This week, TikTok and OnlyFans star Rebecca Goodwin made headlines after walking out of a podcast—one we won’t dignify by naming because, quite frankly, they don’t deserve the attention. From the moment she arrived, the three male hosts appeared determined to tear her down, subjecting her to relentless bullying and condescension. Their goal was clear: to humiliate and discredit her.
When Rebecca finally had enough and walked out in tears, rather than reflect on their behaviour, the hosts celebrated their so-called victory, proudly posting the footage online. But their attempt to mock her backfired spectacularly, as an overwhelming wave of support flooded in from good and decent human beings who were tired of seeing successful, self-made women belittled for sport.
For those unfamiliar with Rebecca Goodwin, she’s far more than just an adult content creator—she’s a powerhouse. Whatever you’re opinion on her line of work, it’s undeniable that she has fiercely built her career from the ground up, she’s now a self-made millionaire who rightly takes pride in the life she has created for herself and her children. But her success doesn’t stop there. She’s also dedicated to giving back, providing affordable housing for families in need and actively working towards launching her own charity.
The moronic podcast hosts persistently pressed her on what she had given back to society, dismissing her response when she explained about her work and then added that, not only had she contributed with her charitable work, but she had also paid over £200K in taxes the previous year—an amount sufficient to cover the salaries of six NHS nurses. Despite this, they remained worryingly focused on undermining her, determined to make her feel as though her chosen career made her less valuable to society. That somehow she owed society something when they themselves deliver absolutely bugger all to it.
Her win in the end was a reasonably satisfying one, there’s talk of the podcast being taken down. The presenters have had to face a tsunami of back lash. Rebecca’s the one laughing all the way to the bank – it hasn’t hurt her career.
But somehow it still doesn’t feel good enough. Scratch that……..IT’S NOT GOOD ENOUGH.
In recent years, there has been a growing wave of frustration, exhaustion, and outright anger among women towards men. This isn’t a sudden shift, nor is it about individual….or even the majority of men as such, but rather the systemic and cultural issues that make life harder, more dangerous, and often deeply unfair for women. From casual sexism to the looming threat of violence, the emotional toll of misogyny is pushing women to demand better change with a new level of urgency.
Whether it’s being spoken over in meetings, catcalled in the street, or subjected to patronising comments about their capabilities, these constant biting comments and casual sexism reinforce the message that women’s voices, opinions, and successes matter less. Quite honestly, it’s absolutely exhausting.
Our frustration is compounded when these experiences are brushed off as jokes or overreactions, forcing women into the debilitating position of constantly having to defend their right to be taken seriously.
Misogyny is not just hatred of women; it’s the ingrained cultural bias that upholds double standards and restricts women’s freedoms. Women are still judged more harshly for their choices—whether it’s their clothing, their career ambitions, or their decision to have (or not have) children, or to stay at home (or not).
They are told to be ambitious but not “too much,” to be confident but not “bossy,” to be sexy but not “slutty.” Meanwhile, men rarely face the same scrutiny.
Women are often expected to manage emotions, soothe egos, and educate men on issues of sexism and inequality. Then to top it all, the world is not even equally safe for men and women.
Women grow up with a deep awareness of their own vulnerability: walking with keys between their fingers, sharing their locations with friends, avoiding dark streets, and constantly assessing risk in situations that men often navigate without a second thought.
The statistics on violence against women are soul destroying. In many parts of the world, femicide rates are rising. Domestic violence remains a serious crisis. Women are killed by partners, ex-partners, or random strangers simply for just existing in public spaces.
Remember their names; Astra Sirapina, Margaret Maude Hanson, Kristine Sparane, Rhiannon Skye Whyte, Barbara Nomakhosi….just some of the 80 names of women in the UK that The Guardian published as they aimed to report on every woman allegedly killed by a man in 2024 alone.
When these issues are raised, the response is often nothing more than bullshit excuses—
“It’s not all men,”
“She should have been more careful,”
“What did she expect wearing that”—rather than collective male accountability.
It’s time that we said ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
Women’s anger isn’t irrational or misplaced—it’s a justified response to a world that continues to disregard their voices, their safety, and their dignity. This anger isn’t about hating men; it’s about demanding a world where women no longer have to fight just to be heard, to be safe, to be recognised and to be treated as equals.
Men who feel defensive about this anger should ask themselves: are you listening? Are you willing to challenge your own biases, call out other men- men that think it’s okay to vilify and humiliate a woman who has single-handedly built a career whilst providing for her family- and be part of the solution? Because if you aren’t then you are part of a very big problem.
