University professor says heterosexuality is 'tragic' and causes all sorts of societal problems for men and women

A professor at the University of California-Riverside says that heterosexuality is a "tragic" concept that perpetuates misogyny, funnels men into supporting toxic masculinity, and breaks up relationships.



What are the details?

As highlighted by Campus Reform, Jane Ward, a professor of gender and sexuality studies and self-described lesbian, says that "heterosexual relationships" are inherently bad for people and their interpersonal relationships because they highlight inequality.



In an December article for Insider, Ward argued that by all appearances, men and women don't actually like one another.



Insider's Julia Naftulin reported, "She feels sorry for straight people, especially straight women, who typically report some of the lowest sexual satisfaction in society, Ward told Insider. But she also feels sorry for straight men, who are pigeon-holed into toxic-masculine culture that teaches them they both need, and yet should also demean, women."



"It really looks like straight men and women don't like each other very much, that women spend so much time complaining about men, and we still have so much evidence of misogyny," Ward told the outlet. "From an LGBT perspective, [heterosexuality] looks actually very tragic."



Elsewhere in her discussion, Ward said that the COVID-19 pandemic is also "revealing the tragedy of heterosexuality to people who might not have otherwise paid attention to it."



Ward is also the author of a book titled "The Tragedy of Heterosexuality."

Who cares. These type of fringe liberal arts degrees should not receive a dollar of taxpayer money. In fact. private funding from these waste of timers should be used to lower the tuition for real degrees.

I kick myself that I never took a gender and sexuality studies course. That could have really advanced my career.

I am not suprised.



Employer says he has stopped hiring Ivy League grads: They're too 'woke,' too 'self-important,' or have been trained to stay silent when it matters



Writing for the Wall Street Journal on Monday, R.R. Reno, editor of First Things, a well-known religious public policy magazine, explained he has largely stopped hiring graduates from Ivy League schools because they're either too "woke," too "self-important," or have been trained to stay silent when it matters.



"A decade ago I relished the opportunity to employ talented graduates of Princeton, Yale, Harvard and the rest. Today? Not so much," Reno began before elucidating his point with a story about a student strike that took place last year at his alma mater, Haverford College, a place he described as similar to Harvard.



He recalled that concerns over "antiblackness" and the "erasure of marginalized voices" culminated in an all-college Zoom meeting that accomplished little besides outing the "thin-skinned narcissism and naked aggression" of many of the students — qualities that do not make for effective employees. On the flip side, he argued, for every outspoken student activist, there are many more who refuse to speak up when it counts:





If students can be traumatized by "insensitivity" on that leafy campus, then they're unlikely to function as effective team members in an organization that has to deal with everyday realities. And in any event, I don't want to hire someone who makes inflammatory accusations at the drop of a hat.



Student activists don't represent the majority of students. But I find myself wondering about the silent acquiescence of most students. They allow themselves to be cowed by charges of racism and other sins. I sympathize. The atmosphere of intimidation in elite higher education is intense. But I don't want to hire a person well-practiced in remaining silent when it costs something to speak up.

Reno compared the hostile environment at many elite college campuses to the "dhimmitude" of many Christians and Jews living in Muslim societies, or the "mentality of those who have internalized their second-class status."



Yet the students who counter and repel the environment have their issues, too, according to Reno:



Some resist. They would seem ideal for my organization, which aims to speak for religious and social conservatives. But even this kind of graduate brings liabilities to the workplace. I've met recent Ivy grads with conservative convictions who manifest a form of posttraumatic stress disorder. Others have developed a habit of aggressive counterpunching that is no more appealing in a young employee than the ruthless accusations of the woke.

As an overarching theme, students educated at Ivy League-type schools have been "socialized to panic over pseudocrises," he lamented. They navel-gaze about "diversity," "inclusion," and other abstract ideas rather than put their nose to the grind on real work.



Reno says he now seeks graduates from smaller, lesser-known — though more dependable — private institutions or from larger state universities or their satellite schools.



The underlying problem for Ivy League students, he suggests, is more than likely a deficit of good role models. Notwithstanding, the result certainly appears to be unproductive employees.

Exactly,... Most companies realize that in this current idiotic, sociopolitical climate that they have to walk a fine line and appear to be "woke" as a cost of doing business. And believe it or not, it has been going on, in some industries, for years now.
