Insanity! women arguing over whether it is politically acceptable to fuck
\nmen, and whether your lesbianism must be politically motivated to be valid… if
\nyou believe that you might have been "born lesbian" then you have betrayed women
\nand embraced your patriarchal masters! Of course the reality is that none of
\nthem have the urge to
\nactually
\nunderstand the topic they are speaking of<\/a>, because a little knowledge might
\nblow their politics away.<\/p>\n

"Were lesbian\/gayness, genetic or inherited traits\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6. Since we do not
\n\treproduce ourselves, any lesbian\/gay gentotype would die out really quickly.
\n\tYet reliably, generation after generation there was are, about ten percent
\n\tof the population. (In models of pathology, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153causes\u00e2\u20ac? are n area of large
\n\tconcern. Certainly the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153cause\u00e2\u20ac? of homosexuality is always up for examination
\n\tand yet we never ever question the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153cause\u00e2\u20ac? of heterosexuality. ) I believe
\n\tthat a biological determinant has built in properties that argue strongly
\n\tagainst such any \u00e2\u20ac\u0153innateness\u00e2\u20ac? to homosexuality." –

The thread is a
\ngreat read<\/a>, not only for the inherent insanity of the position (that there
\nis no innate drive to heterosexuality in the human species) but for the
\nviciousness with with the faithful attach each other as heretics. The radfem
\nphilosophy is so vague, so open to interpretation and so based on victim hood
\nthat it is trivial for purges and personal attacks to be clothed as political
\nideology.<\/p>\n

In other words,
\nlike every
\nother radfem discussion it comes down to cliques of women attacking other
\ncliques of women as being politically ignorant <\/a>and trying to assert
\npatriarchal power.<\/p>\n

"It began with a statement from you Heart, that there are *political*
\n\tconsequences for supporting any arguement that lesbianism is innate or has
\n\tbiological origins. You said RF has to be not just hard but ‘very hard’ on
\n\tthat view even when it is being expressed by lesbians themselves." –
