And Sisyphus Shall Lead Them

It humors me that I once saw a comic likening the struggle of feminists to Sisyphus, where a fat, CEO type man kicked the laboring woman’s boulder down the hill she’d just struggled up. I enjoyed the comic tremendously because the author seemed totally unaware that Sisyphus is a warning. He is being punished by the pagan gods, and those suffering as he suffered are likewise judged by the irrational caprice of nature represented in those ancient spirits.

Sisyphus is altogether a perfect image for feminism; the climax for which they fight is always the dissolution of their goal. Their ideal is contradictory, for in wanting the elevation of woman, they are claiming that woman is less than man, and in demanding perfect equality with the male of the species, they demand the erasure of the category of woman entirely.

Reality punishes nonsense, and feminism suppresses reality, that is, it teaches people to lie. You cannot make any obvious statement: say that men are faster and stronger than women and you’ll hear a chorus shout back “But some women…” Yes, some women are exceptional, that is, abnormal. Prodigies do not make the rule, and the fact of a bearded woman does not mean that women are bearded.

There are two types of people in this world, those who accept reality and those who fight it. One of them is happy, and one of them is Sisyphus.
