Male gaze is a load of crap
Christina Hoff Sommers has a good
piece up on the Left-wing slant in academia.
An excerpt:
The young woman who had invited me to the campus had told me that there was very little intellectual diversity at Haverford and that she hoped my talk would spark some debate. In fact, she and many in the audience were quietly delighted by the exchanges. But two very angry students accused her of having provided "a forum for hate speech."
The pathetic thing is that most
liberals think this kind of behavior is total bullshit, but don't have to the balls to say it. I understand that most "right-thinking" people will find my racial opinions outside of the pale of acceptability. I even understand someone saying that affirmative action is necessary to redress historical grievances. OK, I get all of that. But why the hell don't you open your mouths when some
pudgy mustachioed feminazi silences discourse by declaring all that she disagrees with is "hate speech"?!?!?! I've gotten on liberals for not being hard enough on idiotic Third World
beliefs and holding non-whites to
lower moral standards, but I think it all starts back in the first year Woman's Studies class when a gaggle of bizarro butches takes over the class and turns it into a navel-gazing exercise centered on their own crappy self-esteem.
So liberals, get off our cases for a second, and notice what those to the Left of you are doing to your movement and this country. Understand that there is a great chasm between you and them. You believe in a
regulated market, they don't believe in a market. You believe in equality for women, they believe womyn are just a social construction. You believe in freedom of speech, they believe that certain speech is not speech but violence.
Oh, and if you follow the "beliefs" link, you're rewarded with the story of the return of the "monkey man." Seriously.
Update: If you haven't, read the "monkey man" article, read it! Also, if you're a male person of color, and a bizarro pudge-face with more facial hair than you exclaims their anger at your assertion of patriarchy in their womyn's space, just tell them this:
I feel that your western hegemonic value systems denigrate who I am and perpetuates the system of exploitation initiated by colonialism and perfected in modern capitalism. Look wounded and defiant. Usually in my experience pudge-faces are stupid enough to back off. If you're smart enough you might even be able to seduce their femme she-slave and turn her to heterosexuality and freedom from bondage.
