I had to read this twice to believe it. Remember Charlotte Allen, who said that a male janitor with a bucket could have stopped the Sandy Hook killer, or some "husky" unarmed 12 year-old boys could have charged him, led by some male ex-football players among the faculty? Well, she's back today and she's doubled down on Teh Crazy over at National Review:
I am, however, blaming our culture that denies, dismisses, and denigrates the masculine traits—including size, strength, male aggression and a male facility for strategic thinking–that until recently have been viewed as essential for building a society and protecting its weaker members. We now have Hanna Rosin at Slate urging parents to buy their little boys Easy Bake ovens so they’ll be more like little girls. Women are less aggressive by instinct, and they are typically trained to be nice. I praised and continue to praise the courage of the Sandy Hook principal, Dawn Hochsburg, and the teachers who gave up their lives along with her, but with some men on the scene who knew what to do, some of those lives might have been saved.
Got that? School massacres can be prevented, or at least mitigated if we keep the little boys away from the Easy Bake ovens. What's next,
men who quilt?
This is so trans-stupid that I'm starting to wonder if Charlotte Allen isn't trolling us, in a bid to become the next Ann Coulter.
