QuoteMy worst professor, by far, was my Sociology professor (my experiences with the Women"s Studies department were actually quite positive). She had really swallowed the feminist Kool-Aid. This woman made outrageously false statements on a daily basis. I compiled them for your amusement.
There is no evidence for the g-spot. It was all invented to make women think they needed a man to get an orgasm.
While some scientists doubt the existence of the g-spot, the debate is far from settled. A quick google search reveals that there is at least some evidence for it.
Larry Summers claimed that women have less math and science ability, on average, than men.
Actually, he said that men"s math and science skill has a larger standard deviation than women"s (while there are more men on high end of the bell curve than women, there are also more men on the low end). My professor unironically "refuted" Summers by pointing out how most retarded children are male.
The average pregnancy lasts 40 weeks.
40 weeks is the typical amount of time between a woman"s last period and childbirth. But the time between conception and childbirth is usually only 38 weeks.
40 weeks is 10 months.
There are 30.4 days in the average month, so 40 weeks is only 9.2 months.
Therefore, pregnancy lasts 10 months.
Deduced from the previous misconceptions. In fact, pregnancy lasts about 8 and 3/4 months.
A "medical journal" (she couldn"t name the source) once reported that women have "incorrect" heart attacks
A search of the library"s databases yielded no results.
Dukes v Wal-Mart was a 6-3 Supreme Court decision in which all the men on the court voted in favor of Wal-Mart, and all the women voted for Dukes.
In fact, it was a unanimous decision. Justices both male and female agreed that the sex discrimination lawsuit was bogus.
No healthy woman fantasizes about rape.
I know several.
It is common for health insurance companies to cover Viagra, but not birth control.
Debunked here.
6 years is “nothing” in the career world. A woman who drops out of the corporate world for six years to raise her kids should expect to paid as much as a woman who spent those 6 years building her career.
But student who arrives six seconds late to class loses participation points.
And finally: a feminist math problem!
In 2011, a man gets paid $50k per year while a woman only gets $40k. So the woman is paid 80% of the man"s salary (40k/50k). In 2012, they both get a 10% raise. The man is now paid $55k per year, while the woman is paid $44k. How much money will the woman make in 2012, as a percentage of the man"s 2012 income (44k/55k)?
If you guessed 80%, you pass sixth-grade math and fail college sociology.
My sociology class was like a tour of the sausage factory. It"s a lot harder to respect the product once you see how it"s made.

Ha these are great! I once had a women"s studies professor who tried to argue women should "take it easy" while they have their periods; don"t go to class, don"t go to work, etc. She tried to say some health problems actually stem from women not "getting a break" while they"re on their periods. This was when I still bought into some of the more radical feminist doctrine, but even I had a reallllly hard time with that one…
Lol Olive, I"m surprised she didn"t consider that patronizing!
One more lie I forgot to include:
If a man orders a burrito at Chipotle, he"ll get more rice and meat than a woman will.
Now I"ve never worked at Chipotle, but I did spend a lot of time in the food service industry. We did not give a flying fuck about the gender of our customers. All we cared about was keeping our boss happy and getting that minimum-wage paycheck. We were told exactly how large a portion to give each customers, and we weren"t about to piss off our boss just to maintain a sexist conspiracy.
Haha I know right? That one"s up there with the girls in Africa who can"t go to school when they"re on their periods (though for different reasons of course). She was really new-agey and hippie-ish, really into Native American stuff. But damn, disagree with her and she would call you out. So much for "free thought."
Ha your Chipotle statement cracks me up. That one just sounds like she pulled it out of her butt. Like saying "there are more sheets of toilet paper in the toilet paper rolls men buy than the ones women buy."
Oh I pretty much know the g-spot exists, but how intense the feelings it generates seems to vary widely between women. It"s on the upper wall of the vagina about three inches in. The theory and there"s some evidence for this, is that a structure there which is connected to the clitoris, and may be sort of a female vestigial (that"s not quite the right word, as I"ll explain) penis.
What I mean by the last is that consider why men have nipples, but no breasts (except in fatsos). They"re without function in men. Basically they do because it took less genetic work for human evolution to just downsize men"s breasts to nothing (for sexual dimophism signalling) than to get rid of his nipples. Human evo didn"t have to go that far to make men look masculine to women. All this work was done by evolution when we were still monkeys of course, or before.
Summers was entirely right on that and on everything else he said in that speech that pissed women off. Why he didn"t subsequently cite the research is a mystery to me, the wenie. And he still got fired.
There"s hard psychometric science on that. Steven Pinker has referred to it, I think in The Blank Slate, but somewhere I"m sure.
40 weeks is the typical amount of time between a woman"s last period and childbirth. But the time between conception and childbirth is usually only 38 weeks.
It varies from 38 to 41 weeks, though these days American and I"d imagine European doctors tend to induce by the 40th week, since there are significant dangers to the woman and child as well if it goes beyond 40 weeks.
"No healthy woman fantasizes about rape."
I know several.
The leftist and especially feminist trick on that is to respond with "see, I told you. They were obviously not healthy."
The learned this from communism, literally. Same thing with "false consciousness", which is really just a variation, as well as "remains brainwashed by the Patriarchy" when just about all the brainwashing going on is feminist and leftist in our schools, universities and entertainment media.

Heh. Some feminists also believe women who make the conscious decision to stay home and care for their husbands and children are not "healthy". I don"t know who said it right now, but I could find the exact quote and women who said this if anyone is interested. If it wasn"t so depressing it would be comical.
The G-spot can be reached with fingers, so how would it make women need men anyway? I think it may be used to emphasize not that women need men sexually, but to say that they are not useless. As in "you can achieve orgasm with penetrative sex", so you"re not just lying there waiting for him to finish. Although I think the G spot is real and what your teacher said was nonsense, I can understand it if sexologists found a need to over-emphasize the G spot, as it was probably a let-down to learn about the clitoris for most men (if they had only ever done penetrative sex, the women they"d been with have most likely been faking it). But the G spot isn"t all that. Firstly, not everyone gets pleasure from it. Secondly, it cannot compare with the clitoris. So calm down the party.
The majority of women can only orgasm from clitoral stimulation. Sexual pleasure centers don"t shift along with political movements, as much as some would like to believe they do.

Like, I was totally going in here to explain the legitimate interpretations of this stuff, but that"s just baaaaad. God save us all from radfems with tenure.
In general, I"ve found that gender studies professors with a background in queer theory or masculinity studies are usually good. Radical feminism can go either way depending. Run screaming from anyone whose CV mentions psychoanalysis or Freud.

Wow, how did you guess? She spent three lessons discussing psychoanalysis. Her favorite psychoanalytic theory was that men are jealous of women"s "biological creativity" (pregnancy) and that drives them to be creative in other ways (painting, writing). Female artists are oppressed because men want to have a monopoly on artistic creativity, in order to compensate for their inability to give birth. Ya, rly.
I knew because, God help me, I"ve read Cixous and Paglia, and after a few "what the FUCK, men do not have more creative ability because they can PEE STANDING UP" it ends up getting burned into your brain. Even the otherwise sensible Simone de Beauvoir, whose works I refer to often, went crazy as soon as Freud came into the picture. He"s not just insane himself but a cause of insanity in other people.

LOL!! Is that the opposite of Freud"s penis envy?

I once heard a professor say that it"s not Freud"s theories that make his writing so valuable, it"s his sheer persuasiveness. It"s amazingly true. I read Moses and Monotheism, and by the end I was like "OMG he"s so right, there were two Moses"s and the Priestly writers definitely deliberately made one Moses out of the two." Ha, he hardly gives you any solid evidence, but it"s amazing how readable his works are… they just completely draw you in.
