{ SCIENCE VS FEMINISM }

Here I'm Gonna present to you some of the contradiction that occurs between the scientific ( Biological ) findings & the feminist narrative & values .

To begin with let's see a Very famous
Controversy that clearly shows these
Tussle .

June 4th , 2011 ( ElevatorGate )
World Atheist convention :

Famous feminist blogger & podcast host Rebecca Watson complained about the harrasment she faced when someone from Atheist crowd in the elevator asked her for coffee in his hotel room .

She wrote it in vlog

The controversy took off when Richard Dawkins made a Very derogatory remarks on her . And the secularists got divided in two camps ( New Atheist vs Secular feminists ) .

Both camps started to attack each other & the contradiction was visible

Miss .Watson replied Dawkins by

What happened was the New Atheist were accused of justifying (social Darwinism ) which is actually a very misogynistic way of thinking . ..

Prominent feminists started to criticise the movement for their Toxic & insensitive attitude towards womens .

The New Atheists attack on Rebecca Watson & defending their guy at any cost . Showed the social darwinist attitude among the them .

Now let me show why this is not Just a random incident but actually a outcome of the contradiction between science and feminism .

Acc. to Darwinism the greatest rationale of Life is only survival & reproduction .

Darwin in his book ( The descent of man ) held these view based on his research findings .

Evolutionary psychology has many latest findings that goes completely against the feminist values .

For ex. reproduction is an essential part of human survival & even the mechanism of evolution .
However a feminist will say women are not baby producing machines & rightly so.

The feminist view is that throughout history men have held power ( patriarchy) however from a Darwinian perspective if patriarchy Existed throughout history & we have survived/evolved ,then it's one of system adopted by natural selection to preserve humanity .

Some justify SD

It is however a Naturalist fallacy as fr example just because Patriarchy was Naturally selected we don't have to keep the Patriarchal system going

But then it's a double edge sword .
As one can say tampering with Nature & Evolutionary process can be catastrophic for humanity .

Because of this contradiction many feminists have started to attack evolutionary science in the process & accusing it of male bias & part of patriarchy

But later on some feminists realised that fighting science is not gonna help their movement but actually make them look fools.

But the contradiction between science & feminism is still unresolved . It's just that both don't come in eachother way but when it does ( like ElevatorGate ) .

These two opposite view shows the lack of synchronisation between them .
This contradiction arises some ways ;

1. Either science will get improve & we will get a better explanation of evolutionary history in future.

2 . Feminist view will improve & change it's stance on some of it's idea's to get in line with science & nature .

3 . This Contradiction will persist .

One have to put science on sideline , Just accept the feminist narrative & their values .
And move on with it .

*If you have any other way , then most welcome .
The choice is yours
Thank you for reading this THREAD !!

Note : None of the views in the thread ( patriarchy or social Darwinism ) is mine . I just did my best to present arguments from both scientific & feminist camp .
