Because apparently I have to. I don’t think that men are superior to women or women are superior to men. I think that people regardless of whether they have penis or vagina, or gender expression, are all clueless upright apes.

I think that calling for a superior anything is akin to creating some bullshit physiognomic system that pretends that a given group can make shit that doesn’t somehow stinks. I think that such Ideologies of Utopian Consequentialism, which is what this amounts to, are inherently flawed and prone to giving pretext to atrocity. I don’t that just because a woman is in charge that somehow society will be improved from systemic violence. There were female slave-holders in the Confederate South, and women who sent Jews to the Gas Chambers in Nazi Germany.

I think that a better society is created when we address issues of Systemic Injustice rather than pretend that a given group is going to be some messianic polity that will guide society to a stable perfection as an end of history.
