we were all so sure that Fritz was horrible about MT, but it seems like at this point at least that primary sources don't seem to have anything super negative about her yet, it was just in Catt's memoirs??
selenak had a quote about "she must stink of diapers" back when the subject first came up, but I don't know what the source on that is, and I haven't run across it myself, even in secondary sources. It's not in Catt, though.
There's also Lehndorff's (I think?) account of Fritz holding forth to a captive audience on how awful women in general are and how they smell bad, and everyone fleeing as soon as dinner was over. Which selenak tells me was not unique to Fritz as gay man holding forth on "Women: why they suck."
lolololol Zimmerman would totally be the fic-writer who woobifies all the villains :D
