  2. Gender inequality

Gender inequality

  • Inequality between the sexes
  • Inequality between men and women
  • Inherent sex differences
  • Misguided social construction of gender
  • Sexual inequality
  • Gender gap

Claim

Study of differences between the sexes should be terminated because such study inherently perpetuates sexual inequality.

Counter-claim

There is an increasingly sophisticated body of knowledge on inherent sex differences, whether these are rooted in biology (hormonal role in aggression and nurturing behaviour; differences in brain structure) universal social necessity, or both. If, in the light of such studies, men and women are inherently different, then traditional society, in its broad lines, is natural. The claim that women are oppressed then evaporates and feminism stands revealed as an absurdity.
