I don’t think I want to know what an expectant… is but I think they stated they suffer from arthritis which seems young. This is where ‘identifying as’ falls down because biologically and medically that is never going to work.

Given they've also awarded the New York Times the prize for international reporting after they recently published that idiotic and poorly researched piece on Anglophiles celebrating the coronation (see screenshot) I feel the Pulitzer judges have lost all credibility

Since when is Buck’s Fizz non alcoholic?

ok, I take it all back, this guy’s clearly a twerp

I'm missing the point, obviously, but what the bloody fuck is breakfast pie?

Has it got anything to do with LangCleg? <glances around suspiciously>

There are lots of woeful misogynists who have useful and interesting things to say when they’re not talking about women

presumably this chap falls into that camp

"Femaleness is a universal sex defined by self-negation… I’ll define as female any psychic operation in which the self is sacrificed to make room for the desires of another…[The] barest essentials [of femaleness are] an open mouth, an expectant asshole, blank, blank eyes"

Let's just take a moment to fully remember what a raging misogynist this person is. It is an insult to all women that anybody gives a shit what Andrea Long Chu thinks about anything.

The Pulitzer website says the award is for "For book reviews that scrutinize authors as well as their works, using multiple cultural lenses to explore some of society’s most fraught topics." The website then specifies 5 specific book reviews that contributed to winning the prize.

Great for Chu to have won an award for their book reviews. Doesn't mean any of their comments about women are any more valid or relevant as a result!

Congratulations to Caitlin Dickerson, Anna Wolfe and Caroline Kitchener for their awards for Investigative Reporting, Explanatory Reporting and Local Reporting respectively.

Awarding male born individuals for being misogynistic creeps?

The patriarchy is alive and well.

Rightsraptor · 10/05/2023 10:01

Yes, that's the one.

But clearly those reductive things Long Chu said women were can't actually be true because hey! A woman has won a Pullitzer Prize! So we must be more than just expectant assholes after all.

RealityFan · 10/05/2023 09:59

Haha, just when you think the world can't get more preposterous, it surpasses itself.

All we need to know is that the trans grift is now part of the establishment. In plain sight, for all to see.

Rightsraptor · 10/05/2023 09:58

So that's going to shift the sex balance of prizes awarded, with another woman appearing to have won.

Soon be 50:50.

The one with the Expectant Asshole?
