When Feminism Goes Too Far - Climbing Article

While the womenfolk were tending children and keeping house or cave, if you will.

"My mother explained this to me when I was in kindergarten or so.. she explained that women are different beings than men , that is women are more intelligent, more aware, and they have a full chromosome to carry those better traits. She explained that men lack a whole leg of the chromosome, so they cannot even tell when they are wrong or short sighted. She also explained that because of this women are the weavers of the fabric of society, arts and letters, diplomacy , social economics , health and welfare, education etc. Therefore men , being expendable, are hunters and warriors, because it doesn't make any great difference if they die in the process. Let that woolly mammoth take down a couple men because there will always be another one at the ready. Women will see to that in the raising of the children successfully, keeping the fabric of society intact. Men are welcome to be invited in because they are pleasing or worthy, and just as easily ushered out. Like buses, there's one by every few minutes. She explained to me that men will thump chests and expound on the inferiority of women because they lack that leg of the chromosome that gives them some perspective. So just let them have at it as they really are simply entertaining themselves since they don't have much else of any real importance to do. She said men will always compete, because they are not able to understand otherwise. She advised me to know my own legacy.

True story. Thank you, Mom.

ST has become so silly I hardly ever look at it anymore. Enjoy my post as I'm not likely to respond further. Cheers Y'all."

I understand the difference between men and women, what I don't understand are claims that feminist climbers make that women are equal in climbing performance to men across the climbing spectrum.

I'm getting really tired of being reminded that my friend Lynn did the FFA of The Nose when these feminist climbers try to prove that women are equal to or better than men when climbing at the uppermost levels. Lynn admits herself her small fingers and body size are advantageous on the cruxes of The Nose. It was still an amazing feat and one of the milestones in the evolution of freeclimbing. However, virtually every other milestone in the evolution of freeclimbing has been accomplished by males. That makes Lynn's ascent, however outstanding, an anomaly.
