'You Snivling Little Maniacs' Feminist Icon, Camille Paglia Absolutely DESTROYS Libtards Attempting to Force people to Use Gender Pronouns

University of Toronto professor Jordan Peterson has become both a pariah and minor celebrity for famously refusing to use genderless pronouns.



He appears to have a new ally.



Feminist icon Camille Paglia was asked about the backlash Peterson has faced for his outspoken opposition to Canadian legislation (Bill C-16), which potentially would make refusal to use genderless pronouns a criminal offense.



During a recent presentation of her new book Free Women, Free Men, a member of the audience asked Paglia what she thought of Peterson’s act of civil disobedience. Paglia had not heard of Peterson, but when the man in the audience explained the situation to her, she did not hold back.



“This professor refused to use the pronouns that are being requested or demanded by the gender activists?” Paglia asked.



“Yes.”



“Well, more power to him, I say.”



Paglia, who received her PhD in English literature from Yale, continued, calling efforts to control speech in this fashion “ridiculous.” She said transgender activists should contribute to language instead of removing words from the lexicon.



“Write a poem. Write a book. Look at Gloria Steinem. Her one great accomplishment is that she was a co-founder of Ms. Magazine. There was a very important contribution made by the word “Ms.” Before this, unlike the romance languages, in English you had Mrs. or miss. If you were unmarried at age 40, 50, 60, you were still called miss in a very demeaning way. Whereas in France a young girl is called mademoiselle; the minute a woman gets into her 20s she is called Madame, whether she is married or unmarried. She has dignity, she has authority… Ms. was a very important contribution to the language.”
