.

The missing piece is truth. Women who love the truth are always on the right path. And quite pleasant for company.

Yep. Black cops are much harder on Black criminals than White cops. The Black cops had to grow up in the hood. Revenge is sweet.

Of course, today's liberal woman scoffs at all of this, and becomes either Jezebel or Gomer.

They may scoff, but if you look at the popular women's fiction, like Sex & the City, they still end with a wedding, just like Jane Austen.

It’s funny though. I had 6 earrings, colored hair and was goth into my 20s.

I attended a TEA party rally in Connecticut and was treated pretty viciously.

I still have 6 earrings and I’m 50. Always been who I am though.

Those earrings took months of research and decision making, and I interviewed piercing pros in 3 states. Tattoos are fine if they mean something, or a lot of thought is out into them but these people just pick garbage from a menu. Where is the thought in that?

The Lord was gracious enough to match me with a fine Christian woman that I had to lose a job and move 700 miles to meet. Satan can’t have her because Jesus got her first. Satan is getting a bunch of them, though. Lindsey Clancy couldn’t be more satanic if she suddenly sprouted horns - and her worshippers are actually worshipping he that dwells within her.

All women are bi-polar. Prove me wrong.

Just as all women are at least a 4 out of 10 on the Crazy scale of the Hot/Crazy matrix, all women are a little bit bi.

The only question is if they are bi-polar or bi-sexual.

From the article: Eliot writes that: Like all complaining women, she complained in the expectation of being soothed...

"A woman's complaint is her confession." - Alexander Grace
