Sady Doyle (born in 1982)[1] is an American feminist writer.[2][3]

Career

In 2005, Doyle graduated from Eugene Lang College.[4] In 2008, they[5] created the feminist blog Tiger Beatdown,[6] which continued until June 2013.[7] Their blog post criticizing Liz Lemon in 2010 was often quoted.[8][9][10] Alyssa Rosenberg, writing for ThinkProgress in 2011, criticized Doyle’s blog post that year that itself criticized the sexual violence in Game of Thrones.[11][12] Doyle also led social awareness campaigns including #MenCallMeThings and #MooreandMe (the latter referring to Michael Moore[13]) while writing for the blog.[14][15][16]

In 2011, they received the Women's Media Center’s first Social Media Award, which "recognizes individuals who have made outstanding contributions to advancing women’s and girls’ visibility and power in media".[17][18]

Doyle was a staff writer at Rookie and In These Times, and has written for many other places as well.[4][14] Their writing is included as part of the six anthologies Rookie: Yearbook One (2012), The Book of Jezebel: An Illustrated Encyclopedia of Lady Things (2013), Rookie: Yearbook Two (2014), Nasty Women: Feminism, Resistance and Revolution in Trump’s America (2017), Believe Me: How Trusting Women Can Change the World (2020), and Marilyn Monroe: The Last Interview: and Other Conversations (2020).[19][20]

They also wrote two books, Trainwreck: The Women We Love to Hate, Mock, and Fear ... and Why (2016),[21][22] and Dead Blondes and Bad Mothers: Monstrosity, Patriarchy, and the Fear of Female Power (2019).[23][24] Kirkus Reviews called Trainwreck a "well-rounded, thoughtful analysis of what can make and break a woman when she’s placed in the spotlight,"[25] and Dead Blondes "[u]nflinching, hard-charging feminist criticism."[26]

Other

In 2013, Kurt Metzger feuded with Doyle and Lindy West via Facebook and Twitter during a defense of rape humor.[27][28][29][30]

Doyle is nonbinary[31] and bisexual.[32][33]
