Has anyone heard of the term "Femynye"? My feminist dictionary reports
that it was a midevil term for the kingdom of the Amazons. I have a
short quote from Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, too.
Has anyone hear this term used in any other context?

TESTERIA
>From the Latin testes, "testicles," "balls." Inability to respond
emotionally. Cripling condition found in males, sometimes dangerously
pathological. "Accounts in part for the ability of the male ruling
class to efficiently, calmly, and maturely carry out planetary
catastrophe. Male inventions like war, capitalism, totalitarianism,
industrialism, and other atrocities are only possible if millions of
efficient, calm, mature male people are diligently repressing their
healthy, humyn emotions. Since the turn of the century, over 50 million
humyn beings have been slaughtered in war by psychiatriacally normal
male people." (Juli Loesch)
-from Amazons, Bluestockings and Crones, a feminist dictionary
