Gloria Steinem Dead

Thursday, September 03, 2026

Gloria Steinem, the celebrated author and activist who became one of the most visible symbols and potent voices of the U.S. women's movement and a fierce advocate for feminist causes for over six decades, has died. She was 92. With her trademark streaked hair parted down the middle and large aviator glasses, Steinem, a co-founder of Ms. Magazine, was a hugely recognizable presence wherever she went. And she went everywhere: Much of her life as an advocate was spent on the road, speaking at college campuses and community centers, at rallies and marches.

She'd hate me for saying it, but she was a fabulous babe.

There was a great Colbert Report that had Steinem and Jane Fonda doing a cooking demonstration. He was standing between them, and they were loving on him, and it was great.

Two feminist icons, in the kitchen.

RIP. She was a class act.

Feminists help destroy the black nuclear family unit by telling black women they dont need black men.

Thanks?

But I wont be like you progressives and say things like "Good riddance" or "Glad she's dead".

I'll keep it classy.

RIP

You're a pedophile apologist. You're anything but classy.

Best to avoid all keyboards under your conditions.

2. Guaran-damn-tee you that Black women mostly have and had no love for Steinem and her generation of feminists.

You don't know why, do you?

Up to sixty month post birth abortions are legal if you can get at least one white liberal woman on the jury.

"Up to sixty month post birth abortions are legal."

I don't think white liberal women are for killing five year olds, at least not all of them anyway.

Postbirth abortions sound like some posters' brain space around here.

Five year olds make perfect targets for MAGAts armed with AR-15s.

Insanity defense is only guaranteed 'get out of jail' if you are white and have a vag. Plus you need at least one white liberal woman on the jury. It's called the 'feelz' defense.

FYI - Men use and are processed under the insanity defense in much higher total numbers than women.

Also the insanity defense only succeeds in about 15% to 25% of the time.

In your case, based on your posting history, it's 100% guaranteed.

Donner: "FYI - Men use and are processed under the insanity defense in much higher total numbers than women." FYI men are processed in the criminal justice system in much higher total numbers than women, making your statement meaningless and of no value.
