There has never, in the history of the world, been a better time to be a woman in the West. We have freedoms — freedom to get an education, to hold a job, to live on our own. When I finish writing this VIP post, I will go to the gym. I don't need anyone's permission to do that. Technology makes it possible for me to have this job, and also means I don't have to beat our dirty laundry on the rocks in the creek behind my home.
So why are women so ... angry?
I ask this because Saoirse Ronan wants to play a Bond villain. Not because she likes the franchise or thinks it could be interesting. No, she wants to be the bad guy because it will help "girls and women, to see someone who can just take all that pent-up anger and direct it somewhere."
Saoirse Ronan tells Empire Magazine that she is “dead serious” about wanting to play a Bond villain.

Ronan has a net worth of somewhere between $9 million and $16 million, and she's living proof that money can't buy happiness. Or perspective, for that matter.
Unless, of course, she is talking about girls and women who have been dehumanized and disenfranchised by the trans movement. The countless female athletes of all ages who have seen their athletic spots go to boys cosplaying as girls or women, or those like Payton McNabb, who were permanently injured when a "trans-identifying" boy spiked a volleyball into her face. What about women like me, who are offended when our womanhood is reduced to our anatomy or bodily functions? I've been called a "womb owner," a "birthing person," a "menstruating individual," and an "egg producer." That last one was courtesy of Richard Levine, the Assistant Secretary for Health and Human Services under Joe Biden.
I'm a woman. An adult female human. Not a chicken.
Or what about women like Jessica Gorman, whose daughter Sheridan was gunned down by an illegal alien in Chicago earlier this year? Democrats barely gave Gorman the time of day as she testified before Congress about her loss and how Democrats enabled the violent criminal illegals who stole her daughter from her. Or Allyson Phillips, whose daughter Laken Riley fought for 18 minutes against an illegal alien trying to rape her, until that illegal alien bashed Riley's skull with a rock, killing her. Riley's smartwatch recorded the fight and her time of death.
What about the women and girls victimized by guys like Richard Cox in Virginia, a convicted sex offender who used online children's swim lesson schedules to invade female locker rooms and expose himself to women and girls? Or the female inmates housed with men like Tremaine Carroll, who raped three female inmates before the state of California finally removed them from his presence?
Or the women and girls in the U.K., who are sexually assaulted and raped by Islamic migrants so frequently that the U.K. is now handing out pamphlets to asylum seekers explaining to them that, yes, in fact, women in the U.K. do have rights and should not be raped. Are those the women Ronan is talking about?
No, of course not.
Nor is she talking about the women and girls in Afghanistan who cannot leave their houses and must wear oppressive Islamic garb. They cannot get an education; they cannot get a job, they cannot even get basic medical care. Yet there's little outrage on their behalf.
None of those women are who Ronan cares about, of course. Instead, she's speaking to the same crowd of mentally unwell, emotionally unstable women who claim they see themselves in Lindsay Clancy, who killed her three children by strangling them with exercise bands. For some reason, those privileged, spoiled, and coddled women are the ones who Ronan thinks have all the pent-up anger that she must bring to the screen as a Bond villain.
The saddest part is that some producer is probably reading Ronan's comments and getting a script written as we speak. Bond is, after all, one of the last franchises that Hollywood hasn't completely destroyed yet, but not for lack of trying. Turning 007's next villain into a feminist screed is a sure way to do that, and for what? So Saoirse Ronan can pretend she's got things so tough?
