Postmodernism is the Opiate of the Educated Classes

[ahhpeanutbutter]

I’ve been hearing a lot of collective moaning is past few days about going back to school. That’s funny to me since for the most part, I am glad to be back. I could wring my hands about taking more classes at a school I was supposedly done with, but that would be unnecessary. The fact is that every credit I spend at community college will mean one

I had the same feelings about post-modernism when I was taking a women's studies class last quarter and the professor was talking about how biological sex doesn't really exist and such, which annoyed the crap out of me, because if it doesn't exist then why the hell do we have a women's studies class??

yeah.. i'm all for feminism, but some people take it way out of proportion..
yeah, i don't have a vagina, matt doesn't have a penis, we imagine those things?

How do you know I don't have a penis? I thought I could keep a secret!

umm.. remember that one party... you were pretty wasted, maybe you don't...

I thought people learned the diffence between sex and gender in introduction to women's studies or cultural anthropology 101. This professor obviously got them mixed up.

On a similar note, if sex is constructed, maybe I can construct 10,000 hot babes for tonight

i learned about sex in "introduction to matt's mom."
