About

Witches, like Joan Jett, famously have a bad reputation. It's an ill-founded reputation, of course, and basically a lingering vestige of 700-year-old male terrors run amok in the face of women who dared behave in manners that transgressed a very narrow conception of womanhood. Those same male terrors, mercifully, tend not to end in water torture and stake burnings nowadays. Witches still get a rough ride, though, be they actual witches (who do exist and, for the record, tend to be far more accepting and open-minded folk than people who sit around all day fretting about witches) or simply women who get tagged as "witches" or some variant thereof because -- you got it -- they dare behave in manners that transgress a very narrow conception of womanhood. This is Magneta Lane.
