* Admittedly Klevius seems also still to be the only one addressing
the core issue of this monumental world problem. However, this fact is no more surprising
than the fact that we live in a world where every girl has to assign
herself to long hair, make up, "feminine" clothing etc cultural
"femininity". And if she doesn't then she has to excuse herself by
labeling herself a lesbian, a transexual etc or be labeled by others as
"suffering" from the invented mental pathology of "gender dysphoria".
What is sex segregation - and what is it not?
According to soft brained Wikipedia: Sex segregation is the
physical, legal, and cultural separation of people according to their
biological sex. This is distinct from gender segregation, which is the
separation of people according to social constructions of what it means
to be male versus female.
According to hard brained Klevius: Sex segregation is the
physical, legal (e.g. Sharia), and cultural separation of girls/women
from boys/men according to social
constructions of what it means to be male versus female.
Gender
segregation is an impossible term in this context because the separation of people according to social
constructions of what it means to be male versus female resides inside the brain not outside the body and can therefore not be
called segregation. Segregation is the action or state of setting
someone apart from other people or being set apart. In other words,
segregation can only be imposed on you from outside with or without your
consent. You cannot segregate yourself. Moreover, segregation implies a collective, not individual, action.
According to Carmen Hamilton (apparently a soft brained lawyer): We’re born as either male or female and,
generally, are raised to look and act
as our society expects men and women to look and act (sic).
If a radical (sic) approach to eliminate gender segregation were
adopted, we would see the complete eradication of gender segregation in
all aspects of life. There would no longer be men’s and women’s
washrooms, sports, or communal change rooms.
Still, a move to eradicate systemic gender segregation, would inevitably
have fallout that would need to be addressed. There are legitimate
safety concerns behind some gender segregation. Physical and sexual
violence suffered by women at the hands of men continues to be a sad
reality. It is difficult to see how women prisoners will be adequately
protected if sex segregation is eliminated in prisons.
It also begs the question about whether we can eliminate sex segregation
when we have not yet achieved gender equality (sic). Would such a
movement nullify the gains fought for by feminists over the last
century? There was a time when it was seen as a huge win for women in
trades when employers were required to provide separate washrooms for
women. Further, we cannot ignore the physiological differences between
men and women that put women at a disadvantage in many sports. We would
likely see far fewer female Olympians.
Klevius comment: 'We are
generally raised to look and act
as our society expects
men and women to look and act' is a meaningless tautology because
'generally' and 'our society' both have the same meaning. Moreover,
Carmen Hamilton seems to be deeply confused when she uses sex
segregation and gender segregation as synonyms. What do your invisible
gender thoughts in your brain have to do with physical threats from men?
Isn't it your biological sex (or your signaling of a female body) that
is visible, not your gender.
And why a 'radical elimination of segregation'? What's that anyway?!
What would radical Human Rights mean? Would it mean that there exist
some moderate Human Rights according to which just a little torture is
ok?!
And why can't we have female prisons, washing rooms etc? It has nothing
to do with sex segregation/apartheid. We have parking spots for
disabled people but not for women. And why can't women continue running
100 m separate from men? We don't call other effects of physical sex
differences sex segregation either. Carmen Hamilton seems to seriously
mix apples and pears on this topic. She represents a dangerous view that
blurs women's right to full Human Rights equality.
Carmen Hamilton also asks 'whether we can eliminate sex segregation when
we have not yet achieved gender equality'. What a non sense! 'Gender
equality' is an oxymoron in many sense but here mainly because sex
segregation is the opposite to "gender equality"! In other words a catch
22.
LGBT people have "gender rights" but 11-year old football girls have none (see below).
Klevius' sex tutorial: The problem with main stream* feminism is its "equal but different" separatism
* Folks, there are two main types of 'feminism' out there: One that is
academic and based on segregation/separatism/apartheid (e.g. muslim
feminism), and one that could be described as folk "feminism", i.e. the
erroneous belief that feminism stands for equal rights when it in fact
stands for separatism.
'Heterosexual attraction' is the only analytical concept you need - yet no one seems to use it as such except Klevius
The feminist fallacy of the double failure not to recognize
heterosexual attraction while simultaneously keeping up sex segregation
Heterosexual attraction is the evolutionary logarithm that underpins heterosexual reproduction.
The
only heterosexual human is a heterosexual man. If you don't
understand/recognize this simple fact then you, just like feminists,
have no say at all in discussions about Human Rights and the adverse effect of sex
segregation.
Heterosexual attraction in humans resides in the male brain as the
female body. Not the other way round. As a consequence only men can have
heterosexual sex.
All men and women are different but equal
according to Human Rights. However, according to feminists, only men and
women are different from a rights perspective. So when Moi uses some
500 pages to tell us that only women, not men, can have women's
experience, we can waive her next deep thought namely that women are
different from other women.
Ever thought about why Mideast happened
to be the birthplace of the most disgusting of cumber stones on
humanity's road to Universal Human Rights (including women)? In
Demand for Resources Klevius established the root origin of "general"
sex segregation as connected to the transition from hunting/gathering to
investment a la the neolithic revolution.
However, pure
institutionalized sexism, i.e. sex segregation as apartheid, was born
out of particular secondary circumstances and effects of sex segregation
in the commerce between the new forms of production. The main
birthplace for true sexism was Mideast due to its geographical location.You don't have sex religions in China, Japan etc.
When men traded and therefore travelled around, women became
even more segregated than they were in the farming society where they at
least had a daily contact over the sex barrier. Combine this
development with slavery and defense against slavery and you end up with
"the chosen people" whose survival was the institutionalized Vagina
gate and whose (im)morality was sanctioned by "God".
Slowing down the process of de-sex segregation at an 'all deliberate
speed' while treating sex segregation symptoms with hormones and surgery
'All deliberate speed' was a phrase used in the
Supreme Court’s decision in Brown v. Board of Education, which declared
the system of legal segregation unconstitutional. However, the Court
ordered only that the states end segregation with ‘all deliberate
speed', i.e. to weigh something in the balance.

Kelly Bermudez is the plaintiff in a suit, which alleges Colombia’s
military service requirement is discriminatory insofar as it only
considers assigned sex — typically determined at birth by the presence
of absence of external sex organs — and not gender identity – a 'lived
internal and individual experience'.
While the military
service requirement only applies to men, there is currently no statute
governing cases of transsexuals who were assigned a restricting sex at
birth and due to sex segregation weren't allowed to lead their lives as
they wished.
Gender, as opposed to sex, is a “lived
internal and individual experience,” according to an amicus brief filed
on Bermudez’s behalf.
Trans persons’ ability to
'construct their gender in a determining fashion' is an implicit part of
their “individual autonomy as human beings', an interpretation the
Constitutional Court agreed with, argues the brief, when it ruled that
all Colombians have the right to 'freely' define their 'association with
any particular gender, as well as romantic orientation toward others.'
As
a consequence it is argued that the current military exemption practice
violates Bermudez’s 'right to gender identity and all related rights by
denying her construction of identity, leading to the violation of her
privacy, personhood, and right to live free of humiliations', reads the
brief.
Klevius comment: So wrong! It is sex
segregation that denies the construction of an identity that partly or
fully falls outside this segregation, leading to the violation of
privacy, personhood, and right to live free of humiliations etc. And sex
segregation is already dismissed in the 1948 Human Rights declaration.
Why not simply stick to Human Rights rather than upholding a ridiculous
sex apartheid.
Jeff and Hillary Whittington presented a video showing little Ryland's female-to-male transition
Klevius comment: You can't possibly be born with a 'gender'. The
popularity of LGBT rhetorics is largely due to the defense of sex
segregation/apartheid. So ironically, LGBT people's fight for the
freedom to lead their lives as they wish simultaneously restricts the
playroom for non-LGBT girls and women. Again, Klevius simple answer is
to empower girls'/women's Human Right to lead their lives without
restrictions because of their sex. And if people don't stop bullying
them then why not criminalize such bullying as a hate crime. That would
in no time make people equally cautious as they are now about saying
anything about muslims, wouldn't it.
John D. Inazu, associate professor of law at Washington University
School of Law, an expert on the First Amendment freedoms of speech,
assembly, and religion: In less than three decades, the Supreme
Court has moved from upholding the criminalizing of gay conduct to
affirming gay marriage. The tone of the debates has also shifted. Views
on gender and sexual conduct have flip-flopped. Thirty years ago, many
people were concerned about gender equality, but few had LGBTQ equality
on their radar. Today, if you ask your average 20-year-old whether it is
worse for a fraternity to exclude women or for a Christian group to ask
gay and lesbian members to refrain from sexual conduct, the responses
would be overwhelmingly in one direction.
Luke Brinker (in Bill O'Reilly's Dangerous Parenting Advice For
Transgender Kids): O'Reilly has also encouraged parents to actively
force their transgender children to conform to gender stereotypes.
Klevius: So it's not a 'gender stereotype' when 'activities and clothing
more commonly associated with boys' is enough to deem a girl on a path
toward physiological manipulation of her body rather than give her the
right to perform these activities without sex apartheid.
Jack Drescher, a member of the APA subcommittee working on the revision
of DSM: 'All psychiatric diagnoses occur within a cultural context.
Klevius comment: So when DSM 15 is out, can the male to female trans get their penis back, please?
Homosexuality was diagnosed in the DSM as an illness until 1973, and
conditions pertaining to homosexuality were not entirely removed until
1987.
The new term 'gender dysphoria' implies a temporary mental state rather
than an all-encompassing disorder, a change that blurs the picture even
more.
Shannon Minter, legal director of the National Center for Lesbian
Rights: 'Having a diagnosis is extremely useful in legal advocacy. We
rely on it even in employment discrimination cases to explain to courts
that a person is not just making some superficial choice ... that this
is a very deep-seated condition recognized by the medical community.'
Klevius comment: The only deep-seated condition in this appalling symptom of sex segregation is the medical community and money.
Mental health professionals who work with trans clients are also pushing
for a revised list of symptoms, so that a diagnosis will not apply to
people whose distress comes from external prejudice, adults who have
transitioned, or children who simply do not meet gender stereotypes.
Why is the sex segregated bullying of girls like Moa Thambert supported
when it should, in fact, be classified as a hate crime?!
Parents used to shout 'boy' at me, says now 16-year old Moa Thambert.
Moa Thambert, 16, has always had short hair cut and been tough on the football pitch.
Moa Thambert, 16: It took me hard to be called a boy. Is still in the
back of my head. As a child I didn't understand why they wanted to
segregate me. But now I understand that it was because I dare to take my
place and that I have a certain appearance. It makes me really sad.
When Moa was six she begun playing football and immediately got comments
about her "inappropriate" sex appearance. 'It's so sick because there
is no difference in how kids look like. One should really be careful not
to do so. It strikes very hard.It shouldn't need to be like that.
Pia Sundhage (Sweden's football lady number one and former US coach):
It's appalling. In the 1960s I had to pretend to be a boy to be allowed
playing in a football team.
Pia Sundhage refers to a recent Swedish football tournament
(Fotbollsfesten) for kids where 11-year old girls in Glumslövs FF/Lunds
BK were accused of being boys by leaders and parents from Ã…hus IF.
Ã…hus IF coaches were so aggressive and got the whole team with them, says
Jens Lindblom, father of 11-year old Agnes.
The girls cried while the sex abuse continued.
Klevius concluding comment: I've even written a PhD thesis about
exactly this (including in depth interviews with Pia Sundhage and other
important female football personalities from the 1940s and on).
However. now I want to publish my findings for the general public but
hesitate to do so due to the slim interest (or is it just deep
ignorance) in this the biggest of global questions. Football/soccer is
the sport that seems to best reveal the medieval thinking about sex
segregation.
Any hints on how to make the book more popular than this blogging?
And why isn't the whole world reading Klevius?
Anyone?
Some previous reflexions on the topic:
The shameful contamination of British universities with religious fanatism
Guardian: The University of Leicester has launched an
investigation into gender segregation (sic) at a public lecture held by
its student Islamic society.
The talk, entitled Does God
Exist?, featured a guest speaker Hamza Tzortzis as part of an Islamic
Awareness week. Seating at the event was segregated, with different
entrances into the lecture theatre for men and women. . .
In
Leicester, more than 100 students attended the segregated event, which
took place last month. A photograph passed to the Guardian shows signs
put up in a university building, directing the segregation.
A
message on the group’s website says: “In all our events, [the society]
operate a strict policy of segregated seating between males and
females.” The statement was removed after the Guardian contacted the
society.
Klevius comment: Again this confused and irrational oxymoron
'gender segregation'. The sign on the wall of Leicester University
clearly states 'males' and 'females'. It means biological sex, not
cultural gender!
Rupert Sutton, from the campus watchdog Student Rights:
There is a consistent use of segregation by student of islamic societies
across the country. While this may be portrayed as voluntary by those
who enforce it, the pressure put on female students to conform and obey
these rules that encourage subjugation should not be underestimated.
Klevius: Although islam is by far the worst culprit when it comes
to sex apartheid, there is also a consistent low level general use of
sex segregation "light"
across the world. While this may be portrayed as voluntary by those
who enforce it, the pressure put on females (not the least by other
females) to conform and obey
to sex segregation that encourages subjugation should not be
underestimated.
Leicester University is one of the world's most sexist (i.e. islamized)
universities. You
may not believe me but the truth is (an other professor witnessed it)
that a female professor, Barbara Misztal (an East European immigrant? as
BBC uses to put it), when presented with criticism against
islam's rejection of women's full Human Rights via Sharia, said "Why
don't you want to let women lead their lives as they wish". Yes, you got
it right.
She saw Sharia restrictions of women's rights as a right!
Why hasn't anyone taught her that impositions are not rights, and that
Human Rights don't hinder muslim women from choosing to live under these
impositions whereas Sharia denies them the choice to freedom.
Moreover, she also blamed the messenger for not allowing women to NOT
HAVE THEIR FULL RIGHTS!
Barbara Misztal's
female students need to know this, and as usual, it seems that
Klevius is the only one daring to really address this ultimate and extremely disastrous and even dangerous sexism.
Sharia sex segregation or Human Rights for girls/women?
In every possible form of Sharia girls/women are forced to lead their
lives in sex apartheid of varying degrees. And that includes OIC's all
muslims covering Sharia law via UN. But according to Human Rights
every girl/woman has the right to decide herself what kind of life she
wants to lead - incl. a sex segregated life if she so wishes. So to live
in a society where Sharia rules doesn't really give any fair options.
In islam women and non-muslims are all "infidels", and the only thing
that really distinguishes a woman as muslim is her "duty" towards islam
to reproduce (physically and/or culturally) as many new muslims as
possible - and of course to have the Sharia duty to serve as a sex slave for her muslim husband.
Isn't that funny, muslims need a law to get sex while for me such compulsory sex equals rape!
