Sex, Marriage and the American Woman
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

"If they can make a cologne to attract a man, you'd think they'd make one to repel him as well." Diane Ford knows men. She's chewed them up and spat them out. Asked to name her ideal man, she'd either cite her divorce lawyer or the husbands who have provided her with such great material. Whether it's the problem of crotch-nuzzling German Shepherds at parties, or men's obsession with their own shit ("Most of them never got over 'Mummy, look' "), this Minnesota road comic takes no prisoners. With the cutesy face of Wilma Flintstone and the acid tongue of Bette Davis, Ford is a slick sourpuss.
