Q: “When will women be human? When?” asked feminist legal theorist, Catharine A. MacKinnon, in a 1999 essay.
A: When Truth, Productive and Accumulative, and Eugenic, take precedence over Approval, Consumption and Dysgenia.
WHY MISOGYNY? Presumption: Why do women confuse rejection, disapproval, restraint from ir-reciprocity with emotional disapproval (hate)? Why do women not argue truth or falsehood, reciprocity vs reciprocity? Why do women engage in endless conflict by Undermining … vs Exchange?
Why do women consider emotions a cost? Example: “These asymmetrical moral support relations may be instantiated in many different ways” …Asymmetrical accumulation of cellular damage may be instantiated in many different ways. That’s why men die earlier. How are they equivalent?
“… serves to police and enforce these social roles…” Or serves to constrain female hyperconsumption,hypergamy, undermining, and involuntary transfer of resources from males through preservation of reciprocity (exchanges).
Men = Material Economics,Physics, Constraint (Reals)
Women = Emotional Economics, Manipulation, Consumption (feels).
“M:Stress over failing to advance” versus “F:Fear of being left behind”.
Kate: study physics, economics, cognitive science, and developmental biology emphasizing gender and class differences. Then study the differences in mental illness, anti-social behavior, and conflict between men and women instead of philosophy: the language of sophism and deceit.
What does Moral mean? It can only mean reciprocity (voluntary exchange) within limits of proportionality (defection). Normative morals vary because reciprocal traditions vary. Personal moral bias is just a demonstration of Class, Gender, Gender Expression and Sexual Market Value.
Envy, Revolt against Nature. Demand for greater gains for less contributions. Yes. But the west advanced beyond the rest by legal sovereignty, reciprocity, truth before face, judgement by jury, and resulting markets in all aspects of life – domesticating (Eugenics) the worst.
Our success that made women’s ‘liberation’ from household chores, and productive enough to hire substitute mothers, was the product of 1500+years of eugenics, as much as it was our strange male obsession with truth reciprocity and institutions of continuous competition.
—“It also emerges that the failure to recognize women as human”– No, just that women are unequal to men in the foundations of european successes: truth, reciprocity, duty, markets, and meritocracy, and so far have demanded concessions in every aspect of life to accommodate.
I mean, this is another use of Female Gossiping, Shaming, Ridiculing, Moralizing, Psychologizing, Suggestion, Obscurantism, Sophism and Critique (straw manning) completely ignoring both truth vs falsehood and the necessity of cooperative exchange vs gender specific ideals.
So in other words, this book demonstrates the second Abrahamic (sophomoric) attempt to undermine western civlization: Monotheism in the old world, then Marxism, Feminism, Postmodernism, and ‘Denialism’ now – more embarrassing by far than pretense of religious dogma.
If you can’t make a moral argument in economic terms either you lack the intellectual ability or you are engaging in some for of fraud by deceit. This is yet another book doing the latter. And then feminists wonder why men are losing patience with the experiment of the franchise.
I am aware that it’s an uneven contest but I’ll happily debate anyone intellectually honest: Women are excessively privileged, and failing to learn, just like all other peoples have failed to learn, from the lessons of european achievement in the ancient and modern world: Trade.Updated Oct 15, 2019, 6:04 PM
