Emily McCombs, an editor for the liberal Huffington Post, recently landed in hot water after tweeting about her sexist New Years Resolutions, as reported by The Daily Caller.
McCombs’ New Years Resolution
In a tweet which has since been deleted, McCombs expressed the following hopes for 2018:
“New Year’s resolutions:
1. Cultivate female friendships[.]
2. Band together to kill all men[.]”
The post came from her @msemilymccombs Twitter account on Friday, Decemeber 29, 2017. Following the strong backlash, McCombs removed the misandrist post, however, she is not out of the woods just yet.
Established Pattern of Anti-Male Rhetoric
Further inspections into the history of her writings and social media posts unearthed what many perceive as deep heated loathing of men. McCombs also has a young son and has lamented over her struggles with raising a “good man.”
“Of course, we all want to raise feminist sons. I wrote an article a few months ago detailing the ways I try to do just that,” she writes. “But my efforts are starting to seem like grains of sand against a steady wave-crash of misogyny and rape culture.“
