    1) Declare yourself a feminist hero
    2) Create some fake posts or a fake website attacking yourself with vile and threatening language (the worse the better)
    3) Run to the liberal press with copies of these "attacks" and declare yourself oppressed,
    4) Demand public sympathy and support
    5) Call any critics or skeptics misogynists
    4) Goto 1
