Quote from a silly book but funny:
“I’m terribly sorry, but the intellectual position under which you attempt to inspire a sense of gender-based emotional shame due to an appeal to a traditional Agricultural Age masculine meme is, thankfully, no longer valid in light of the post-feminist inquiry into the nature of gender; indeed, your attempt to emotionally coerce me through the use of such meme indicates your classic misunderstanding of that change. Cultural shame as a valid inter-gender tactic of debate is intrinsically tied up with the economic model under which the Patriarchy once flourished, a world in which the production of grain for the purposes of long-term food security was the primary focus of civilization. To use it in a post-industrial, gender-based context is as intellectually dishonest as mistaking a microcomputer with a small baked batter-bread confection topped with a high-fat, carbohydrate-rich layer and expecting our gender to take that conclusion seriously.”
