One thing I'm excited about is how women who don't have children and women who do are seeing this "childless cat lady" rhetoric as a common enemy. I feel like in the past, another tactic conservatives used was to pit women who had kids against women who didn't, and have us sort of fight among ourselves. But now their rhetoric is just so baldly... WEIRD let's say, that a wide swath of women are starting to see through it. Maybe?
But PS the egg apron was baffling. Not that it happened, but that she and/or the two of them decided to post it. Like what's the message in that? It seemed to take her down a peg. Tickets to Greece? Nah, but how bout an egg apron...
“If the takeaway here isn’t immediately evident: cats bad, cows good! Married women constantly pregnant good, people without children “less mentally stable,” actually “sociopathic”, based on Vance’s research, conducted by going on Twitter!”

The cow vs. cat lady framing is spot on.
