In cisheteropatriarchal math, division is banned because we strive to unite, not divide each other.
In cisheteropatriarchal math, odd numbers are being bullied and should be eliminated.
In cisheteropatriarchal math, powers should be eliminated because it comes from white supremacy.
In cisheteropatriarchal math, roots should be eliminated because it is cultural appropriation.
In cisheteropatriarchal math, squares should be eliminated because it is shaming.
In cisheteropatriarchal math, acute angles should be eliminated because everyone is beautiful.
In cisheteropatriarchal math, commutative laws equal the playing field in our justice system.
In cisheteropatriarchal math, distributive laws are social justice.
In cisheteropatriarchal math, associative laws are elitist and should be banned.
In cisheteropatriarchal math, limits should be banned because everyone should be encouraged to reach their full potential.
In cisheteropatriarchal math, unions and intersectionality are perfectly fine. Minus is forbidden, however, unless under $950 is taken away from the set.
In cisheteropatriarchal math, inequalities are banned. Nobody is less than or greater than another. Only equal outcomes are acceptable.

I am really getting tired of Heterophobes!
I’m so old I remember when colleges employed mostly smart people.
I just finished watching the Ken Burns Holocaust special on PBS. After showing photograph after photograph of bodies piled outside of gas chambers in the Nazi death camps, one of the narrators then intoned that the philosophy behind the killing is always with us and resides among our neighbors and ordinary Americans today. The scenes and the narration then shift to anti-illegal immigrant protests in this country, the Charlottesville protest march, and, of course, the January 6 “insurrection.” Ann Coulter is likened to a Nazi propagandist spewing anti-immigrant bias.
So, Americans protesting the open border and uncontrolled, illegal immigration are modern-day Nazis? I would think some Jewish groups would object to this comparison to the Holocaust and Nazi ideology.
And why do American taxpayers continue to have to support the obvious anti-Conservative, anti-Republican bias that dominates PBS documentaries like this and the drivel on Frontline? I object to being forced to hand over my hard-earned taxes to support left-wing, anti-American propaganda by Ken Burns and his ilk. When are Republicans going to pull the plug on PBS taxpayer support?
math a ‘white, cisheteropatriarchal space,’ = MATH IS HARD!
This confuses me a bit. Circa 1983 in pharmacy school PharmaKinetics was a bitch course. It was simply, chemistry, math, biological physiology and calculus all rolled into one.
Those of color that were accepted to pharmacy also did well. The chem, physics, math and biological courses in pre pharmacy eliminated those that could not make it in pharmacy school.
Once in pharmacy school the graduation rate was very high. Those that could not make it were already eliminated by the chem and the other sciences.
In my graduating class only three did not make it. Two dropped out due to personal reasons. They both were quite capable of pharmacy school. Oddly the third was quite brilliant. He took a toxicology course and loved it and changed his major. I also considered doing so myself. Toxicology is fun.
I’ve heard of this guy, Leyva.
Ask him if he wants to go up in a space shuttle designed by people that are not the best engineers and designers.
Ask him.
“An education professor delivered a lecture in early January at a major mathematician meeting that described college math as “white” and “cisheteropatriarchal.””
...and a bunch here think that Putin is the biggest threat to America. Go figure.
I just call them “normal people.”
Education majors are statistically the lowest scorers on the SATs and enjoy the least rigorous curriculum on campus.
It shows.
Well, blacks weren’t “First in Flight”, were they?
