In 2004, Wolf reported an alleged incident of "sexual encroachment" by professor Harold Bloom she said she had experienced when she was a Yale undergraduate working on poetry with Bloom two decades earlier. Due to Wolf's feeling that the university had not taken her complaint seriously, she made her complaint public.

Bloom was born in New York City, the son of Paula (Lev) and William Bloom. He lived in the Bronx at 1410 Grand Concourse.[6][7] He was raised as an Orthodox Jew in a Yiddish-speaking household, where he learned literary Hebrew;[

However, Camille Paglia, whose Sexual Personae was published the same year as The Beauty Myth, derided Wolf as unable to perform "historical analysis", and called her education "completely removed from reality."[20] Her comments touched off a series of contentious debates between Wolf and Paglia in the pages of The New Republic.[21][22][23]

Likewise, Christina Hoff Sommers criticized Wolf for publishing the estimate that 150,000 women were dying every year from anorexia. Sommers states that she tracked down the source to the American Anorexia and Bulimia Association who stated that they were misquoted; the figure refers to sufferers, not fatalities. Sommers gave an estimate for the number of fatalities in 1990 as 100–400.[24][25]

The New York Times published a harshly critical assessment of Wolf's work by Caryn James. She lambasted the book as a "sloppily researched polemic as dismissible as a hackneyed adventure film ... Even by the standards of pop-cultural feminist studies, The Beauty Myth is a mess."[26] In a comparatively positive review, The Washington Post called the book "persuasive" and praised its "accumulated evidence".[27]

@BoleynBooks

Apparently this book is based on the thesis that got her a degree from Oxford. It ought to have already been seen by experts. How on earth did this make it past a thesis supervisor and a defense/viva?

@doodsweet34

having been to college, i found myself surprised that some of the folks teaching were able to get PhD's. It made me realize it's not an insurmountable task

A PhD is a measure of persistence not intelligence.

this is far worse than what happened to shapiro objectively and subjectively. she reacted better, though, because, of course, the only thing that makes shapiro's appearance notable was his reaction

Professors don't scrutinize Masters theses as closely as PhD theses. Masters students are just cash cows.

The similarity between this incident and Shapiro is that both got exposed as pseudo-intellectual Jew frauds.

“From 1985 to 1987, she was a Rhodes Scholar at New College, Oxford,[10] but did not complete her original doctoral thesis. [11]

Wolf returned to Oxford to complete her PhD in 2015, supervised by Dr Stefano-Maria Evangelista. The PhD thesis that she wrote was the basis for her 2019 book Outrages: Sex, Censorship and the Criminalisation of Love.”

Like calls out to like: Clinton hires her to help him secure the woman’s vote, something the president’s wife is usually in charge of. But a lot of women don’t like Hilary, as we would eventually learn the hard way.

she was probably too busy watching 'Desperate Housewives' to do any real research into the foundational argument of her 'book.'
