Being Male "Is A Birth Defect"
Source: chronicle.com
Editor’s Note: This article from “The Chronicle of Higher Education” is a must read. The blatant hatred expressed towards men is astonishing. The story is called “The End of Male Supremacy,” the author is a self-hating man by the name of Melvin Konner. From a biological perspective the article is not only horribly inaccurate, it is sheer lunacy. It’s skewed in the worst way possible, not only to express unmitigated hatred towards men but designed to further drive a wedge between men and women, trying to polarize them on a scientific basis. From historical perspective, it’s completely lacking the understanding how the different sexes has been key for cooperation and survival. It’s drivel. It’s astonishing that this kind of garbage can pass in a magazine of “Higher Education,” but there you have it. It’s further evidence that Cultural Marxism permeates every level within academia – in order to drive women against men, primarily in the West, where these publications are read. You can read it for yourself here, but here are the most exciting highlights from the article:
There is a birth defect that is surprisingly common, affecting a key pair of chromosomes. In the normal condition the two look the same, but in this disorder one is shrunken beyond recognition. The result is shortened life span, higher mortality at all ages, an inability to reproduce, premature hair loss, and brain defects variously resulting in attention deficit, hyperactivity, conduct disorder, hypersexuality, and an enormous excess of both outward and self-directed aggression. The main mechanism is androgen poisoning. I call it the X-chromosome deficiency syndrome, and a stunning 49 percent of the human species is affected.
It is also called maleness.

Women are not equal to men; they are superior in many ways, and in most ways that will count in the future. It is not just a matter of culture or upbringing. It is a matter of chromosomes, genes, hormones, and nerve circuits. It is not mainly because of how experience shapes women, but because of intrinsic differences in the body and the brain.

As a man, I would like my kind to stick around and stay useful. I also have it on pretty good authority that most women would not like to get rid of men.

Extreme forms of male domination are an anomaly in our history — a long-lasting one but nevertheless temporary. In terms of the relationship between the sexes, we are recovering equality, not inventing it.

To call being male a syndrome is not an arbitrary judgment. It is based on evolution, physiology, development, and susceptibility to disease. Once, all of our ancestors could reproduce from their own bodies; we were all basically female. When biologists ask why sex evolved, they are not asking rhetorically — the fact that sex feels good was a nice addition. What they are asking is: Why did those self-sufficient females invent males? It had to be a very big reason, since they were bringing in a whole new cast of characters who took up space and ate their fill, but could not themselves realize the goal of evolution: creating new life.

Men being what they are, women have always had to struggle for equality, even in the small hunter-gatherer bands from which we evolved. Yet it got much worse. With the rise of what we like to call civilization, men’s superior muscle fostered a vast military, economic, and political conspiracy, enabling them to exclude women from leading roles.

Hanna Rosin’s book The End of Men (2012) made the case that among younger people the replacement of men by women is well under way.
Even in the most sexist societies, women and girls form a fundamentally subversive group that will undermine age-old male conceit.
