    The Naomi Wolf thing is just so strange - when someone first mentioned it, I was not even quite willing to believe it. I do wonder if something legit happens to someone’s brain as they get older and complete nonsense sets in. It also might be that a certain type of woman is prone to feeling alienated as they age - meaning: women that were exceptionally attractive when they were younger (like Naomi Wolf) may have a lot to deal with as they age, and find that people may not cater to them as much as they had before and this is a rude awakening, I’m sure…some men may deal with this too, I dunno - thinking Charles in Charge and Kirk Cameron.

    And looking in on this again, it looks like Naomi Klein was getting confused with her “doppelganger” so much that she ended up writing a book about it that only recently came out?
