Women are less athletically gifted then men. Feminist go crazy whenever girls try out for a male sport but there isn't much there beyond novelty. It is why no one watches the WNBA, and WMMA is a complete joke etc.

Depends on the sport. Surely women and mens volleyball have a much smaller skill gap than football or basketball.

So what you're saying women will take over the world?

Feminine values and attitudes will replace the obsolete male dominated structure of our culture. Feminized men and women will share power.

please. i don't know what term textbook you're getting this piss from, but you're passing off - at best - a progressive-lefty hypothesis as some sort of quasi-scientific fact. this is just shit that tenured feminists get paid a lot to write about. "obsolete male dominated structure"? really? i still see greed, the pursuit of power, material display, and military/physical might being thrown around as the main agents of world geopolitics. capitalism is basically the male psychology extended out into the world of commerce. stop coming up with this gnomic sounding bollocks you got from some 1970's feminist anthropological study.

Sexless utopia? I suggested no such thing. Lowering male aggression and dominance doesn't desex society at all. If anything it makes it more sexual. And I mean efficiency in terms of sustaining human happiness and flourishing without being at odds with one another and the rest of nature and the cosmos.

i don't really understand where you get this kookie notion of the 'cosmos' from. it's ancient greek. the universe isn't one big calm and unified order. the universe is chaos and contingency. pure meaninglessness. a void, with an arbitrary and dumb spurt of matter streaked across it. our lives here are without purpose. there is nothing sacrosanct about the human individual. we are an intelligent beast that has evolved an advantage - through fierce competition and much, much violence - an advantage that grants us the luxury to sit back and ponder. but when you crack out this "flourishing without being at odds with one another and the rest of nature" shit, you spout dumb new age bullshit. nature is fundamentally made up of things 'at odds' with one another. it's a delicate balance, but a balance attained by attrition and violence. not bunnies hugging one another and crocodile smiles. as for the 'cosmos' - just fucking drop it. we've moved on a little from the pre-socratics.

you have this weird syncretic, hybrid, new-age-meets-internet-plus-weed worldview, which is just kinda ridiculous, when you get all portentous, anyway.

lol from what i see it looks like you can't handle Sup Mind's knowledge.

Uzique is asking why he's using mixed systems of thought, and arguing that the basal assumption that human nature is capable of being fully "dominant" or..."feminine values" (I don't actually know Sup's word because it doesn't make sense).

Sup never defines his terms. We have no idea what he is doing. Seems to me he is arguing that humans can function within a dualistic system (having two distinct 'polar opposites'), which is some seriously outdated thinking. This is what Uzique is arguing in mentioning the Greek origins of the words he uses.

Sup's response is "well, we can't even know if I'm right or you're right, so why pass judgment", to which Uzique is (I think) saying, "why the hell is the impetus with us to produce that answer, you're the one making the claims."

So, in short, I think Uzique knows exactly what the fuck is going on.

Question for Sup is: how do you implement the new system?

You seem to have a great grasp of what is going on. Keep us updated.
