The Syllables of Violence- Renee Nicole Good (Or: Why "Fucking Bitch" is a Death Threat)
In this episode of "Femme on the Spectrum", hosted by Elizabeth, she discusses the deep-seated rage that some men exhibit towards women who challenge their perceived entitlement, particularly those who are neurodivergent. She recalls the tragic incident of Renee Nicole Goode, who was killed by an ICE officer when she defied his aggression with calmness, and shares her own experiences of abuse and gaslighting at the hands of her brothers. Using the term "Dystopian Alarm Bell", Elizabeth stresses that when men verbally insult and threaten women, it reflects their own anger and helplessness, not the behaviour or worth of the woman. The podcast encourages its neurodivergent listeners to stay true to themselves and not to let anyone's resentment affect their self-confidence or objectivity. It is a call to action against the normalization of domestic violence and abuse towards neurodivergent women and a passionate commentary on the entitlement of some men.
