One of my favorite novels, Dietland by Sarai Walker, includes a feminist vigilante group that kills rapists. It's quite satisfying.
Circa 2018--the first time the toilet demon squatted in the White House--I vented at a feminist books discussion group. I thought we were on the same page when I said that my daily chant was, "Kill all misogynists!" Some people laughed, but some were shocked. Someone even suggested the server was a scared off because I yelled about killing "everyone." I definitely didn't say everyone.
I felt stunned that this group of feminists was offended & didn't understand the catharsis of my chant. I'm an empath--I have my furious chants & furious counted cross-stitch, & I write vignettes in which a dragon burns misogynists to a crisp. I wonder if they're as shocked by actual violence against women as they were by my chant.
I will look for that book, thank you, Susan. I hear you about being stunned! I had a somewhat similar reaction at a festival once when I mentioned the book The Power and women in the audience quickly dismissed the book because of what they said was its message of violence to girls. They completely missed what the book was saying. I send you love and solidarity. 💜✊🏽❤️
