Lexi,

The fact is that Gender Theory was proved to be a massive fraud because it was completely fudged and didn't pass muster for sociological research.

There is no evidence to support it at all.

That means that the researchers and pundits who used the 'research' to make cases for research grants and for policy changes based on the 'findings' are charlatans and defrauded the taxpayers.

There are many millions involved that could have been put to better purposes than maintaining their careers and lifestyle. They are common criminals who should be fronting courts for their crimes.

A woman shoplifts a blouse and fronts a court. But these clever rogues obtain millions by deceit from bogus claims and can avoid charges because it could embarrass politicians who took their advice at face value. Apparently it is also politically incorrect for western news media to report the story too. They have done enormous damage to the credibility of science.

Dear onthebeach,

Academic research is such a broad spectrum and
theories are tested, verified or disproved all the time
as new discoveries are made.

I don't agree with your reference to "fraudsters."
People are only "fraudsters" when they deliberately
set out to lie.

Anyway, I shall leave you to your opinion.
I shall remain with mine.

I think that there has been enough evidence presented over a long period including from the writings of those in the Gender industry to demonstrate the intent to deceive.

Eg onthebeache's premise is pretty well proven.

Dear RObert,

I don't agree. Academic research has a multitude
of layers - and a multitude of opinions. One
will always find researchers who are unethical
and are motivated by their private agendas. This
does not mean that one should tarnish everyone
because of the actions of a few.

See you on another thread.

It is Gender Theory that was proved to be horses' apples.

Where does that leave the thousands of feminist academics who should have realised it was the proverbial crock of [*bleep*] and are still making a tidy living riding the gravy train because of it? Forty years and more of a lie.

Any feminist academic worth her pay would be asking probing questions, right? Then again, maybe not if her career and department depended on it. Therein lies the rub. It is not good enough.
