So, Google's snowflakes are trying to place some naive pseudo-scientific and pseudo-philosophical but popular among other snowflakes compilation of current memes and fancy terminology upon objective reality by silencing a naive but not clueless attempt to remind others about some old truths..
Let's put it straight. There are obvious, hardwired evolutionary specialization among sexes of all species. Sexes are evolutionary innovation to achieve better survival rates (achieved by the process of evolurionary trial and error and natural selection) not some stupid religious nonsense. So, there is no equality in principle, by definition, by design. The notion of equal rights is completely different story, it is social realm - few levels up from underlying biology.
There is not a single doubt that biology dominates and partially determines psychology (the nature part of the Nature and Nurture whole). Biology also dominates sociology - most of human traditions and social norms are deeply grounded in biological differences and specialization - there is nothing to talk about. Animal behavioral patterns, which could be called "traditions of species" are, obviously, determined by biology and environmental factors.
At least few stereotypes produced by various human cultures (products of social formations, partially determined by biology) are reflections to various extend of these real, existing, "material" fundamental differences captured in traditions. Dismissal of all the stereotypes as a category is plain stupidity.
Hipsters and snowflakes who are trying to gain attention by "challenging" objective reality with their naive memes (the ridiculous attempts to redefine what sexes are and what it is for with "third sex" nonsense is an obvious example) at very least raise some brows.
Notice that I am not in the least "conservative", I am principal and scientific. There are evolutional and biological reasons why this or that aspect of sex differences emerged and what is for. Whatever is valid for all species applies to humans too, no matter what liberal arts graduates would say about man's superiority.
Nature forms and dominates, Nurture varies and adapts. There is not a single doubt that equal rights must be given to both sexes (there are only two of them) and equal rights must be protected.
This is where the notion of equality ends. Equality of sexes is a hipster's utter nonsense, not because conservatives think so, or some popular religious text says so, but for straightforward scientific reasons, anatomical and neurobiological. This is so-called objective reality, and opinions and memes of current snowflakes are simply non-applicable.
- craigsmansion 9y ago> There is not a single doubt that biology dominates and partially determines psychology If it "dominates" it's inherent it (at least) "partially determines", reducing your assertion to "There is not a single doubt biology dominates psychology," which is basically untenable, scientifically. > I am principal and scientific. No. No you're not, unless you actually are a principal, but then it has no bearing the matter at hand. You approach is also not very scientific. > There are evolutional and biological reasons why this or that aspect of sex differences emerged and what is for. Whatever is valid for all species applies to humans too, no matter what liberal arts graduates would say about man's superiority. Let's cut your unsound and poorly constructed argument short here: I cede this proposition. That means, for the sake of argument, I will assume it as completely sound and correct. Now, explain to me, in detail, how this (now assumed true) inequality of the sexes leads to one of them being unable to code (or assume various complex technical tasks) as well as the other, purely from biological differences. I'll save you the trouble. You can't, because if you could, you wouldn't be wildly speculating about it online. You'd be writing scientific papers about it. Your larger argument boils down to: -men and women are biologically different, -there are difference between men and women -therefore these difference must be biological It's a fallacy. Scientifically rigorous arguments are not build around fallacies. P.S. principled and scientific minds usually shy away from using laden and denigrating terms in their arguments.
