BILOXI, MS – In a devastating blow to the feminist movement, a woman identified only as Brenda quietly farted while browsing the cereal aisle at a local Hy-Vee supermarket yesterday afternoon. The incident, which witnesses described as “a barely audible toot,” has sent shockwaves through the world of gender equality.
“This is a dark day for womankind,” declared feminist icon Gloria Steinem in a hastily arranged press conference. “For generations, we’ve fought for the right to be taken seriously, to be seen as equals. And now, with one silent but undeniable fart, Brenda has single-handedly set us back decades.”
Experts are scrambling to understand the full ramifications of Brenda’s intestinal indiscretion. Leading theories include:
- The Fart Heard Round the World: The sound, despite being barely audible, somehow resonated on a metaphysical level, shattering the fragile glass ceiling women have been precariously clinging to.
- The Pervasive Patriarchy Strikes Back: Men, secretly terrified of strong, independent women, used Brenda’s fart as an excuse to regress back into a comfortable misogynistic worldview.
- The Great Digestive Conspiracy: Big Toilet Paper is behind the whole thing, manipulating public perception to drive up sales of odor-eliminating sprays.
Brenda, meanwhile, remains at large. While some have called for her public execution (by way of a particularly aggressive enema), others are urging for a more nuanced approach.
“Perhaps,” mused a renowned gender studies professor, “we can use this as a learning experience. If women are truly equal, then shouldn’t they also have the right to expel intestinal gas without jeopardizing the entire feminist movement?”
Social media has exploded with the hashtag #FartenForFreedom, with women everywhere sharing stories of their own flatulence in a defiant show of solidarity. Whether this will be enough to counter the damage remains to be seen. One thing is certain: the grocery store aisle will never be the same.
