Professor Paglia is like an enthusiastic child who pours her heart out to clueless adults at a dinner party. No one expects such things said, or with such passion. America should be grateful for her scholarship. She is a national treasure. I hope she never shuts up, or caves into the prevailing orthodoxy.

@@KR-nv3ru wow. I've actually read Sexual Personae, but I don't remember the part quoted in the article. Not saying it's not in there, I just think it might be being taken out of context. It seems incongrous with much of what I love about her. She's talked about how all our current trans mania is a sign of a culture in decline, and how in past cultures that embraced what we are now embracing, the intelligentsia all thought themselves very cosmopolitan and "free" as their society slipped into the abyss. I don't know what to think about her views. I will say, in all fairness, the article is very poorly written, just on an aesthetic level, which leads me to wonder if it might be lacking on a journalistic level as well. The quote about "sex play," in the article doesn't specify if she means between adults and kids or kids amongst themselves. Concerning the latter, I will say we've taken steps back in this country, not forward. I must state, for the record, sex between children and adults is CATEGORICALLY wrong and cannot be tolerated. But now we are supposed to pretend children, especially females, have no sexuality at all. So many movies and books where teens were screwing each other could not be made today. Maybe most would say "no big loss" but it shows an almost pathological denial of human sexuality. I remember being 14, 15, 16. All I THOUGHT about was sex and many girls I knew were also just as curious about it. In my teens, getting a girl to jerk me off was the most important thing to me, haha. I would spend hours thinking about the back of a girl's leg or the moment I got to see her belly button. Kids have these thoughts. And every neighborhood had "fast girls," girls who by 14 or 15 had already given head. I don't think we are doing anyone a service by now pretending that stuff doesn't go on. It is, quite literally, natural. But, yeah, again, and I can't stress this enough, if you introduce some perverted 30yo dude into that scenario, that's a crime and should be considered so. I am confused and disappointed by Paglia's stance, but I'm reserving judgment until I fully understand her stance. I'm not willing to rely on that horribly written article. I will say, if her words can be taken at face value, she seems pretty naive. She stresses (which the article left out; I had to look elsewhere for the full quote) that assault and coercion are definitely wrong. But a young boy can't "consent" to sex with an adult. I saw a documentary about this pedo who got away with it for decades and he was totally delusional, telling himself these young boys wanted him. It was pretty obvious to anyone sane that he preyed on troubled boys, manipulated them and got them to a point where they wanted to please him, to keep that male attention their lives were lacking. That's hardly "wanting" to get sodomized by some middle-aged creep. I'm sure none of them realized that once he got what he wanted they were going to lose that attention anyway. If Paglia is really saying what it appears she's saying, it totally ignores how pliable and easily manipulated children can be. And it is also really gross how her championing of it seems to be limited to men getting with boys. Would she feel so nonchalant about a 40yo dude banging a 12yo girl? I doubt it. Again, I'm reserving judgment on Paglia. She's said so, soooo much great, important stuff. I don't know what to say about her views on this. I don't understand people that want to lower the age of consent. If you're an adult, don't get sexual with anyone under 18. How hard is that?? Whatever your kink, there are some young-ass-looking 18yos out there. Goddamn. Keep it over 18, dudes. That's hardly restrictive and "denial of freedom" and all that. If you're 30 or whatever, you really need to screw a 15yo? Give me a break. Go get one of the million 18yos who still look young as fuck. I will say, though, I've heard stories where a dude is 19 and his girl 17, and he gets labeled a sex offender. That's pretty ridiculous. It's horrible, really. We need to employ common sense. You don't magically become a different person the day the calender says you're 18. Paglia is right that there's too much hysteria. I agree with her there. But, again, use common friggin' sense. It's NEVER okay for some dude in his 30's to be doing sexual stuff with a friggin' grade school kid. Jesus.

Lambaste me if you like, but as a younger guy I was entirely unaware of Camille Paglia's brand of feminism. She's more aligned with a stoic worldview, which appeals to me. This is an amazing discussion. I'm so glad KZread's magical algorithm brought me here. Also worried about that, but hey!

I bet she could.😂 I can't even think that fast. She said she saw the Romans as strong makes and it made me think, did she not see Jesus as a strong man? You really need to take a closer look at the picture of Jesus. He did no crimes but yet he was hated. They took him and said he's not part of us. The Romans at the demand of the priest wanted him dead. I will say one thing for the Romans they were going to just flog him and let him go but the priest said no he needs to be put to death to which the Roman said I see no fault in him. He was traded for a murder. He has now been beaten beyond belief. Blood everywhere. Thorns in his head and his flesh ripped off and his dignity stolen from him as his clothes was ripped off and he was naked. He had to carry his own cross( which was very heavy) and walk it all the way to the hill. Mind you he still said not a word. He was spat on yelled at, and cussed at. When he reached the top of that hill he layed down on that cross and had 3 nails put in his hands and feet. He loved us even though all the people then and now scream for his death. They gave him no water but gave him vinegar. Then he was up on the cross and asked his father to forgive all of us because they were stupid. Jesus wasn't a body builder type but he wasn't a weakling. Could I have done all of this? No becaus I am for sure a weakling. Do need anymore proof? He was a strong man 💪🙏. So to say, this is what the feminist hate. Thanks for letting me say my opinion.

Jesus Christ is awesome!!!

I am a Chinese majored in Computer Science. I think the gender study major in the west should never exist as an academic department, and it is toxic to the entire intellectual atmosphere in the University. Note that I strongly support women rights movement in the past centuries. In the Universities in mainland China, we have a department called "School of Marxism studies." They apply model social science theory to research on "Marxism with Chinese characteristics". Their publication is also nice looking, in a serious tone, with all the model social science theories, but their entire goal is to prove: "1. Marxism is right." "2. Marxism with Chinese characteristics is still Marxism." "3. China is still a socialist county on the road to communism." There is tons of Ph.D. and professors in the "School of Marxism studies," however, I think they are so ashamed of their pseudo-science research that few of them dare to speak to STEM student to say: "Look, I am a scientist as well." Awarding that subject with the Ph.D. title is a shame to the entire academia. Why, because if they want to do real research in Marxism, they should do it in a proper philosophy, politics or economics department. Their research can be challenged, disputed, proved or disproved by peers of a different view. In "School of Marxism studies," your conclusion is already there, what you need is to prove it with an eloquent essay. As a rule of thumb, an academic subject should not be established as such that its research (or pseudo-research) is revolving around an orthodoxical ideology. Whether such political ideology is just or unjust is another matter, science and research are entirely about Truth, not ideology. In scientific research, we need to report our funders so that other scientists can know that if there exists a channel of interest to cause potential bias. Confirmation bias and vested interest are fairly common issues in STEM researchers. However, in each STEM field, different sides can argue and dispute over the publications so that any hypothesis is attacked, examined, and finally prove or disproved over time. To summarize: every researcher has his own belief and his own bias; To arrive at truth, in STEM we ask the opposition forces to attack each other vigorously so, in the end, we found the truth that withstands the challenge. In physics, you can prove Newton Classic physics is wrong (or flawed). You will have a huge outcry in the circles, you will have both allies and enemy, but your career and physics research goes on. The simple matter is: the entire field of physics (or any STEM subject) do not depend on the orthodoxy of one particular set of theory or ideal. The subject that is founded on one particular set theory or ideal is religion/political ideology. In women study (or any other other identity politic pseudo-research), the entire founding structure is wrong in the first place. I am not arguing about whether today's women study is good or bad, rational or irrational. I think any Ph.D. in STEM major will realize the fact that the system design of current women studies as an academic research system will cause a massive confirmation bias and industry of vested interest in the field itself. Do you believe some Ph.D. in women study can publish a research hypothesis that white males are the disadvantaged social groups? Do you believe some Ph.D. in women study can publish a research hypothesis that male are inherently more intelligent (by whatever particular measure) than the female, so that men are better at some jobs? The above hypothesis is false IMO, but it is an important thinking game. It proves that there is a "right answer" and "wrong answer" of morality in the research, so some hypothesis will never be raised, and some conclusion will never be drawn. Moreover, graduates from women study virtually cannot find any job except being a teacher of women study or an activist. So if their researchers find that women are under institutional discrimination, the entire field benefit from it by collecting more funds and secure more teaching positions or jobs like "chief diversity officers in google"(As a CS student I burst into tears when I first heard of such title :P ). I am not arguing whether "women are under institutional discrimination" is true or false (I believe the claim is justified in someplace in China), I merely point out that there exist a chain of vested interest here. Most importantly, if someday, someone proves "women are under institutional discrimination" is untrue, if would dis-establish the entire field. Can you imagine the severity of it? The entire field of study will be demolished, that will be equivalent to proving Allah does not exist to Muslim. That is to say, hypotheses or research to disproving an certain argument in “women's study” will be an existential threat to all the Ph.D. in the subject and getting everyone so mad at you because their entire life, entire research, and future career will be fertile.With such a closed loop of positive feedback without negative review, it is therefore never a wonder for me that women study become an echo chamber and radicalized. Looking back in history, we would know that such moral ideal is a bad idea in reach science theory. Darwin theory which portrays a cold-hearted evolution by natural selection is not a welcoming thought in many religious people and defy the sanctity of the men. Many radical political thoughts (which cause mass murders) in modern time are inspired by Darwin theory. However, academia is not church; we should seek truth (however uncomfortable). Darwin can be good Christian when he is a man in daily life, but when he begins to work as a scientist, he must distance himself from what he believes or what he would like the world to be. In research, the scientist ceases to be a man; he becomes the embodiment reason itself. After the research, he recovers his morality and ideal. A scientist may then decide to hide the uncomfortable discover, or burn it because it will bring injustice when misused. I think many people outside of STEM emphasis on too much on humanity, too little on the reason. They do not realize the importance of this duality of personality when discovering the truth require our cold-hearted rationalism, and hiding the harmful truth from public require our warm-hearted humanity. I think every true scholar who is interested in women study, with the dream of obtaining truth, should leave that particular echo chamber. Real researchers on women’s issue should go back to common political science or sociology department where there is not a particular agenda or central ideology. Their theory may be completely right, but it needs to put outside of the echo chamber and face strict scrutiny to as befitting the academic standard. Having a feminist reviewing the paper of another feminist will not produce any real science.

I think it is fair to compare it with a marxist department. Paglia points out around 47:00 that a certain form of political correctness has taken the place of religion in the western world. The validity of an area of study such as theology, feminism, marxism, psychoanalysis, etc. is largely empirical or pragmatic, as in the sense of the pragmatic argument of the usefulness of believing in God by philosopher William James : "If I am lost in the woods and starved, and find what looks like a cow-path, it is of the utmost importance that I should think of a human habitation at the end of it, for if I do so and follow it, I save myself." Even though pure science lays out the objective laws based on logic, the human applications of anything is often applied (successfully or not) by technicians or non-specialists who must use their own subjectivity to reach their personal goals and the goals of the group/organization. Even accounting is not a real science in the sense that STEMS are, but since they perform tasks that are useful to society, very few people will question their right to remain as autonomous university departments. While I don't agree that women studies should not receive funding as autonomous department, I do believe that their activities should be monitored and that prospective students should be allowed to see all the possible red flags before they sign up to study with them.

There are some days we're we read feminist propaganda and girls can give their opinions while boys have to shut up and not participate at all, with the purpose of giving them a space to talk to compensate for all those times where they can't. It's sickening. I have to mesure my opinions a lot in orther not to lose my job. I feel thretened by how prevalent this ideology has become in schools.

1:09:29 the comment from the audience was a perfect example of what people are reacting against. You can tell she wasn't pondering anything specifically said by the speaker, but instead immediately thought "these ideas are not allowed." Her "question" was nothing but a quick dismissal, as she stood there blankly and read off P.C. bullet points that had nothing to do with the discussion. What she did is what all part of the SJW play book : silence someone you disagree with by invoking race, and then proclaim that the speaker's position of privilege makes their ideas invalid. All they know how to do is silence ideas and maintain status quo. I can see the denseness and lack of independent thinking among this questioner as well as the cross armed girls sitting behind her.

David Parry Anti feminist is nothing more than a term that has been hurled at anyone who questions or criticizes radical second wave feminism, along with rape supporter and victim blamer, in an attempt to silence them. Believe me, there was a lot to criticize. It was and is hated by most women outside of the upper middle class, delusional, university bubble. I was born in 1975 and during the first 20 years of my life I watched as radical feminists/the women's movement destroyed the lives of more women, men and children than most can ever begin to imagine. Several well know second wave Radfems are/were visibly mentally ill. This was obvious to anyone who watched or listened to them. Children could spot it easily in the 1970s and 80s. Dworkin... insane! It was humiliating to watch her be praised, in the name of women, for sharing her paranoid schizophrenic rape delusions on national tv every other week. Gloria Steinem... psychopath. The woman is a complete psychopath who should be under a jail. It is a very sick and destructive wing of feminism that always, very publicly, creates multiple panics/hysteria's, over reaches during the chaos, attempts to control everything around it and leaves a measurable path of destruction in its wake. I've watched it happen multiple times now, and have watched the public reject it multiple times as well.

God I love her. She is exciting and fascinating.

"The 'male gaze' is such a crock." Haha, I adore you, Ms. Paglia. As a reader of and contributor to literary magazines, I can tell you modern feminism and its concepts have a real stranglehold on literary fiction. Most fiction editors are women now, as are at least half of the literary agents. And many are very open about their feminism and the fact that they're interested only in stories that support their views. They're not hiding it. I actually had a female editor ascribe "the male gaze" to the protagonist of a story I submitted, and I suppose she was putting the term on me as well, let's be real. The male lead was highly critical of a particular woman. To be honest, if there was a hero in the piece it was him, and she the villian. Full disclosure, part of his issue with her was her radical feminism and infantile politics. But, what, that's a no-no? A writer just CAN'T be critical of those things? Not if you ask this particular fiction editor anyway (of a fairly well-known, perhaps second-tier literary magazine...I mean, it wasn't The Atlantic, or even Boulevard, but it wasn't some zine printed in someone's kitchen; if you're a literary fiction writer actively trying to get published, you've heard of it). Her rejection slip read something like (I'm trying my damndest to get this right, so as not to inadvertently lie, but I swear it was something pretty close to this) "the way he considers some women worthy in his eyes and others unworthy is offensive...his whole attitude toward her reeks of the male gaze." (Again, not an exact quote, but I swear it's pretty close.) I don't see how anything near actual "art" can be produced, certainly not by "cis" male writers, if their main concern has to be never having a male character have negative opinions of a female character...unless, of course, he's a villian who gets his comeuppance or is shown to be an idiot or a hypocrite. The one other time it's acceptable, from what I've seen, is if the female character is meant to represent "traditional values." Then every character in the story, males included, can shit all over her verbally, probably even literally, depending on how "dangerous" the journal tells itself it is. Meanwhile, most of my female characters are awesome, strong women, if I do say so myself. But I often write about relationships and sex, honestly and from a straight-male perspective. So, yeah, this "male gaze" shit is killing me, haha. I've managed to get some stuff published, but it'd probably be easier if I just went for the headpats and made all the women brave heroes or beyond-reproach victims on their way to being brave heroes and all the men betas or abusers. I just can't do it, though. I'm fucked.

+hypno I disagree. If you don't find what someone said worthy of applause, then don't. To then still applaud, is an insult to the intellect, as if someone like Paglia needs fake validation. +Geebz Yeah, that was ...embarassing.

The more I listen to this woman Paglia, the more I feel admiration and respect for her. At the absolute least, I would say, that one can admire her for her somewhat fearless 'free thinking, a quality that is all the more admirable in our current climate. I have purposefully not just 'liked' this but saved it to 'Watch Again; and I think that perhaps next time I will try and watch it with somebody else so that they too can benefit and learn from what is being said. Personally, I respect more or less any intellectual who I feel has made a genuinely earnest attempt to uncover (and subsequently disseminate) the truth, and again, in the context of the current climate such a quality shines forth with even greater potency!! Naturally, the fact that much of what she says seems to make considerable sense to me just increases and improves my respect for her even more! Particularly considering the pertinence of the subject matter which she covers. I would LOVE to interview her!* Her point regarding how the sort of mainstream emergence of transexual phenomena is indicative of a decaying empire/eociety feels to me to fit extremely well and has helped me make a great deal of sense of that which previously made SO little sense to me (and is indicative I would say of just how deeply she has researched into and considered this subject!) Moreover, the notion that she puts forward positing how the lack of orthodox religion has potentially created a vacuum which has been filled with / satisfied by the emergence of the pseudo religion of 'political correctness' really impresses me (actually 'impressed' feels like some kind of an understatement). TO surmise, I am DAMNED IMPRESSED by this woman, and I think that perhaps we could learn a great deal from her. Particularly those who are unfamiliar with what we may refer to as the 'dissident position' on these issues. Finally, as a fairly smart chappie, quite a number of people have suggested to me that I go to Uni, something that would have been overwhelmingly likely I suspect had poor health not put a spanner of epic proportions into my life. I must say, it hardly occurred to me that I would ever be in any way glad, pleased or relieved that I had not attended. I always figured that had I been well enough I most certainly would have done! Or that the financial burden imposed would be THE sole principle that would have deterred me somehow! Had my health (or lack thereof) not precluded me from doing so. However, listening to the likes of Peterson / Murray (amongst others) discuss the state of the universities and their apparent insipid attempts at propagandising people, I seriously wonder whether being unable to go was in some truly and unimaginably unexpected fashion, some kind of saving grace. Who would have thought it eh!? A born intellectual actually somehow GLAD that he was unable to attend university! Crikey! What a trip! All this stuff is very very concerning, and we all owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to the like of Douglas Murray, of Peterson, and of Camile Paglia (amongst others of course) for performing the true role of the intellectual in society; to learn and subsequently disseminate the truth, and as Bertrand Russel wisely advised, to do so without regard for that which was socially or politically expedient and so on! Where are all the others speaking out!? Where are all those OXBRIDGE educated types (for instance) performing the role that they were developed for, at least in theory!? Looks like it might just be COURAGE/INTEGRITY (or something to that effect) which is the limiting factor here rather than just simply intellect). As Murray basically pointed out, there just do not appear to be a great number of grown-ups in the room! Which aside from being just darn sad if not downright depressing, places a disproportionate amount of challenging work on the shoulders of the few courageous enough to do this crucial and potentially pivotal work. Now THAT might just have been the longest KZread comment I ever left. Guess I had a lot to say. FYI, if anyone is interested, I will be, once I muster the courage etc (as well as the space on my phone's hardrive, the evidently harder obstacle), potentially be starting a KZread channel of my own. Although as a depressive loser (at present) it may consist more of borderline rude jokes about 'your mum' (I say that in inverted commas because obviously I would NEVER make jokes about YOUR ACTUAL mother, as I would truly hate for her to stop sucking my ****; then again; there's always your dad (note the lack of inverted commas in this instance).

Wow I’ve listened to this many times but the portion about end of life contemplation and materialism is so so powerful. Young people listen up! I bought the lie and totally missed the boat on my contemporaries as potential mates. You only get one chance at that time in life - it gets exponentially more difficult after 25 even to find suitable mates. Don’t let these ridiculous dating apps fool you- those who marry young grow together and wed their lives and ambitions earlier so it is easier to develop your life plan once you have identified your partner. It is possible of course to find a partner slightly older but think about it- you stop going out as much as you age- it isn’t a natural part of life any longer as it is when you are young.

Praglia Vs Zizek, moderated by Shapiro... (and scared antelopes video in the background). TNT.

Loved this, brought up some interesting points and things to think about.

I think what Camille is pointing to, is that in order for 2nd wave feminism to triumph, it had to disconnect women from all other women that had existed prior to the 1960's as a source of wisdom to reference when dealing with social or personal problems.

It doesn't take a manic person to recognize one, but it helps! LOL Love ya Camille!

about the victim blaming thing. if your kid kept going out at night walking through crime infested areas, would you tell them to stop doing that? is that victim blaming? whatever the criminal did is wrong AND you shouldnt be walking through the areas at night. two things can be right at the same time. no nuance....

If I knew there were Lions outside on the path my child needed to go in order to get to school, I would tell her to take a different path or at least tell her to only travel outside in a group. If she still went out alone taking the previously said path I warned her against, and she thus gets eaten by lions. Yes I’m blaming the victim.

“As an atheist; I’m interested in religion.” This line shows just how much of an intellectual she really is. Even though she may disagree with it, she shows that in order to understand the other side you must be informed about where they are coming from in order to have a chance of having a meaningful conversation with them.

the friends looking at each other at 23:00 made my day.

Such an incredible wisdom! She's absolutely right! yes, we need to teach ancient history, it is too much focus on the present, too much obsession with "comfort and safety" (what ever that means today).

Society should encourage Chivalry; not to put women down but to give males an ideal that looks at females as someone to be admired and woo'ed when it is acceptable by the female. I was raised that if a a female rejects advances that is that, move on, they have a right to say no.

Yes they do, however, society faces grave issues as women only find a small percentage of men arousing, and once more men wake up and are less willing to marry women post thirty (they'll see the epiphany phase for what it really is), then you'll have more cat ladies, less stable families, and less motivated men.

There was a Brazilian philosopher who mentioned this also !

This is seven years old and Camille is running through the vocabulary of tofays talking points. She is very prescient in here reading of cultural issues. I'd like to see Camille and Mary Harrington having a chat.

There is also the issue of "Retroactive Consent Denial" with Women. A Women can fully give consent, "thoroughly engage", and then change her mind midway or after the fact, and it is as if she never gave consent at all.

She speaks sense. The problem here as I see it, is that this woman no longer has any sexual agency, and so her views being given to young women who still have the opportunity to optimise hypergamy, are likely to understandably fall on deaf ears.

God Claire’s comments late on: “if you make your life risk free and safe you may face no risks but you will not be free. You can be safe, locked up looked after and not allowed out and you will be safe. But you will not be human, you will not be free” is bang on the money! If only our leaders understood the importance of this point maybe how we ended up handling Coronavirus would have been significantly different!

1:14:25 "When I go out". Naturally I do not have more context than this, but if she refers to clubbing, this would be a very naive question. Why do men go out? Because they want to have fun and dance and drink with their mates? No. Men go out because of 2 reasons: (1) they are either looking for women, or (2) are repressing a stressful life, event and/or memory. If you don't want to be approached by guys, but you like "going out", go to concerts. Men who go to concerts go there because they want to see their favourite band. Go to a dance club. Men who join a Salsa club do so because they enjoy dancing, not picking up women. If you enjoy drinking a lot and getting wasted (I don't judge), invite some friends over and stay at home. It's cheaper, safer, and generally more fun. If you don't want men to approach you, don't go to that one scene that is all about looking for potential mates...
