Ignore the fact that parthenogenesis can be done for men (sperm) also. I meant the women-only (mother+self=daughter) version.
So anyway, Harvard anthropologist, Richard Wrangham, spoke on the Lex Freidman show, and said this:
"We really need to get rid of males, because they are the source for a major problem, the lust for power." And "reproductive technology is getting to the point where it is likely that human females could reproduce without males. So, it would be a potential dynamic if everybody agreed not to have male babies".
This man has three adult male sons.
He wrote this book also:
"Demonic Males: Apes and the Origins of Human Violence"
By Richard Wrangham and Dale Peterson, first edition published 1996.
He says that inventions like nerve gas and atomic bombs threaten humanity, so men need to die and get off the planet so "humanity" continues. His main source for a female utopia working is a novel called "Herland".
Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Herland, 1915:
A novel where three guys discover a land where women reproduce by themselves and there are no men. The women are nice to the guys and give them food and fresh clothes. One of the guys rapes a girl and a trial is held in which he is instructed to leave, in exile. The book says that only with this model of society are women free and equal.
"Equal"? Equal to what? Equal to the men, who don't even exist? If it is so equal, why is the author such a fan of Lester Ward's infamous declaration that "the female sex is primary and the male secondary in the organic scheme". "Equality" my ass.
Valerie Solanas did say that the male of the human species is "caught in a twilight zone, halfway between apes and humans".
Not a fringe idea, ya'll. Radical feminists took it and got this Harvard educated pos to say it. mainstream.
Lois Waisbrooker, likened men to horses, saying we should all be selectively breed and kept only at 10% of the population.
Pam McAllister republishes her book, misleading called "A Sexual Revolution". McAllister also publishes Gearhart (who copied the original idea of Waisbrooker), in another misleadingly named book, "On peace and nonviolence".
I have always been disturbed by the fact that Gearhart is the women solely responsible for the creation and spread of academic "gender studies".
Did you know her friend, Mary Daly, held six post-grad degrees? But then lost her job for refusing to admit males into her university classes? "Equality is a scam used to enslave women by the evil patriarchal system", was her response to the legal efforts calling her out on her hatred and systemic oppression of men. Meanwhile, Gearhart was never caught.
Anyway, in the book, Demonic Males, Wrangham looks at both Chimps and Bonobos.
Chimps used a patriarchy system.
Bonobos use a matriarchal one, with females in charge, putting males in their place.
Humans evolved from chimps. Bonobos remain static, unchanged.
But OH, Bonobos are so peaceful and loving and nonviolent!!! The superior species!!!
In 2009, Wrangham wrote another book: "Catching Fire: How Cooking Made Us Human".
In it, he says chimps evolved into humans purely because of cooking.
That's right, women in the kitchen guided our evolution into being!!! No thanks to the stupid, violent men, of course.
According to the man's Wikipedia page, his hypothesis can be appropriately summarized as the following: "Cooking food is obligatory for humans as a result of biological adaptations and that cooking, in particular the consumption of cooked tubers, might explain the increase in hominid brain sizes, smaller teeth and jaws, and decrease in sexual dimorphism that occurred roughly 1.8 million years ago".
DECREASE? You read that right? DECREASE??? Did Wikipedia get it wrong? NOPE!
Caught Wrangham with his pants down around his ankles and his hand in the cookie jar. What a fucking dumbass. The academic standards at Harvard are clearly shit.
Credit to u/89peters (discovered the little known Waisbrooker/McAllister/Gearhart secret history), to u/john_nash1 (his original post on Wrangham is on r/Leftwingmaleadvocates), and to u/tiredfromlife2019 (all other details)... These are some very cool and educated men. They have much more to say and I recommend checking out their posts here on this subreddit.
