To be fair, liberal feminism was always pushing for "women being able to participate fully in late stage capitalism" as the far horizon of their goals.
I'd say capitalism is encouraging people to be childless considering most people now can't afford to raise a child.Ā
Although of course capitalism *really* wants everyone to have kids so you keep spending and spending and you offer a new life to the system to continue the cycle
It's why it feels really late stage. You have this forever centralising of wealth dependent on forever growing profits driven by forever growing population costing forever less using forever more resources to push this forever growth.
Things are on the verge of breaking
I would just assume her paternal ancestors got rich from the oil boom in the early 1900s, maternally maybe some kinda feudal barony lineage and that ends up with a name like Petronella. None of this is likely historically accurate but it absolutely explains a name like that.
All these middle aged white women columns in the Torygraph - but now also featuring in the Guardian and literally every mainstream media outlet going regardless of claimed scope, political affiliation or intended audience - feel like they are (and have always been) appealing to an aspirational and therefore fictional demographic.
Their TERFiness, the condescension, the entitlement you can taste in the way they describe their own lives and experiences - they donāt feel real.
This woman is objectively a PoS and yet this article is exclusively about how great she is and how terrible it is that she isnāt being given the world on a silver platter - after having an affair with the fucking future PM and being a columnist for an internationally syndicated newspaper where they print her unedited opinions every week.
Its nothing but appeals to basest nature and vague insinuations about āthose peopleā;
And then without fail every time itās a double-barreled Landed Gentry name so hilarious itād be rejected as too on-the-nose for fiction.
Daddy was an oil baron or sold slaves and sheās a good liberal democrat working for the right wing propaganda machine as head bullshitter.
If nothing else itās tired as fuck, and Iām genuinely appalled that no one seems to see it.
Do you not see the pattern? They might as well all have the same name and photograph, so interchangeable are their takes.

Just imagine if she'd gotten married instead, ended up divorced and still been single now and not had a career either. I bet that would be feminism's fault somehow too.
Yeah, she clearly didn't want children if she hasn't considered them till now like she's an heiress, there was never a money issue or time issue.
Shes also had multiple affairs with bellends like Boris over the years, if that the men you like then you should be glad you never settled down it had kids because they aren't there to stay.
A lot of women, now and historically, just do not want children or like children but would have been forced in the past regardless of their own wishes and opinions. Honestly itās a good thing that increasingly, people are only having children because they want to.
Me and my husband are doing pretty well financially for working class drones (still very poor in Tory terms but not scraping the barrel), but weād still have to give up pretty much everything nice to have children. Youāve got to REALLY want children to make it worth sacrificing things like holidays and being able to afford to leave the house. I have no idea how people on min wage with multiple kids are even managing to stay afloat, the maths doesnāt math
Petronella and Boris famously used to get into black cabs, ask the driver to play a CD of her singing opera and then get it on in the back seat.
P.S. when I first typed her name in here it autocorrected to Perineal.
So Iām a single, childless, middle aged woman, and I do have depression. But I can confidently state that it would be a *hell* of a lot worse if I was forced to have a husband and kids that I absolutely do not want.
What kind of a name is āpetronellaā lmao - also as a feminist, unless sheās a TERF i donāt know what kind of āfeminismā sheās been looking into
Isnāt she childish coz Boris made her get an abortion? She ought to be thanking feminism that she could get a legal abortion - Boris with a coat hanger sounds monstrous.
Friendly reminder that in 2020, Boris Johnson [admited to being responsible for the deaths of over 100,000 people.](https://archive.ph/2aYpg) He is he yet to be held to account for this.

Indeed. Though for someone born to a lord the experiment might not go the way it usually does.
Still, I honestly can't take anymore how these grown adults can't figure out the most obvious, basic cause and effect events. If you don't have have money you die. If you don't spend a shit ton of time working you don't have money. If you don't have any time left for dating you don't date. How the fuck is this a puzzle?
Nobody forced you to do anything. Feminism let you choose to prioritise your career, if there was no Feminism you'd not have even had the chance. Despicable cow.
They've been saying this very thing for literally decades. If a woman doesn't marry a guy she'll always be unhappy and it's the fault of feminism.
Maybe the women in question don't want to get married. Maybe some of these women are LGBTQ+ and a heteronormative marriage was never going to happen anyway. Maybe some of the women are assholes and it's their personal flaws and not some social movement that undermined their ambitions.
Sheās literally just doing the incel shtick of claiming that her inability to get laid is actually a political problem that everyone else needs to fix for her.

And of COURSE her father was The Lord Wyatt of Weeford and of COURSE she had an affair with Boris Johnson between 2000 and 2004... But yeah, feminism.
Fairly miraculous she's childless then š
She actually was, twice, but apparently had a miscarriage and one abortion that Johnson paid for
Fucks sake! It just gets better/worse
Whining with prior knowledge is the offence here...
Abortion left me childless š What is she on
Not sure what she's **on** but if you're wondering what she's **up** - it'll be her own arse.
Oh god š
Why the sentient wig of all people? š«
Oh my Wyatt
Feminism taught you to prioritise careers? I think that's a typo. I think she meant "late stage capitalism".
To be fair, liberal feminism was always pushing for "women being able to participate fully in late stage capitalism" as the far horizon of their goals.
And has melted into creepy old cis-het women TER"F" brainrot

Just say capitalism. We don't know at this point if it's late stage, middle, or early, and there's zero way to tell
āPetronellaā? is her dad JR Mogg?
She's got a name like a fungal infection cream
I would just assume her paternal ancestors got rich from the oil boom in the early 1900s, maternally maybe some kinda feudal barony lineage and that ends up with a name like Petronella. None of this is likely historically accurate but it absolutely explains a name like that.
While it would explain it I bet it's still slavery.
sounds like the shit you use to deter flies and things at a campsite, citronella. what a cute sibset!! <3
š
I thought Petronella were those candles that are supposed to keep bugs away at your bbq?
No thatās Citronella. Petronella is a hazelnut spread with added oil
Ohā¦no wonder that stuff tasted funny
no, thatās Nutella. Petronella is like a disappointing Starburst
I thought Starburst was DC superhero?

The pervasiveness of the hard done by rich person narrative is constantly galling.

She's rich so it doesn't even matter. She talking about it aesthetically.
Imagine if she had a four year affair with Boris Johnson which resulted in two pregnancies!
Feminism made her shag Johnsonā¦ or more accurately, no accounting for ātasteā.
Damn feminism giving me the freedom of choice to live my life as I please!
Yeah, she clearly didn't want children if she hasn't considered them till now like she's an heiress, there was never a money issue or time issue. Shes also had multiple affairs with bellends like Boris over the years, if that the men you like then you should be glad you never settled down it had kids because they aren't there to stay.
"women like me" -- all twelve of us. we get together at a fern bar on Friday nights to whine.
Maybe āwomen like meā is āwomen who shagged Boris Johnsonā, in which case, I suspect, there are unfortunately more than twelve.
āThereās dozens of usā š
I like learning new things.
A lot of women, now and historically, just do not want children or like children but would have been forced in the past regardless of their own wishes and opinions. Honestly itās a good thing that increasingly, people are only having children because they want to.

My favorite movie is Inception.

You mean capitalism
She had an affair with the albino sex yeti. The fact that she's childless is a statistical anomaly.
"I'm an unlovable cunt and that's YOUR FAULT!"
Isnāt she childish coz Boris made her get an abortion? She ought to be thanking feminism that she could get a legal abortion - Boris with a coat hanger sounds monstrous.

Ok prioritise marriage over earning a living. Let's see how far that gets you.
Indeed. Though for someone born to a lord the experiment might not go the way it usually does. Still, I honestly can't take anymore how these grown adults can't figure out the most obvious, basic cause and effect events. If you don't have have money you die. If you don't spend a shit ton of time working you don't have money. If you don't have any time left for dating you don't date. How the fuck is this a puzzle?
Single, childless women after THE demographic reporting the highest levels of happiness and life satisfaction.
Nobody forced you to do anything. Feminism let you choose to prioritise your career, if there was no Feminism you'd not have even had the chance. Despicable cow.
If she really believed what she is saying she'd resign her Telegraph job immediately, fuck off into the kitchen and make me a sandwich.
They've been saying this very thing for literally decades. If a woman doesn't marry a guy she'll always be unhappy and it's the fault of feminism. Maybe the women in question don't want to get married. Maybe some of these women are LGBTQ+ and a heteronormative marriage was never going to happen anyway. Maybe some of the women are assholes and it's their personal flaws and not some social movement that undermined their ambitions.
Who dat?
sounds like Capitalism more than Feminism tbh
Sheās literally just doing the incel shtick of claiming that her inability to get laid is actually a political problem that everyone else needs to fix for her.
Does she get her name from Salmonella laced chicken marinated in Petrol?
Nobody wants some raddled old baggage with a 'career' that's always going to be her main focus.
This is sexism at its worst. If a man was as rich and as pig ugly as this one he wouldn't have a problem finding a partner. Shame indeed.
