>>9187799Life in this society being, at best, an utter bore and no aspect of society being at all relevant to
women, there remains to civic-minded, responsible, thrill-seeking females only to overthrow the
government, eliminate the money system, institute complete automation and destroy the male
sex.
It is now technically feasible to reproduce without the aid of males (or, for that matter, females)
and to produce only females. We must begin immediately to do so. Retaining the mail has not
even the dubious purpose of reproduction. The male is a biological accident: the Y (male)
gene is an incomplete X (female) gene, that is, it has an incomplete set of chromosomes. In
other words, the male is an incomplete female, a walking abortion, aborted at the gene stage.
To be male is to be deficient, emotionally limited; maleness is a deficiency disease and males
are emotional cripples.
The male is completely egocentric, trapped inside himself, incapable of empathizing or
identifying with others, or love, friendship, affection of tenderness. He is a completely isolated
unit, incapable of rapport with anyone. His responses are entirely visceral, not cerebral; his
intelligence is a mere tool in the services of his drives and needs; he is incapable of mental
passion, mental interaction; he can't relate to anything other than his own physical sensations.
He is a half-dead, unresponsive lump, incapable of giving or receiving pleasure or happiness;
consequently, he is at best an utter bore, an inoffensive blob, since only those capable of
absorption in others can be charming. He is trapped in a twilight zone halfway between
humans and apes, and is far worse off than the apes because, unlike the apes, he is capable
of a large array of negative feelings -- hate, jealousy, contempt, disgust, guilt, shame, doubt -- and moreover, he is aware of what he is and what he isn't.
