Men’s rights groups
She has been an outspoken critic of A Voice for Men. Michelle Goldberg, writing in The Washington Post, said Filipovic had been “singled out by [men’s rights groups]” for her criticism. Filipovic was also cited in Hate Crimes in Cyberspace as a victim of hate crimes for her feminism. According to Kerryn Goldsworthy, Michelle has been googlebombed by her detractors.
TSA and civil liberties
A Transportation Security Administration (TSA) screener was fired after Filipovic blogged about an incident in which a handwritten comment was left in Filipovic luggage. Filipovic later wrote, “I would much prefer a look at why ‘security’ has been used to justify so many intrusions into our civil liberties”.
Beauty pageants
She has been noted for her writing about beauty pageants, saying “the norms that these contests promote are unfortunately not … obsolete … we pay lip service to women’s rights but focus more on how good women look in a bathing suit”.
Name change
Filipovic’s opposition to a name change for women who marry, published in The Guardian in the year 2013 as “Why should married women change their names? Let men change theirs”, was cited as recommended reading on the social construction of gender in Critical Encounters in Secondary English: Teaching Literary Theory to Adolescents by Deborah Appleman (2014). She married Ty Lohrer McCormick in 2018 and kept her last name upon marriage.
Rasmea Odeh
Filipovic questioned Palestinian activists as well as former Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine member Rasmea Odeh’s claims of having been tortured and raped as a means of coercing a confession to terrorist acts. Furthermore, Filipovic said participation in terrorist acts, like those Odeh, confessed to, was one of her “hard lines.”
Domestic violence and asylum
She has criticized Jeff Sessions’ directive to refuse grants of asylum to women fleeing domestic violence. Filipovic emphasized that women who suffer domestic violence in places where the government refuses to protect them are being persecuted. Filipovic stated that “Sessions, because of his deep antipathy toward immigrants as well as his misogynistic worldview that domestic violence is a private family matter, has undercut this promise of the safe harbor – as well as taken a law meant for protection and turned it into a cudgel of sexist cruelty.”
