Actually I expected you to be flustered by "authentic anthropology", but perhaps I over-estimated you.

Gender-bending is a component of the agenda for creating the New Man -- an artificial contrivance sold with the promise of freedom, but radically sundered from the liberating truth of what man is. It's an agenda that (paradoxically) strips man of the genuine selfhood that's realised in the encounter between persons. The New Man has no soul and enjoys a purely biological existence purely for his own sake. He is emptied of all historical and cultural memory, and his very body, designed for nuptial union and life, is stripped of semiotic significance.

Your evident enthusiasm for the enterprise makes plain that its you who's the propagandist.

You should have studied propaganda more and anthro less. Although, it's a fairly advanced technique to accuse someone of the behavior they are criticizing and ofor which they have listed numerous examples. Advanced, but transparent.

Do we detect just a trace of marcuseanism?
