Judging by the female-to-male birth ratio in Korea and China, they will need a war here just to get rid of all the the excess males

The first thing I thought of wasn't sex, as reproduction isn't really a priority for me, and men aren't the only ones who can give a woman pleasure. I adore blokes, of course, but the first thing I thought of was "I wonder whether the world would be a less violent place?" There have been female heads of state that led a nation to war (i.e., Israel) of course, and who could forget Britain's Iron Lady? Where would women lead the world?

Life 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.

Although completely physical, the male is unfit even for stud service. Even assuming mechanical proficiency, which few men have, he is, first of all, incapable of zestfully, lustfully, tearing off a piece, but instead is eaten up with guilt, shame, fear and insecurity, feelings rooted in male nature, which the most enlightened training can only minimize; second, the physical feeling he attains is next to nothing; and third, he is not empathizing with his partner, but is obsessed with how he's doing, turning in an A performance, doing a good plumbing job. To call a man an animal is to flatter him; he's a machine, a walking dildo. It's often said that men use women. Use them for what? Surely not pleasure.


I bet she gets tons of invitations to dinner parties.

I've been thinking about this. Couldn't, in a generation or two, men be completely restocked? All you need is a centrifuge. But would they? Would you, if you were suddenly cast in the alpha male role, allow things to return to 'normal'?

*Aside: If China is now finding itself with a shortage of females are they going to start importing women? Forcing China to become, if not multicultural, multiethnic.

China is already very multi-ethnic.

Safe bet.

She was sexually abused by her father when she was a child, left home at 15, somehow got a degree in psychology, traveled the country (most likely as a panhandler and prostitute), shot Andy Warhol, and died destitute in 1988. She definitely had her reasons for her particularly radical brand of feminism.

Allow me to specify. I mean internationally multiethnic, in the vein of the U.S. Chinese men importing women from Russia, Brazil, etc. I honestly don't know if the Chinese would be inclined to do this. From my reading, if the Koreans were in the same place, they would find a way for males to asexually reproduce.

Well if 90% of the male population died off within a year, there would be total chaos.

Economies would colapse, food suplies would be disrupted, and our way of life would change forever.


I'm not discounting the intelligence of women, but let's be real, most of the know how on this planet when it comes to energy, transportation, medicine, ect.... is dominated by the male population.


Now eventually things would stabalize, but technogically and economically wise the world would take several steps back. The same would happen if the female population died off in similar numbers (although it would be different).


Anyways, as a man I would think it would be great for my sex life. Most straight men dream of having a Harim of beautiful women.

But I'd also be a little scared. Perhaps rival groups of women would start abducting men. Some women can be really violent.

huh?

I type so fast that I sometimes miss some of my spelling mistakes. However, I don't see any here?

Anyways, if you met me I don't think my apparent lack of spelling would interfer in your perception of me. Wink

I'm joking relax.

How would this effect the planet?


Massive world war.
If most new males born (90%) immediately contracted the virus, human life would eventually come to end - I think it would take about 3000 years. If the virus were contained/cured I think it would take about 500 years to get back to where we are now.

The planet would be better off.

But, if all new male babies were free of the virus then we would have a war beyond our imagination. The protection of each male baby, and the NEED to kill every other male born outside of the group/country/whatever would create total chaos. It would be hell on earth.

Its a human male instinct to get rid of the competition.


looking at history...you have kings sending all the men to war while reserving all the women for his harem: you have wars of killing all the men but keeping the women as booty.

Being the last man on earth? A deep male fantasy i guess.
