The Nordic Council of Ministers (a regional inter-governmental co-operation consisting of Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, and Iceland) has decided to close down the NIKK Nordic Gender Institute. The NIKK had been the flagship of “Gender Theory”, providing the “scientific” basis for social and educational policies that, from the 1970s onward, had transformed the Nordic countries to become the most “gender sensitive” societies in the world.

The decision was made after the Norwegian State Television had broadcasted a television documentary called “Hjernevask” (the Norwegian word for “brainwash”) in which comedian Harald Eia exposed the hopelessly unscientific character of the NIKK.

Part 1 – ”The Gender Equality Paradox"

Part 2 – ”The Parental Effect”

Part 3 – ”Gay/straight”

Part 4 – ”Violence”

Part 5 – ”Sex”

Part 6 – ”Race” (password: hjernevask)

Part 7 – ”Nature or Nurture”

Tl;dr: Comedian completely destroys every claim by the gender studies institute with proof from actual scientists, biologists, psychologists etc. to the point where the state shuts it down.

This is possibly the greatest media presentation on gender issues I've ever seen. If you can only watch one of them, I think it should be the first part. When he shows the British professor the video of the sociologists completely dismissing the science out of hand, her reaction is priceless. She then gives an amazingly insightful comment about biology influencing our behaviors.

Honestly I think this video is one of the biggest testaments to TRP. Not only does it prove the differences between men and women that we have been stressing, but it also shows "scientists" (male and female) hamstering despite strong evidence otherwise. I also was fascinated by the idea that true equality creates inequality. This video pumped me up, and made me proud to be a red piller. I would recommend it to anyone new to this. I'm really curious to see what labels the general reddit folk would fling around after seeing this powerful video.

[–]SexualStrategist8 points9 points  (0 children) | Copy

true equality creates inequality

So true. This statement applies not only to men and women, but to all social issues and economic issues. The more society tries to create "equality", the more it creates a system where one person or group of persons benefits at the expense of another person or group of persons.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy

I couldn't agree more.

[–]Endorsed ContributorRedBigMan21 points22 points  (1 child) | Copy

Yeah...

You know I find it amusing in that first video that the woman representing gender studies was always on her heels when he was asking the tough questions. The man representing gender studies was fairly articulate even though he was still being proven wrong.

Of course the ones championing biology and/or social conditioning together were the most articulate and believable because they actually had evidence and experience to back it up.

[–]jmottram0815 points16 points  (0 children) | Copy

I am not disagreeing with you... but it is a movie. You are shown what the director wants you to see.

[–]jacobman9 points10 points  (6 children) | Copy

The problem is that the brain is so complex that we've barely scratched the surface in figuring out how it works. The opponents of the biological influence want to see definitive understood differences in the brain before they will even consider the idea that biology is at play here. Unfortunately the best that can be done right now is testing of the brain from the outside. Put the brain in situations and see how it reacts. The opponents of biological influences just dismiss such studies completely, which I think is crazy. That just means that there is low certainty about things.

Here is one question I have. Can science currently tell the difference between the brains of people with one type of personality vs another personality? We know it has to exist since brains don't just act in a consistently unique manner because of randomness. If we don't have that capability then why are the opponents of biological influence requiring that brain differences be detected before they will put any weight on the other experiments. If they can find the difference in the brain then we can assume, based off of the fact that adult males and females exhibit different personalities, that they also have different brains. Why aren't the opponents of biological influence then trying to prove their hypothesis by examining how those differences develop, and what proof do they have that the differences aren't biologically driven?

[–]jacobman0 points1 point  (3 children) | Copy

The only thing that I've ever heard of is connectivity and region size comparisons. Both sides continuously claim the other sides studies are bunk, and I'm not motivated enough in this topic to make this subject a big part of my life. Basically I'm staying out of it.

Either way, as I said before, size differences and large scale connectivity patterns only scratch the surface of how the brain works. There are many personality traits that are consistently exhibited by certain individuals and these behaviors somehow have basis in the brain. Until we're at the level where we can analyze the brain in a much more complex and involved manner trying to pinpoint many behaviors to the structure of the brain is a dream. Much of the brain right now can only be analyzed by looking at the behaviors produced. Trying to say that there definitely is no biological difference between groups because you can't figure out where the difference is in the brain is ridiculous. First of all, unless someone is going to claim that our behaviors originate from outside of our body, we know the differences are there. There shouldn't even be a question about if there are physical differences. They're there. The real question is if those physical differences that lead to our different behavior are things that we're born with or if they're things that we develop after we're born in response to external stimuli. The key part being, in response to external stimuli.

[–][deleted] 7 points8 points  (2 children) | Copy

You've totally gotten involved. Everything you see in your daily life suggests that men and women act differently. Every piece of history you've ever read or heard of has shown gender roles exactly like the ones we have today.

If you don't come to any conclusions, it is the very definition of being unwilling to think about the issue. You could have just watched the documentaries instead of spending your time writing large comments and being the equivalent of an agnostic for the feminist religion.

[–]jacobman5 points6 points  (0 children) | Copy

I had already watched two of the documentaries when I made the comments. Unfortunately I have a life so I couldn't spend my whole day watching them all. Also, I didn't say I don't have opinions. I'm just not going to go way out of my way to become an expert in the research in the area. Therefore I'm going to stay out of the debate about what research is weak and what research has been refuted, which is what both sides seem to always claim about the other.

[–]bam2_898 points9 points  (0 children) | Copy

Social Science is largely a misnomer. Don't get me wrong, there are serious and highly qualified researchers involved in those fields, but for the most part, it lacks the defining trait of a scientific question: falsifiability. In actual science, there is always something that if introduced or discredited would falsify the assertion. For example: a human fossil in the Jurassic Period would totally derail evolution, but that hasn't happened. For these fools posing as scientists, there is nothing that would disprove the principles behind their SJW agenda. It's not science. Full stop. Even worse, it's pseudoscience.

This is honestly a must-watch if you care about philosophy at all. You'll see how intellectually bankrupt and cult-like gender studies professors are. A comedian just asking them questions and for evidence supporting their claims makes complete fools of them.

[–]BarbarianRedScourge127 points128 points  (23 children) | Copy

I watched this with my best friend, who later made the mistake of arguing/re-watching it with his extremely (annoying) feminist girlfriend. Her response was basically the same from the start.

"No, that's wrong." When pressed for what was wrong, she was unable to answer other than saying "This is made by people who HATE women." When asked, even if that's so, what's wrong with their logic, she finally went full on yelling and asked why he was attacking her.

It's telling that a critique of Scandinavian Gender Studies is a personal attack on her in her mind. Any comment about women is a comment directly about her. Solipsism is powerful.

[–]bunker_man16 points17 points  (10 children) | Copy

How is it that all these otherwise seemingly sane people always end up with these radical SOs? Are they so desperate they'll take anything? For me it was fairly reasonable to just sort through and be patient until I found someone good who was not this insane.

[–]BarbarianRedScourge18 points19 points  (5 children) | Copy

If you really want a long response: he was raised mostly by a single mother who was so insane and controlling she really did a number on him. His dad, who was around at least but did not have full custody, was a total betamax despite looking more than a little like Sting.

I'll give you a super brief example of his mother's behavior: once he washed his hands in a theater bathroom and was freaking out because he was headed home right after that. The soap was very floral scented, and he worried that she would think he was doing drugs when she smelled his hands. I stopped him, "smells your hands? Why would she be able to smell your hands?!" He told me that she does that to see if he's been doing "things he shouldn't." Which probably meant more than he realized at the time, and grosses me out now.

So he's always had a preference for girls who direct the relationship. This one is probably the worst in the feminism department. She works for an non-profit and is very wealthy. She comes from a household with an extremely beta father. And she has no grip on what reality looks like. If they didn't spoon feed it to her in college, she isn't interested.

(Aside: she and I have had the women vs men earning rate argument, only because I wanted to rile her. She couldn't accept those numbers either, and we pulled them directly from the BLS.)

So that's your answer. He is with a girl who is roughly as controlling as his mother, just in different ways. He's seen my success with women over the last few years, and listens to me to some extent, so he isn't totally averse to the red pill ideals. But he constantly says "I don't want to do it that way." So he gets what he gets. I'm hoping this one is crazy enough to make him reconsider.

[–]DinosaursGoPoop12 points13 points  (1 child) | Copy

Yeah I dated extensively usually multiple women at a time until I figured out what it was I wanted. Most just date until they find something shiny and then keep it because it's shiny.

You have to be first aware that there is something you are looking for. Most people are not that self aware, they want looks and basic chemistry. That shit fades, you need actual compatibility. I looked specifically for a woman that had what I then called 30's housewife ideals. Found her and while some minor issues we are a great husband and wife as well as father and mother. Not a married couple with kids, that is modern era bullshit. Husband and Wife as well as Father and Mother.

To many kids fed bullshit at an early age never even realize there is a difference.

[–]bunker_man17 points18 points  (0 children) | Copy

That's the point. They legitimately see things as a one dimensional line of where females are relative to males. You're either closing the gap... or you're not. And if you're not, you're part of the problem. Even trying to dismantle ways females have it better for the sake of equality in all areas is anathema to them since they see that as widening the gap.

Oh, I promise you, when you understand the language (Norwegian here), their frantic stuttering and inability to argue reasonably is absolutely astonishing. It's just as bad as it looks. The only argument they have is that they don't understand why anyone would want to investigate biological differences. Damn, what a waste of government money.

Edit: I just want to add, I don't know if it shines through in the translation, but the woman in the video is eff-ing scary. She looks like one of those feminists that could explode into a screaming inferno at a bar or something.

[–]vaker2 points3 points  (0 children) | Copy

Actually ... no. Challenging makes a difference only for people who listen, have basic reasoning skills and somewhat open minds. What she needed early on was somebody to clearly and forcefully tell her that she's stupid and should just shut up. If a powerful male told her early on, she wouldn't have wandered into la-la land on her own.

[–]Furbowl11 points12 points  (0 children) | Copy

Effectively, she is saying that her theory of gender equality does not permit any other answer, and therefore gender equality is true. This is a logical fallacy called "begging the question". I wonder what kind of pretend college gave her a degree.

The guy who refuses to accept any of the other studies has a more sophisticated answer; he wants to see the "exact way" in which biology affects gender choices, and in the meantime his gender equality ideas must be true. I'd say he is like someone who refuses to believe that physics is worth studying because it is only a bunch of theories. "F=ma has only been proven to 15 decimal places? Come back to me when you know EXACTLY." (Not that I'm putting forward a strawman here... Speaking of fallacious arguments...)

As someone who became an atheist in rural USA, I was surprised to see the gender theorists resort to the same basic arguments as religious fundamentalists. The comedian shows one of the gender theorists stone cold evidence, such as gender differences in one day old babies or gender differences across time. The gender theorists response was that no amount of "weak" evidence could ever "prove" biological hypothesis, so he would remain a good scientist by adopting an anti-biological perspective.

This sounds remarkably similar to denying the validity of evolution because not all past animals are accounted for in the fossil record. Also, just as religious fundamentalists will translate "you can't prove god doesn't exist" to "I'm going to continue to say god exists", the gender theorists translate, "You can't prove that babies don't receive some gender information from society" to "I'm going to say society dictates the gender of babies".

Fundamentalists of both groups respond to any rational skepticism by immediately attacking the motives of anyone questioning their religions. In this case, we see the immediate response of gender theorists to actual medical research is to ask, "Isn't it strange how frenetic these people are to show a biological impact?"

It's unfortunate the many people in the United States will rebel against their closed minded religious parents by going to university and immediately joining the "post-modernist" religion. These people never get a chance to see the world without constant brainwashing.

It meshes well with their jante's law culture. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jante_Law

[–]autowikibot12 points13 points  (0 children) | Copy

Here's a bit from linked Wikipedia article about Jante Law :

The Law of Jante (Danish: Janteloven (Danish pronunciation: [ˈja̝nd̥əˌlo̞ʋˀən]); Norwegian: Jantelova or Janteloven; Swedish: Jantelagen (Swedish pronunciation: [ˈjantɛˌlɑːɡɛn])) is the idea that there is a pattern of group behaviour towards individuals within Scandinavian communities that negatively portrays and criticises individual success and achievement as unworthy and inappropriate. The Jante Law as a concept was created by the Dano-Norwegian author Aksel Sandemose. In his novel A fugitive crosses his tracks (En flyktning krysser sitt spor, 1933, English translation published in the USA in 1936) identified the Law of Jante as ten rules. Sandemose's novel portrays the small Danish town Jante (modelled upon his native town Nykøbing Mors as it was at the beginning of the 20th century, but typical of all small towns and communities), where nobody is anonymous.

people so dumb they make horrible choices that make them poor.

Plenty of people with high IQs will make dumb decisions that make them poor as well. The human mind is not very well adapted to managing money and finances. Nearly everyone can fall victim to the "zero down, no payments for blah blah blah" bullshit and end up with huge amounts of debt and little to show for it.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (6 children) | Copy

It's hard to get in the mind of a low IQ person. They have very short time horizons so it's hard for them to figure out what will happen to them when they do a certain action.

For example they might see something out of a store that they want so they just grab it not thinking that they could be caught.

When I say low IQ people making bad decisions I'm not just talking about high interest loans.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (5 children) | Copy

You're right in that sense, people who are really really dumb make really really bad decisions that screw up their lives. My problem is that I have such a high IQ that average people seem dumb to me, maybe that's my problem.

But it seems to me there's a common misconception in society equating intelligence to wealth and unintelligence to poverty. I've met many people with far lower IQs than me who have far larger bank accounts (that they earned themselves) than I do. I've also met people far smarter than me who are also much poorer than me.

IDK, I think we're both right.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (4 children) | Copy

Have you had an IQ test done?

IQ does correlate with wealth but it's just an average.

But it makes a lot of sense when you say it out loud. On average smart people make more money than dumb people.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (3 children) | Copy

Yes, I was tested at the end of my third grade year, my IQ was tested at 134. I believe IQ correlates with success until you get past 128, then it has less effect on overall success.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (2 children) | Copy

You need to get retested.

When you are young, they change the formula based on age. Your IQ also fluctuates and then hardens around age 18.

Also 134 is high enough to get into Mensa. So if you get retested and it is really that high, you should apply.

Also there doesn't seem to be any limit with IQ as far as I know. For example, on average someone with 130 IQ will be less successful than someone with a 135 IQ. It's probably less of a difference, but it's still there.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (1 child) | Copy

I don't really care about MENSA or anything like that. I suspect my IQ is higher than 134, like I said before, average people seem very dumb to me and it's often very frustrating for me. But I don't care to quantify that or join MENSA . Instead, I will let my inventions and achievements stand as a testament to my intelligence.

I think that's a hasty generalization there are many good scientists in Scandinavia...

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy

There aren't that many options and nations that are highly homogeneous like the countries in Northern Europe. Had the studies been done in a highly diverse place like the United States, the results would be different. Not to mention, if a little boy and little girl from different parents were raised by the same adopting parents, the outcomes of these two children would be markedly different.

This is a pretty good documentary.

Watch for the hot blonde on the street discussing her prefrences for badboys ONS and more beta for relationships.

A minor correction however is that all these people are still professors at major universities and there is still "gender equality" research all over the place.

True, but it's not as if when she is looking for a BF she is looking for an ugly guy. I think most women would agree their ideal man is AlphaBux. A man who is very sexually attractive, doesn't take shit from people and a good provider/protector.

Evolution --> DNA --> alternate hormone levels --> gender roles --> behaviors that reinforce the aforementioned evolutionary pressures --> continued DNA changes etc etc etc.

I wonder if it's because the Muslims act alpha and a majority of SJWs are female. Muslims don't apologize. Their way or the highway. Everybody else is trying to appease and apologize and other beta shit. That encourages the SJWs, assorted 'victims' and liberals to continue with their tantrums.

[–]Endorsed ContributorrebuildingMyself3 points4 points  (0 children) | Copy

It's simpler than that. SJWers are no more than political hipsters. They rush to "defend" what their enemy (white males) are perceived to be attacking. After 911, there was a lot of anti-muslim sentiments. Most out of fear of the unknown (the US govt didn't try to stop it but stroked the flames to get am oil war out of it). SRS types jump out to defend now that we're relatively safer, but even if you criticize their treatment of women they'll take Muslim side. Feminism is only for protecting upper middle class white women it seems (the truely oppressed).

At this point it is nothing more than projection to justify their own rabid hatred of white men (or self hatred of its a white male mangina apologist).

Also in his first phase, Mohammed gained 150 followers in over ten years of preaching.

Nothing wrong with the immigrant culture. What I'm saying is that, in a darwin sense of the word, some cultures will become extinct as superior cultures spread into their lands and take over. Feminism infects a culture and makes it inferior (scientific research, business, and academic output takes a backburner to political correctness and feminist approved discrimination. Marriage rates plummet and so does reproduction rates) and the open border policy makes the weakening culture susceptible to a flood of cultures that outpace them in every way.

Democracy will work nicely. Muslims swoop in for a better life, flick away feminist attempts to reforn them (protests etc), vote in masses for a Muslim friendly government, get their own sharia courts set up to avoid divorce-rape from fucking up family fortunes, and slowly turn a once thriving nation with a strong socialized government into the cold Saudi Arabia.

[–]najanaja1 point2 points  (1 child) | Copy

No, and most things said about Scandinavia in this thread is extreme hyperbole. I mean, there are men importing Thai women but it's rare enough to be "my uncle's weird childhood friend". I've lived in Sweden for some years and sure, sometimes feminism here is just too much but once you put that newspaper editorial away most people are busy living their lives. There's a big difference between feminist bias in society, politics and media, and having female overlords whipping our men all the way to SE Asia. The former is a (very disturbing) reality, the latter is not. Swedish society may be one of the most gender obsessed in the world but the picture of feminazi hell painted here is just exaggerated.

I would agree that there are obvious statistical differences between men and women as a whole, but I would also like to point out that technology has gone to great lengths to minimize the role of genetic differences when it comes to societal roles - especially those relegated to one sex or another. Example: To perform well in the Roman Legion, one must have the stamina and strength of a man to fight in hand to hand combat, even if it was done in short, violent bursts. Now, exceptionally strong women can fight, since most of the strength and stamina involves carrying gear rather than actually fighting. It takes relatively less strength to point and shoot than it does to hold back an enemy with a shield and stab with a spear.

Organize a public showing for students (do NOT let teachers come if you value your academic career), and leave time for a debate afterwards.

The part 5 about sex is particularly interesting when we come to the part about infidelity about 26-27 minutes in. At 29 minutes the one guy states that the woman is most worried about the infidelity because it jeoparidizes the man's diversion of his commitment and his resources to her.

Part 2 - The Parental Effect

This is absolutely fascinating. I had no idea that genetics play such a strong role in determining a child's preferences, intelligence, addictions, etc. For instance, there is no correlation between adopted children's IQ and that of their adoptive parents. The correlation is only between their genetic parents, even if they are not raised by them. So interesting.

Fantastic link! Thanks for sharing.

This is basic information but is systematically hidden from us and not allowed to be discussed most of the time.

I must say that i too was surprised that there is no correlation. I would have expected at least a small correlation as it's hard for me to believe that intelligence is only influenced by nature. But of course, nurture isn't just the parents. But one thing i asked myself and maybe someone here can answer this: Are there special requirements on adopting children that can cut the variation on adoptive parents iq down to a point where a significant correlation is really hard to find? I mean stuff like income/social status/etc. that unfolds in a very homogen parent group. Kind of holding this one variable constant to see how much the other (genetics) predicts?

I love how it is literally the opposite. I don't see why homosexuality being a choice is so offensive. Sexually is a spectrum not some black and white shit.

Some people are in the middle where they can literally choose which gender to fuck and be with. Some men are totally gay, hate woman, some men just want pussy. It's still always a choice how you identify and what emotional urges you chase after.

Emotions = identity for them.

Gender, you are literally born that way. It's insane.

I believe that if somebody believes that they're better off as a member of the opposite gender, and pumps themselves up full of hormones to achieve that, that they should be allowed to do whatever crazy shit they want. The key is that a majority of people aren't transgender, and you shouldn't take money away from real education to fund feminist bullshit like this. Feminists should be allowed to do whatever crazy shit they want in their own dark corner of society. I'm fine with a bunch of dumb SJWs deciding to start their own "Gender Studies" academy, funding it with private funds, and then getting people to go to it. Less competition for the rest of us who don't believe in that crap. Just keep all of the people who want to get a non-useful degree away from the rest of us, and society will be better as a whole.

Mark you that gender dysphoria exists. People don't go under the knife to get their dick tucked away or their boobs cut out because they thought it would be fun. It is because there is a mental disconnect between them and their bodies. Saying that gender is a choice is as ludicrous as saying that homosexuality is a choice.

Here's the linked section Dismantled from Wikipedia article Nordic Gender Institute :

The institute was dismantled as a Nordic Institution in December 2011 by a decision of the Nordic Council of Ministers, but some of its functions will be reopened as a co-operative body some time in the future. NIKK had initiated important projects with the goal of gender equality, coordinated and carried out, including Investigations, studies, surveys, reports and opinions.

The public debate in response to the 7-part documentary series "Hjernevask" (brainwashing) of the comedian Harald Eia, which aired in spring 2010 in the Norwegian television NRK had influence on the closing. The Norwegian Parliament addressed these television reports, the core of the criticism concerned the scientific neglect of the biological to the social component. The Norwegian network for Gender Studies states correlations between "Hjernevask" and increased discussion on the gender studies in its Annual report 2010.

These are without doubt the best videos on these subjects I have ever seen. I agree with Charles Murray, in the next 10-20 years the work in genetics is going to provide us with some very clear answers on a lot of questions. Its already fairly clear that genetics plays a large role in how we are, I worry though that there is no amount of scientific evidence that will convince people who have already decided that there can be no differences between human beings.

[–]bam2_8916 points17 points  (11 children) | Copy

You can deduce everything you need to know about Scandinavian gender sensitivity from their prostitution laws. In the rest of the world, it's either legal and thus okay for both parties or illegal and thus a crime for both parties. In Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Iceland, prostitution is considered exploitation of the seller by the customer. It is 100% legal to offer but not to purchase sex. Their society has literally removed accountability from women.

[–]The_Determinator0 points1 point  (6 children) | Copy

Women can offer sex, can't be payed, and it removes responsibility from women?

I don't follow.

[–]bam2_895 points6 points  (5 children) | Copy

Prostitutes can offer it for money and accept payment with impunity, but the john is committing a crime.

[–]The_Determinator0 points1 point  (4 children) | Copy

That has to be an oversight... right? Like some fuckup forgot to dot an "i" somewhere. How could anyone write the law as "you can offer sex for money but if they say yeeessss...." and go "it's good, law's good, it'sdone".

[–]bam2_893 points4 points  (3 children) | Copy

No it's deliberate. Their whole rationale is that the prostitute can only ever be a victim.

[–]The_Determinator0 points1 point  (2 children) | Copy

"Rationale". Then why the fuck is it legal? Only ever a victim, yup that should be legal then.

[–]bam2_891 point2 points  (1 child) | Copy

To them, it's akin to the act of being raped and criminalizing it on their end is like the Islamic view that the rape victim is at fault. Don't ask me to explain why.

Here's a bit from linked Wikipedia article about Hjernevask :

Hjernevask (Brainwash) is a Norwegian popular science documentary series that aired on Norwegian television in 2010. The series was produced by Harald Eia and Ole Martin Ihle, and was completed in seven episodes consisting of interviews with Norwegian and foreign researchers who have different views on the nature versus nurture debate.

Ihle has stated that the pair initially planned to make a TV program about the biology associated with Darwin year, but Steven Pinker's controversial bestseller The Blank Slate convinced them to "go a little deeper into the biological basis for the difference between people". 2010, Eia received the Fritt Ord Honorary Award "for, through the programme Brainwash, having precipitated one of the most heated debates on research in recent times."

I wish Harald made a series on other 'progressive' dogmas that also fail to stand up to logic and data.

It totally gets my goat that liberals are big fans of genetics and evolution and happily use it against other religions, but it's not PC to discuss that it also contradicts many 'progressive' dogmas. (equality, etc)

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (4 children) | Copy

I was a huge fan of Penn and Teller's Bullshit, which is a little more motivated thinking and certainly doesn't focus on any one political group. But they do get granola crunchy hippies to buy fake carbon credits and to identify a banana labeled as organic as "better tasting" when it is the other end of the same non-organic banana they tasted.

Agreed. They've even admitted to this in a few interviews and stated that they wanted to do an episode of Bullshit! about Bullshit! itself. One of the specific things i recall they mentioned was an episode (or part of one) they did about second-hand smoke.

Many episodes were also just filler to raise money for the bigger episodes where they wanted to tackle issues more thoroughly.

I would say a better analogy is that it's not growing quite so fast anymore, perhaps because there is little room for it to grow. There is only so much power to be had in this world, and the elasticity of the feminist movement is coming to its limit. Like the rubber band that Harald uses as an analogy for the success of students in the second video, the rubber band of feminism is near its limit. Hopefully those who hold it in their hands will let go slowly and not bring things to a tearing point.

True, must be devastating to have a comedien ask you questions you can't answer. What I mean is that when the scientists were presented with counter arguements they didn't seem to get angry.

Because they want to see everyone as inherently equal. And being different implies that some people are actually "better" in some areas over others, which would imply that inequality is an inevitable outcome.

[–]AMan_Reborn-5 points-4 points  (4 children) | Copy

Just watching the first one it proves more the influence isms can have on the perspective of the scientitific community more than anything else. Scandinavian researchers are going to be a self selecting group looking to support their BS concept of gender because of feminism. Same goes for atheism and socialism and Global Warming. They all impact the scientists or 'experts' looking to back up those theories (those 4 in particular) and if not deal with a huge amount of backlash. They go in knowing what they want to find.

[–]flamehorn5 points6 points  (3 children) | Copy

What specifically is it about atheism, for example, that colours scientific inquiry? What theories are scientists looking to "back-up" from the point of view of atheism? I would have thought that the exact opposite was true, Christian "scientists" ignoring all the evidence to hand to back up their theories that the earth is 6000 years old, for example.

[–]Heuristics2 points3 points  (0 children) | Copy

One example is the a-priori rejection of the big bang hypothesis due to it lending itself better to a theistic world view.

Another is the rejection of genetics due to it clashing with one of the tenets of scientific atheism (egalitarianism) in for example the soviet union.

[–]AMan_Reborn-3 points-2 points  (0 children) | Copy

The atheists that go into it to actively disprove god. They reveal a part of the universe that we are ignorant of and say 'See this disproves god' not 'This is a piece in the working of the Universe'. They then take it and parade around saying that essentially the creator idea of the uncaused cause is no longer valid which is usually nothing to do with what they were looking for in the first place. Meanwhile not only has the creator theory as an uncaused cause not even been dented it has not furthered their own concept, or lack thereof, of what the uncaused cause might be. So things are exactly as they were but now we have atheists parading around telling us in fact its not. They are misconstruing the science to suit their own purposes.

So are people who talk about the 6000 year old creation. There is no decided consensus even among creationists or even Christians and Jews what that means. Many of those that think literally everything kicked off 6,000 years ago ignore the subtlety and nuance of the Bible.

[–]sbbh3-1 points0 points  (1 child) | Copy

This does not prove gender studies is nonsense, it shows their being inconsistencies in the orthodox "social nurture theory" prominent in the second half of this century. Many, the majority even, of social scientists do acknowledge temperamental differences between boys and girls, without disqualifying theories on social reproduction of gender roles. When a new particle is discovered, disproving a theory we do not say physics is nonsense- it is improved and refined and the same thing exists with the study of genders. If anything the show showed that there is a lot more to learn about biological and social elements of gender.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy

As you can see the gender studies scientists are outright discounting any biological evidence, which is not only unscientific, but, as we see, empirically and factually incorrect. Gender studies is nonsense as far as trying to "rectify" the "inequalities" in society.
