Postgenderism:Beyond the Gender Binary
http://ieet.org/archive/IEET-03-PostGender.pdf
Freaky stuff!!
Postgenderism is an extrapolation of ways that technology is eroding the biological, psychological and social role of gender, and an argument for why the erosion of binary gender will be liberatory. Postgenderists argue that gender is an arbitrary and unnecessary limitation on human potential, and foresee the elimination of involuntary biological and psychological gendering in the human species through the application of neurotechnology, biotechnology and reproductive technologies. Postgenderists contend that dyadic gender roles and sexual dimorphisms are generally to the detriment of individuals and society. Assisted reproduction will make it possible for individuals of any sex to reproduce in any combinations they choose, with or without “mothers” and “fathers,” and artificial wombs will make biological wombs unnecessary for reproduction…
“The heart of women’s oppression is her childbearing and child-rearing roles… To assure the elimination of sexual classes requires the revolt of the underclass (women) and seizure of control of reproduction:… so the end goal of the feminist revolution must be unlike that of the first feminist movement, not just the elimination of male privilege but of the sex distinction itself; genital differences between human beings would no longer
matter. (Firestone, 1970: 12)”

WTF???? That is seriously weird, and yes, freaky!
@Chris
Seems like a large part of transhumanism is weird and freaky.
They can keep the transhumanism. Icky and nightmarish. Unnatural.
I love the laser gun story. I want one of those things in miniature to replace my pistol. Not that pistols aren’t great, they are, but they’re noisy and messy and the ammo is pricey these days.
