The Timeless War Against Women in Power
History reveals a disturbing pattern: powerful women face identical attacks across millennia. From ancient Egyptian pharaoh Hatshepsut to modern figures like Hillary Clinton, women who seek authority encounter the same sexist playbook-labeled as whores, witches, ugly, shrill, and power-hungry. This organized vilification has enforced patriarchal control for over three thousand years through what Eleanor Herman calls "the Misogynist's Handbook." Most disturbing is how this hatred manifests not just in criticism but in calls for violence-today's "Lock her up!" chants are merely civilized versions of "Off with her head!" The bloodlust directed at powerful women reveals misogyny's most dangerous face, with figures like Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer facing threats of lynching and even a kidnapping plot. Perhaps most surprising? Women perpetuate this hatred too-52 percent of misogynistic tweets come from women, showing how deeply we've internalized these ancient patterns of control.
