A 22-year old female University of Utah student reported her business professor to campus administrators for, among other things, assigning too many historical texts written by influential male economists of the past.

“I understand the importance of studying the work of those before us and the importance of context,” wrote the student in a complaint to the university’s bias reporting system,
where she labeled the professor’s transgressions “derogatory,” “degrading,” and “intimidating,” thereby causing a “hostile learning environment.”

The report also accused the professor of frequent sexist language, but the bulk of the complaint centered on his assigned readings for the business course.

In the female student’s bias report, she stated that while her professor “never applauded these philosophers on their sexist beliefs,” he “never outright said they were wrong” and “continued to place them upon a pedestal.”

She continued that she began to “fear” his sexist banter and said she “also began to fear the readings and I could not even finish one assigned reading due to its clear sexist message.”

Fair is fair. The professor never objected to her attending classes in a straight jacket.

I can't believe those Evangelical Christian Right Wing Whackos who indoctrinated such crazy ideas.

Thankfully, Trump won't be President forever. When Gillibrand becomes the first Female President, all of these Patriarchal ideas will be gone!

So have the professor assign Female Authors for the female students, but insist that any class presentations be topless.

The emotional diarrhea nozzle is more important than the brain. Spray one at will, you never have to train the other.
