Dr Jordan Peterson hits back at feminist over 'just a man in a waistcoat' jibe

Feminist author Caitlin Moran said during a podcast that Dr Jordan Peterson is “not the smartest guy in the world” and described him as “just a man in a waistcoat”.

The author also claimed that she could “demolish” a great deal of the logic that Dr Peterson presents in his book, 12 Rules for Life.

Dr Jordan Peterson and his daughter Mikhaila have hit back at the author for her comments.

“She sounds like she’d be fun at a party,” Mikhaila Peterson said.

Dr Peterson responded saying, “that’s why you don’t cast pearls before swine”.

Caitlin says she could easily destroy his arguments and then proceeds to do nothing but make ad hominem attacks. I didn't hear her refute anything.

Never heard of Caitlin Moron but I’m sure she’s a legend in her own mind

Jordan Peterson _does_ say a lot of things your mother would say, like, "Make your bed, " but the truth is these are things people _need_ to hear but nobody is telling them.

You can’t be that arrogant and then hope to learn anything. Well said

[nativecompanion]

He smoothly called the feminist a pig.

[Compassiron]

I don’t understand why you would want to demolish the body of work of a man who millions say have helped them

[Chad_Max]

When they can't attack your arguments, they attack you personally. This is an old game, she's not that smart...

[talongreenlee]

The fact that she doesn’t understand what he’s saying and assumes he’s delusional rather than assume she just doesn’t get it tells you everything you need to know. She’s an absolute narcissist.

People always think they "demolish" Peterson, when they are talking to themselves in the shower. It's quite different to actually do it in person, and people have tried for years now.

Evil screams in your face in a loud voice, while a person speaking the truth never raises their voice, and people pushing their warped, evil agendas will always detest, hate, vilify and criminalise the people speaking the truth. JP is a light of truth in evil times and so draws loud screams and vilification. God bless this man 🙏

They always bring up the lobster, and every time I'm embarrassed for them 😂 Anyone with a brain who's read the book understands what he was saying in that chapter

[grocnrollgrocnroll]

I love the way Jordan looks at his daughter. His love for his daughter is obvious and wonderful.

[Fire.Effect]

They are all staunch feminists until there is Russians to kill or a spider in the sh+tter

[nonshatter]

That's a very honest opinion from Mikhaila, not wanting to feel vulnerable from not having enough money. It's better than the sanctimonious 'money doesn't matter' lies I hear all the time.

"I don't even think they are capable of learning"... "That's why you don't throw pearls before swine dear". Such wisdom. And for those of us who know where wisdom comes from, I say *more power to them and those in their orbit, * they are inspirational.

That lady sounds like an insecure little guy saying “I could totally beat up John Cena” while watching a movie with his girlfriend 😂

Jordan Peterson is one of the most well intentioned people, and I hope more people would listen to his solid logic on many issues. Unfortunately, the ones that need to hear him out the most, think they know everything already.

Caitlin, you can't even write a book selling more than 1% of "12 Rules of Life". 🤣🤣🤣

Jordon's daughter exudes a sense of her "grounded self" calm logical and thoughtful. a credit to her father.
