 Millie Tant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Millie is a lesbian (except for when the punchline requires her to secretly be heterosexual), and insists on referring to other women as "fellow lesbians", regardless of their actual orientation.
A caricature of the radical feminist mentality, Millie is portrayed as not being particularly interested in empowering other women, but only in expressing her infinite hatred of men, whom she often refers to as either "potential rapists" or just "rapists".
At the end of each comic strip, Millie Tant invariably forgets her feminist stance and is shown to be a hypocrite.

 Disinformation
She was the stereotype of the Millie Tant feminist made flesh - overweight, hairy, un-made-up, wearing old denim dungarees and DMs or bad trainers - and thus a target for ridicule.
The fact that she presented herself as she was - no hair dyes or conditioner, no time-consuming waxing or plucking or shaving or slimming or fashion - was rare and deeply threatening; in a culture where women's appearance has become ever more defining, Dworkin came to represent the opposite of what women want to be.

 The University of Glasgow :: Newsletter 234 January 2002 - Opinion
Of course, as a union member Millie will be afforded the full panoply of support in the event that she is declared redundant, and woe betide any management that goes down that route (This full support will be provided when her back subscriptions for the last few millennia are paid to the GAUT Treasurer).
Further to recent correspondence in the newspapers regarding the potential redundancy of Millie the dinosaur, I think "the management" of this esteemed institution should be made aware that Millie is, in fact, a member of GAUT.
In the end, however, she chose the AUT as we already had experience in defending members with antediluvian attitudes, and indeed still did have some thick- skinned, horny(!) and crusty old members who could debate the best of us into extinction.

 Sid the Sexist - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He attempts hypnosis on a nun, who kicks him in the balls; buys another pheremone spray (Pig Piss) which only attracts a blind woman's guide dog to bite his genitalia; and makes a desperate approach to fat, bald, ugly uber-feminist Millie Tant, who repays him with yet another vicious kick to the nuts.
The final frame has Sid begging his mother for £1000 to pay off the grinning Baz...
Making a £1000 bet with his friend Baz that he can seduce a woman within a week.

Based on the 1967 Oscar-winning film starring Julie Andrews, Thoroughly Modern Millie is the tale of a young Kansas girl who arrives in Manhattan at the height of the jazz age.
When Millie finishes after its Edinburgh run she intends to take a break from work, although first she will make her debut as a director, working with Andy Gray on a Fringe production of Ben Steiner's one-man show A Limited Run.
Playing opposite Grace Kennedy, who reprises her West End role of Muzzy Van Hossmere, and Donna Steele, who plays the formidable Millie Dillmount, it is a part Smith is relishing, and she confesses: "I love playing the baddie because normally I play the goodie and this is much more fun.

 CFE take 17 seats on UCD SU council - National Miscellaneous - Indymedia Ireland
The comic Viz has a character called Millie Tant who essentially is a characture of seperatist feminism.
You call yourself 'Millie Tant' but you're not a member of SP or SY.
I'm pretty sure whoever is posting as 'Millie Tant' is just winding people up.

 Viz celebrates 25 puerile years
The stars of Viz fly firmly in the face of political correctness -- this is toilet humour at its most lavatories -- with a celebration of the lascivious, licentious and plain filthy.
Millie Tant offers the humourless side of radical feminism.
The Fat Slags never know when enough is enough -- be it cleavage or debauchery -- while Sid The Sexist is every woman’s nightmare.

 Tales of Asia - Soppy - Among the Expats
She was Millie Tant with a lisp and she frightened the living daylights out of Lions.
This gave her, in her own view, the moral ground on every issue concerning the developing world though it did not prevent her from having top of the range Nokia mobile, Pajaro with her own, much abused, driver.
Which was the reason why she was encouraged to visit as often as possible.

 Sir Testimulump #1
In fact Sir Testimulump's girlfriend is not a million miles away from the Viz character, Millie Tant.
Sir Testimulump is similar in both style and content to Viz, albeit a crudely formed manifestation of that comic.
Sir Testimulump himself looks a little like a humanoid Casper and he does have a certain grubby charm even if it is only due to how truly pathetic an individual he is.

 Guardian Unlimited Arts reviews Le Tigre, This Island
In the past, however, their drawback has not been deadly earnestness but an inability to replicate their riotous live shows on disc.
On their third album, major-label cash and beefier production helps New Kicks' stirring anti-war rhetoric and Viz - sadly not a tribute to the comic that featured Le Tigre prototype Millie Tant and Her Radical Conscience, but a paean to lesbian clubs.
A cover of the Pointer Sisters' I'm So Excited hints at a hitherto-unnoticed sense of humour.

 The Observer Food monthly 'I have nothing in common with feminists. They never seem to think that one might enjoy men'
They don't notice men if they behave well, because of course, only women behave well.' All generalised tosh, of course, and I wonder why Lessing bothers to say such things, whether in fact her whole stance might be a huge joke.
It isn't of course, and we just end up bickering amiably back and forth - Lessing making silly, dated references to fishes and bicycle, me bearing an increasing resemblance to Viz comic's Millie Tant.

 Ignorance is Blissna
The present day magazine has cleverly focused on characters that reflect life under New Labour with creations such as the feminist Millie Tant and the new age Modern Parents.
The magazine’s sales now sit closer to 300,000 than the million mark, but that’s not to say that it is only consumed by an ageing, sentimental readership.
There was also appalling sex - The Fat Slags - or the utter failure to get any - Sid the Sexist - along with characters whose existence lampooned politically correct orthodoxy, such as The Modern Parents and Millie Tant.

 Guardian Unlimited Arts special reports Wil Hodgson
He takes the stage in a black T-shirt with the legend Lesbians Have More Fun, a Care Bear figurine dangling from his belt, pink polish on his nails, pink makeup round his eyes, a pink mohican topping his podgy face and stubbly scalp.
He looks a bit like Divine, a little like Leigh Bowery, and a tad like Millie Tant, Viz's cartoon feminist.
Bar the occasional eye-popping rant, he speaks in a low West Country drone.

I have a faint nagging suspicion that Millie Tant (registered Jan 2005) may not be of the female sex after all.
The style of Millie Tant's posts is very familiar along with those of the other recently registered Lizzie Dripping and SillyMoo.
My sincerest apologies to them if I am barking up the wrong tree, as it were, but could this be another ShortandDesperate scenario - it seems to be the in thing

 newcastle stuff May 2002
Inspired by a strip in VIZ featuring Millie Tant protesting outside a club called ‘For Your Thighs Only’, it describes the protesters as T.W.A.T.S. – "Tyne and Wear Action Team Squatters" – a measure of the wit and sophistication of their effort.
The site links to the message board on the real protesters’ site, which has been overrun by perves arguing the toss about the cub’s merits.
However, the club’s supporters have pulled no punches in a parody of that site, called They Have To Whine About It.

 BBC News UK Viz puts on a show
With characters such as the feminist Millie Tant and the hopelessly new age Modern Parents, the Telegraph argues Viz is in its element lampooning Britain under New Labour.
Welcoming the new exhibition, The Daily Telegraph applauds Viz's portraits of "Left-liberal archetypes".
Likening it to the "iconoclastic Toryism of Swift", an editorial says: "Viz offers an honest subversiveness which a conservative newspaper can admire."
