Yeah, she sounds exactly like the kind of person Lewis envisioned, wanting a world of all neuters. Not to mention no chivalry!

Instead of dealing with Lewis’s arguments, I don’t think she even understood them, let alone tried to refute them. This is typical of the academy today, just assume your position, and try to tar anyone with innuendo who disagrees.

Sexual differences, unlike those of race, are real—and thank God they are! Viva la difference! No one would consider having women in the NFL, and for good reason—only a total freak of nature could ever handle it. Why they assume such a reality doesn’t carry into other areas—and that our physical nature does reflect and give us hints as to are essential and spiritual nature, I just don’t understand.

Even diversity professionals often maintain that differences of race are real as well. Everyone is viewed by them in terms of "group" membership. Notwithstanding this, one might plausibly argue for example that the Inuit are not noted for basketball prowess. Different ethnic groups do often have, on average, different physiological norms. Classical conservatism argues (Locke and Jefferson notwithstanding) that all men are not created equal in terms of ability, but are created equal in terms of their inalienable rights, in their intrinsic value and in God's love.
