across the nation are receiving unsettling texts.
“It’s not fair, you women are taking over the world now.”
That was one of the texts Shanta Trivedi, an assistant law professor at the University of Baltimore, told Inside Higher Ed she received from an unknown number on Jan. 30. More texts arrived the same day, she said, including, “Law school isn’t fair for us men anymore. The women always outperform us now.”
She didn’t respond. “I was terrified, because it sounded like a student who was upset,” Trivedi said. “I also was teaching at night and my class happened to be all female, and I just felt very unnerved by the whole thing.”
She soon learned she wasn’t the only female law professor at her university who had received one of these texts: A handful of others had all gotten them the same day or the next and reported them to an administrator. And she learned from another female law professor on social media that the University of Baltimore wasn’t the only institution affected—nor was the phenomenon confined to the East Coast.

Here we go! The texter wrote It's not fair! in the same text as women are outperforming us! What stage 4 stupidity. White men are so scared of strong, able and intelligent women. I am so pleased women are much wiser because their physical strength to intimidate, harass and abuse us just will not work. We can think circles around these simpletons.
