The End of Male Supremacy

The End of Male Supremacy By Melvin Konner

From the Chronicle of Higher Education:

Quote:Quote:

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.

Do these differences account for all the ways women and men differ? No. Are all men one way and all women another? Also no. But none of those considerations seriously impede my argument or deflect its key conclusion: Women are superior in most ways that matter now.

When I see articles like this in main stream publications, I wonder if we're getting to a point where feminists are simply dropping any pretense of "equality".

The author of this article is a "man", and I use that term loosely, who puts women so high up on a pedestal that he must need binoculars to see them:

Quote:Quote:

And no, I do not mean what was meant by patronizing men who said this in the past — that women are lofty, tender, spiritual creatures. I mean something like the opposite of that. I mean that women are fundamentally pragmatic as well as caring, cooperative as well as competitive, skilled in getting their own egos out of the way, deft in managing people without putting them on the defensive, builders not destroyers. Above all, I mean that women can carry on the business of a complex world in ways that are more focused, efficient, deliberate, and constructive than men’s because women are not frequently distracted by impulses and moods that, sometimes indirectly, lead to sex and violence. Women are more reluctant participants in both. And if they are drawn into wars, these will be wars of necessity, not of choice, founded on rational considerations, not on a clash of egos escalating out of control.

The gushing about the supposed moral superiority of women goes on and on...

Quote:Quote:

In addition to women’s superiority in judgment, their trustworthiness, reliability, fairness, working and playing well with others, relative freedom from distracting sexual impulses, and lower levels of prejudice, bigotry, and violence, they live longer, have lower mortality at all ages, are more resistant to most categories of disease, and are much less likely to suffer brain disorders that lead to disruptive and even destructive behavior. And, of course, they can produce new life from their own bodies, to which men add only the tiniest biological contribution — and one that soon could be done without.

The author of this article pathologizes being a man, literally:

Quote:Quote:

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.


To call being male a syndrome is not an arbitrary judgment. It is based on evolution, physiology, development, and susceptibility to disease.

And for those of you who have sons, he makes their socioeconomic future sounds pretty bleak:

Quote:Quote:

Girls and women in the United States do better in school than boys and men. The original gender gap has been almost completely reversed. The majority of young people now graduating from high school, entering college, and finishing college are female, and this inevitably means more women leaders.

In the 21st century, and especially since 2008, men’s job losses and overall unemployment have been much higher than those of women. According to the National Women’s Law Center, from the beginning of the recovery to July 2013, American women regained almost 95 percent of their lost jobs while men regained only 65 percent. In the same time period, women’s unemployment declined from 7.6 to 6.5 percent and men’s from 9.9 to 7.0 percent.

Thankfully though, with the rise of women, utopia is just around the corner:

Quote:Quote:

So if you’re wondering what the future holds, these and other indicators give us a crystal ball: As women gain in influence, all else being equal, the world will become more democratic, more socially compassionate, more equal, less discriminatory, less sexually casual, and less pornographic.

Doesn't surprise me the article was written by a man. We're our own worst enemy.

All of his (at best naive at worst deliberately misleading) arguments are refuted by the decreased level of testosterone we see in "modern" men.

What a buffoon.

This part is actually a complete fiction:

In conclusion pseudointellectual garbage. At some point one of his teachers told him he was smart and they were lying.

If you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is.

Unfortunately, he is now a teacher himself, which means he gets to shape and influence the views and beliefs of the students who pass through his courses. The author of the article is a Professor of Anthropology at Emory University.

By calling men "birth defects," he's also calling African-American men "birth defects."

Therefore he is engaging in hate speech.

Perhaps one of you Return of Kings writers would like to do a nice article on professor Melvin Konner at Emery University and how he just invented a fancy, intellectual way of saying the word N*GGER.

You all might laugh and think I'm engaging in hyperbole. But to an insecure 19-year-old black (or even ethnic) boy entering college this is, in fact, what he will get from the article emotionally.

We might have enough Red Pill knowledge to dismiss this article. A lot of younger guys don't. Years ago, men would help shape boys and mold them into the new men who would help society progress. This man is doing the opposite. It's indicative of the educational system in this country, which seeks to destroy boys. I say "Let's get him."

I got banned once for saying this but as soon as I checked the subject of this article I thought - he must be Jewish - and so he is.

I must, however, make clear what I mean by Jewish; I mean neither a race nor a people nor a recognised creed. I think of it as a tendency of the mind, as a psychological constitution which is a possibility for all mankind, but which has become actual in the most conspicuous fashion only amongst the Jews. Antisemitism itself will confirm my point of view.

Now go ban me again.

Melvin clearly has a notch count <5...probably <3

1 notch...I popped the pill
2-5...I was observing the truths
6-10...The truths sank into my psyche
11-20...My behaviors changed to where the truths were increasingly reflected in my behavior
At 20+...I could observe the truths within myself and the girls with whom I interacted

They aren't superior.

Anthropologists are the kind of people who need third grade level mathematics spelled out for them:
Quote:Quote:

Konner, M.J. Relations among infants and juveniles in comparative perspective, page 12.
I wouldn't take anything "academic" said by someone like that too seriously.

The man has achieved the fame he has today (and he is famous by academic standards) by rewriting anecdotal evidence in academic words in a field where anecdote is accepted as fact.

So what kind of place hires a guy like this?

The first line on the main page of the math and computer science department page at Emory:
Quote:Quote:

http://www.mathcs.emory.edu/
Mathematics and computer science are disciplines central to both the liberal arts curriculum and to research endeavors in the natural and social sciences.

It is a hug box for lefists. In their world, mathematics exists to serve liberal arts and social sciences, both of which are made up in the monster-in-the-closet meaning of the word.

If you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is.

If you were to look up "Male simp facial expression" this would be it. It's also the author.

[Image: Konner_Biodesignweb.jpg]

We always talk about how the fatter a chick is, the more likely it is she's a feminist. Women are drawn to feminism because nature gives attractive girls an unfair advantage, and they need cultural Marxism and the state to level the playing field.

Feminists have never known what it's like to be a feminine woman and enjoy the benefits of being a woman.

It's the same with simps like this. He simply hasn't known the joys of being a masculine guy, so he feels the need to tear the whole thing down. As AB would say, it's completely anti-life. His goal is to tear down and destroy the individual and replace it with the System. The doublethink System that tells us women are superior, that men are a aberration.

If we repeat it enough, it becomes the Truth:

WAR IS PEACE
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH

"...so I gave her an STD, and she STILL wanted to bang me."

Within a few decades...when society collapses into armed gangs...this guy will be chased down and have his brains blown out by "inferior" males (whose broken chromosomes are highly optimized for making war and carrying weapons).

His arguments will be trampled into the mud, as if he had never existed.
