“Is E = mc^2 a sexist equation? Perhaps it is. Let us make the hypothesis that it is insofar as it privileges the speed of light over other speeds that are vitally necessary to us. What seems to me to indicate the possibly sexed nature of the equation is not directly its use by nuclear weapons, rather it is having privileged what goes the fastest….”
Here we see that the concept of “privilege” used by
feminists and race-marxists does not refer to individual persons but rather to
the inequality in the sense that any understandings of differences in degree or
quality denotes the presence of an ideologically contemptible “inequality.”

(born 1932 in Belgium) is a Belgian feminist, philosopher, linguist,

One (1977). [Wikipedia]

This post is included in the Misandric Fixation section,
even though it does not so much deal with obsessive hostility towards males and
maleness per se, but rather exemplifies the irrationality of the mindset that
promotes the current race/class/gender Marxist mindset that calls for radical
social engineering to be implemented by totalitarian measures.
It might be amusing to look at what the author of the
offending equation, Albert Einstein, had to say about the relations between
the sexes in the United Stated, as he perceived them during his first visit to
that country.
