David Futrelle's site lampoons the Tumblr Women Against Feminism — it's also totally hilarious.

I grew up around tons of animals, and adopted my very own first cat when I was six. I named her Jubilee after my favorite character in X-Men and usually fed her without being reminded. While Jubilee passed away several years ago, and was honestly kind of crazy and mean and used to pee on my bed all the time (I loved her though!), she helped shape me into the cat lady I am today. My cat Agnes is my soulmate, my wingman, and my favorite topic of conversation. When I am not hanging out with her, I am cooking vegan food, talking about my feelings, writing about all sorts of things, and occasionally going to my day job.
Full Name:Β Maeve Connor
Location: Portland, Oregon
Where You Can Find Me on the Internet: Twitter
What I Do for a Living: Nanny for toddler twins
What I Do for Fun: Write about everything, run a vegan supper club, post pictures of my cat on Instagram.
The Furry Members of My Household Are: Right now I just have Agnes, a very fluffy and very demanding suspected Maine Coon mix. I'm hoping to adopt a little brother or sister for her soon though!

How I Deal with Cat/Dog Hair:Β Embrace it.
What I Want to Be When I Grow Up: Advice columnist, because I am really good at telling people what to do. I would also be okay with marrying a wealthy lady and being a kept woman. (I'm not saying I want Ellen and Portia to break up, I'm just saying if they did, I would maybe want Ellen to call me.)
Agnes had to be fine because I needed her to be fine, and if she wasn't fine I'd fall apart even more and that didn't seem possible.
Mr. Fluffy Pants "has his own bedroom," the singer says, adding she "just couldn't leave him."
I'm grazing the poverty line, so I'm cutting back wherever I can — including expensive cat food.
Here are a few (probably) crazy things I've done for my cats — you be the judge of how crazy I am.
My sweet kitty has an opinion about everyone I bring home. I finally started listening to her.
Effie died of infectious peritonitis last year, but now she will be with me always.
The medication is designed to quell anxiety. Turns out certain cats don't react well to it.
