Actually ... I think he’s technically just a fruit. They removed the nuts.

“Graham Chapman” was the first thing that came to my mind, too.

English Departments no longer do much teaching of English literature. An awful lot of it is what is commonly called “gender bending.” Women in the novel, women writers, the evil crimes of dead white male writers, the postmodernist significance of race, class, and gender, and so forth.

Really a shame. I think most of them are losing students, since any normal person would want to take an English course because they enjoy reading poems, plays, or novels and want to know more about them.

So, now it’s turning from attempted mutilation of student minds to self mutilation, literally.

It is important to note that Connell coined the term “hegemonic masculinity,” a destructive form of masculinity inferred to thrive on dominance and rooted in white, married, heterosexual male culture. This model was subsequently generalized to the male population by feminists, with the same biased perspectives, and used in efforts to deconstruct masculinity and reshape it to conform to feminist ideological ideals, most of which are demonstrably anti-male, anti-marriage, anti-heterosexual, and in some cases, anti-white.

There were equally elaborate treatments of phrenology, alchemy, and Aryan Science. And the people who carved academic careers out within them were just as earnest.

He is to men’s studies what Darwin was to the study of evolution.

This "individual" was the expert in his field, and his work was apparently accepted as such.

In the end, his work was apparently based on an extremely skewed view of masculinity.

How much public (school) policy was based on this individuals work?

How many sociologists based their views on his work?

Methinks he has done much damage...

Cue Lou Reed's "Walk On The Wild Side." ;)

Holly came from Miami, F.L.A.
Hitch-hiked her way across the USA
Plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her legs and then he was a she

100 years ago he would have been put straight in the loony bin.

Not me. First I ever heard of such a critter is this article. I do recall the amusing book Real Men don’t eat Quiche and a similar one called The Manly Handbook. Great laughs in both but I guess that is as far as I got on the topic.

“Well, castration is just testicle-removal.”

JUST?!?!?

He was a feminism expert in Women’s Studies trapped in a masculinities expert in Men’s Studies body.

It is amazing how much power we have given the mentally ill in our society.

After we get the money stuff straightened out we are really going to need to work on marginalizing these nuts and their nutty ideas.

[cradle of freedom]

This begs the question, are there any colleges that are not mental institutions? Seriously, what are some healthy universities and colleges?

[cradle of freedom]

The money stuff has a lot to do with this madness, since it appears that mad people have sought the positions of power in order to promote their own favorite forms of madness. When the crazy get into positions of power they can get their hands on funding which then goes directly toward funding more insanity. All of these leftist aberrations would not be so prevalent in society if they were not being well funded by our tax dollars and tax exempt foundation money.

Men make really ugly women.

This is an excellent commentary on how pathetic current “intellectuals” have become.

Agreed. On both counts!

[POWERSBOOTHEFAN]

I will never understand how a man could have his penis removed.If that is not a sign of mental illness I don’t know what is.

I’m 33 and totally infatuated with a man who is 64!I just dig that salt-and-pepper hair.
