THE NYTIMES: ADVANCING POST-MODERN LIBERAL IDEOLOGY, ONE GENDER AT A TIME

       A key part of contemporary liberalism's utopian agenda is the elimination of the differences between the sexes. Gender, they inform us, is "socially constructed" hence we can deconstruct the differences between the sexes and create new post-modern selves, not limited by biology. Biology itself is a creation of the patriarchy designed to enslave women.
        The official propaganda organ of Post-modern liberalism, the New York Times, loves to print heart tugging stories of the unfair treatment of BLGT's (bisexuals, lesbians, gays and transgenders). These are usually intended to create guilt in men, and feelings of grievance in women against the 'patriarchy' for insisting on real, biologically derived differences. The great day when men have been completely feminized may still be off in the future, but the Times is always on the alert to celebrate the softer, weepy, side of the metrosexual empaths they call 'men'. Now even male athletes are expected to be acutely aware of and communicative about their feelings. The master of the feigned feeling, Bill Clinton, rode to the Presidency on his ability to shed crocodile tears while feeling your pain.
        It had slipped past Horsefeathers that there is another way to eliminate the differences between the sexes. Even the Times was a bit slow on the uptake, but now they've discovered new cause for celebration. While men are being feminized, women can be masculinized. Hooray for equality! Here's a heartwarming story of girl weightlifters who have rejected the 'stereotype" of the female body, in favor of accumulating the necessary poundage, grotesque musculature and freakish appearance of male weightlifters. The Times breathlessly reports on this latest cultural advance of liberalism. They quote the weightlifting coach of the 261 lb. team leader: "...it’s a great way to get girls involved for gender equity..." Ain't social progress grand?
