“I’ve seen, again and again, brilliant women treated like garbage by mediocre (at best) male Twitter theologians and, tragically, sometimes actual pastors. Women in conservative circles can usually get away with passively cloaking their disagreement as submissive questions.”🧵
“Instead of stating her position, much less arguing for her position, she may feel pressure to state her position as a question. If she is afraid to object openly, she must bracket all objections with plenty of “with all due respect” and “although I appreciate your perspective”
“phrases. With every objection, she must throw in something that soothes the ego of the Twitter Theology Bro™.
But if she plainly states her case or even nears any firmness, she receives brutish acting out. If she doesn’t receive flagrant hostility, she’s almost certainly met

Evidently, my above use of the term misogyny has triggered a few of them.
They're trying to insinuate that Kohberger was a liberal which, even if true, would have nothing to do with the points made in my tweet. We already know several things about him, and his crimes...

Just realised that a man who once put his hand in front of my face and tick tocked around it, seriously saying that my biological clock was ticking - is now the chairman of an organisation that “champions” women and diversity. But of course he is….
“Women are made for having babies. It’s what they do. Why would you want to kick against nature?”
Oh and the more #RespectWomen type hashtags people use, the less likely they are to ACTUALLY respect women. We don’t need a hashtag to see how decent you are 😘

4) If you are not wearing #facemasks given your personal #liberty, than why do women not get extended the same for #Reproductiverights
5) If all life is sacred, than why would we sacrifice 2-3% of our population by #ReopenAmerica too quickly?
