OK, #VintageMagTweets tonight are about how we ladies are just naturally feeble in our innate womanliness, and can never cross the confines of our small, soft ladybrains.
A woman's crowning achievement. All women. All of them.
We girlies just can't help ourselves. Darning's in our DNA.
Some females expect to be the victims of domestic violence because that's their role as women.
Girls are naturally obedient and it's therefore absolutely outrageous when they misbehave.
We *enjoy* being sexually assaulted in the street by strangers.
Yeah, we can't for the life of us shut up.
That is our entire lives, right there.
"Of course".
We're incapable of speaking to waiters without the assistance of a man.
See, the thesaurus itself knows how fuzzy our ladybrains are.
Only women are capable of hysteria. Not sound, sensible men.
(I do know the etymology of that word re Ancient Greeks and wandering wombs etc. But haven't we gone beyond that?)
We just love it when male colleagues come out with uninvited comments about our bodies and what they'd like to do to them. Really.
It's our role and destiny to play second fiddle to men.
George will have to help tidy up because she's bound in by society's sexist stereotypes.
If only she'd been born a man she'd have been able to behave as she liked.
I'll finish for now (there are tons more of these) with this wagging finger from the Sun about how girls and boys have to behave differently at home and you're a dunce if you disagree.
Adding to the #VintageMagThread about ladybrains now, and about how women are just naturally in pursuit of sexual harassment, low-paid jobs, screaming tantrums etc. We can't help ourselves. It's the way were built.
The BMA - yes, the BMA - telling girls their primary quality needs to be beauty, and boys that they need strength and courage.
That's about 1980.
Wifehood and motherhood are our highest glory.
Tony Benn not even stopping to consider girls might study physics and pursue careers in that field.
All women are Naturally Docile.
We have teeny weeny stomachs.
Typical woman.
Whereas her father was a model of stability right the way through his life.
Whereas her father was a model of stability right the way through his life.
Childishness, petulance and vanity: all very much female traits and rarely found in men.
The thing is, men are just naturally better at everything.
Women, these are our special areas. Don't be looking outside them, now.
Women's libbers: responsible for Sin and Family Breakdown.

But, you know, this is what happens when women try to subvert the natural order and use their ladybrains in the wrong way.
Gosh, aren't we just, though?
In fact, we're SO stupid, we can't turn a dial on a radio.
All the women I know who are happy on their own must be pretending.
Our lowly role is but to wait alongside men, and support them when required.
Yeah, lock up the daughters because it's their fault and nothing to do with the sons.
Lastly for tonight: did I mention women are naturally stupid?
I'll continue with this thread midweek.
More on the #VintageMagTweets thread about ladies' feeble natures, and how we're all born to be fluffy and daft. Most of these clippings come from the very early 80s.
'I am not saying women are thick, except, I am.'
We ladies are just pathetically at the mercy of our moods.
Clearly this is wrong, because it doesn't have the opportunity for close inspection of riparian habitat (which is what this woman wants).
Or rats.
Yes, what can it be? After all, every male driver is exemplary and it's only females who have accidents.
We can't walk two steps down the road without breaking down and sobbing.
(I bet we know how to use a semi colon properly, though.)
Pulse magazine was a professional publication for doctors. Yes, really, I'm not kidding,
And this is a publication by the British Medical Journal! Yeah, aren't we women all mere blobs of liquid, waiting for an appropriate vessel before we can take our shape?
Squelch.
We are almost too stupid to be allowed out on our own.
Some of us can't even be trusted to use a telephone correctly.
Flippin' feminists, ruining everything again.
A *proper* women is entirely credulous and obedient.
Men can shoot their mouths off any old how, but it's disgusting if a woman uses a rude word.
Women: innately dull.
We LIVE for validation of our domestic skills.
OK, more on Sunday.
But one of the many reasons I tweet this stuff is because women have been told since forever that their very sex makes them unfit for all kinds of activities and employment. That, being born female, they're inferior. They can be barred and mistreated with impunity.
Now, suddenly, I'm hearing people blithely saying, 'we don't even know what a man or a woman is anymore'. Oh, really? You knew it when you were busy banning us from all kinds of places and jobs, or when you were paying us less, or when you were inflicting violence on us.
When you were telling us we had no right to bodily autonomy or to fair taxation or to our children post-divorce.
So excuse me if I'm cynical about how, all of a sudden, the distinction between the sexes has apparently become 'indistinguishable'.
Here is the end of the #VintageMagThread about the innate nature of women and how we're just born feeble and can't help it.
Cartland 2.
Proper loving wives don't actually need or want sexual satisfaction for themselves.
This is from an information leaflet by MAWS, who manufactured baby milk.
Kit-form woman. We're all like this; we can't escape our destinies.
"Just you have babies."
This one has me boggled. *Even in a hostage situation* it's the women who are doing the cleaning!
Yes, all men are those things, without a single exception. And no woman is, obvs.
"deformed men".
Women: exactly the same as plants or robins.
Women are born without judgment.
Women have no capacity for logic.
(And that's a medical FACT.)
If we don't want children, we're Abnormal.
We're born to cook and clean.
All women want a baby boy.
And to make our husbands contented.
That's the end of this thread. x
