The Handmaid's Tale got this right, it's not what they intended, though.

This is a compilation of videos circulating online of women raging or hurting their kids or staring blankly into space while holding their infants, claiming: "I'm so mentally unwell I can't even care for my child, and this is how common postpartum depression is. This is what childbirth does.” “Same, Lindsay.” #Lindsayclancy

Many of these posts are tagged with #PPDawareness, pushing the narrative that women have always suffered like this in silence, and that this level of severe instability is just "how common suffering actually is."

If this new "awareness" successfully convinces the world that motherhood is an inherently dangerous state that drives women to violent hair-trigger rage or total dysfunction, what does that mean for women?

How do we keep children and society safe? Should every woman undergo mandatory psychiatric screening before becoming a mother? Should new mothers be barred from returning to work, or forbidden from serving as doctors, judges, or police officers if they take antidepressants? If women are painted as a demographic capable of snapping without warning and that this is widespread and previously hidden you are describing a group of people no society could safely trust with authority or responsibility.

This isn't genuine advocacy, I doubt they care about Clancy or her kids, look how easily they harm their own. This is the aggressive protection of victimhood status. Many supporters of Lindsay Clancy are pushing so hard against the evidence because they are terrified of the alternative: a woman being held legally responsible rather than excused as a "victim of biology."

The core premise of this radical ideology is that every woman is inherently capable of greatness, and if she fails or harms her child, she must be a helpless victim of her biology or society. Every woman is loving and if she isn’t- society is asking too much of her. Except this is what women are made to do.

If your goal is to protect women's parental autonomy, you cannot take the normal stress and sacrifice we all experience as mothers and elevate it to postpartum rage, psychosis, and depression. Extreme postpartum conditions are just not as common as social media trends make them out to be, and sacrificing accountability to gain victimhood status for an imaginary collective identity - women- will do a lot of harm to your own cause and to everyone.

"Himpathy”, “medical misogyny” , “vicarious violence,” “substantive equality” and “gender washing,” are presented as ways of describing the reality of the injustice women experience. They can be dismissed as silly, and we have fun with them but also take the harm they cause seriously.

In tomorrow's episode Janice Fiamengo, Jim Nuzzo, Tom Golden and I will discuss the new feminist terminology: Himpathy, leg hair harrassment, medical misogyny and vicarious violence!

Next week i will dig into the surrogacy and the ongoing case with West and the genetic parents of the baby with the heart defect and how this relates to the feminist revenge fantasy - the Handmaids Tale (that I have finished all 6 seasons of, Lord have mercy!)

Piety is something we often see weaponized by Cluster B pathologies, this is a great example!

There’s a growing narrative around this new type of Borderline Personality Disorder: are they suffering in silence?

This is the anatomy of a Cluster B breakdown. It perfectly encapsulates what happens when a boundary is held firm. My favourite was the Narcissistic Pivot!

We are currently living through what I see as a silent Cluster B epidemic (Borderline, Narcissistic, Histrionic traits) so we need to be able to screen for toxic, manipulative, or destructive female behaviour in real life, not to fall prey. One of my gaols here is to help with that screening.

So, this Monday I'm trying something new! A short, but focused, real-time case study analyzing raw Body Cam footage, breaking down the exact behavioral cues, micro-expressions, gaslighting tactics, and entitlement patterns as they happen.

So keep an eye out for that, and on Thursday we will be diving into "Quiet Borderline" as requested!

What does a psychosis actually look like? How is this case different from the one she’s compared to? Overnight she was made a martyr by the media- what is wrong with that narrative? I take apart the psychiatric explanation step by step.
