The
theory that women possess talent equal to men's is but
another
symptom of the profound decadence of the contemporary West. In fact, women are not remotely as gifted as
men in the higher pursuits, primarily because genius is exclusive to the
primary gender.
Physics?
Philosophy?
Cosmology?
Classical music?
Painting
and sculpture?
Mathematics?
To
pretend that women ever have, or ever could equal men in these activities is
simply a politically correct fashion, like the belief in racial equality, that
in the face of truth will not be able to sustain itself much longer.
I
once reduced a dinner party to helpless laughter by asking the
attendees
to imagine a female Newton, Plato, Wagner, etc.
In
the long run, it is the anti-experiential desire for an absolute
across-the-board global egalitarianism that will kill our civilization.
America
was doomed from the start owing to its commitment to that preposterous
ideology, but the decay and impending collapse of Britain is a real tragedy.

Drole. Not even a feminist would wish to claim that the lady writers you mention, garden club members, could compare with Dostoevsky, Faulkner, the Greeks, etc. (The astonishing cultural achievement of the Greeks was very largely owing to the absence of female participation.)
You say that my contribution is ignorant rubbish, and then compare me to the very brilliant Phillipa Foot. Conflicting statements such as these may tend to reflect pessimistically on your own philosophic prospects. In any case, the very last I want is Phillipa's Foot "right up my alley."
