Janet Bloomfield was born in 1979 or 1980 in northern Ontario, Canada, into a Seventh-day Adventist family, with three brothers.[1] She grew up on a hobby farm in a fundamentalist Christian enclave in rural Alberta, Canada.[2] Her parents divorced when she was a preteen.

Bloomfield went to the University of Western Ontario to study film theory, but after graduation made the conscious decision to become a wife and mother. She continued to the University of Victoria, both to study for a Master of Business Administration, and to find a husband. She married, had her first child, and became a stay-at-home mother. In October 2012[3] she started a blog named JudgyBitch.com with a college friend, writing about how her friends were disdainful of her choice to be a homemaker, and dependent on a man; about how when her parents divorced, her mother was able to win child custody and turn her and her three brothers against their father; and how even her film theory courses taught students to view movies through a feminist filter. Bloomfield's views became aligned with the online Men's rights movement (MRM), and in 2013 some of her work was republished on A Voice for Men.[4]

In 2016, Bloomfield was living in Thunder Bay, Ontario, with her husband, young son, and two daughters. She was the head of social media for A Voice for Men. She supported abortion rights in the first trimester, and women's right to choose whether to work or stay at home (though believing most would choose to be homemakers). However, she opposed women's right to vote, writing that women historically made bad decisions, especially on economics, defense, and immigration, while being immune from conscription and therefore the blood consequences of those decisions. She believed some women could earn the right to vote by having sons, husbands, or serving in the military.[5][6][7] She appeared on Viceland, the BBC, the NBC Today Show and on the syndicated The Doctors.[8][9][10][11] She received numerous death threats, and promised to defend herself with her crossbow.

In January 2019, Bloomfield retired, closing her blog and her Twitter and YouTube accounts; she wrote that she could defend herself, but she could not defend her children who were being stalked and harassed by adults online due to her activism.[12] She allowed many of her articles to be moved to the website FEMoid.[13]
