- A society's sexuality is the single most indicative marker of civilizational health - a reality first discovered by anthropologist JD Unwin in his book Sex & Culture, and later detailed by scholar Camille Paglia in her book Sexual Personae
This is a few years old though, isnt it? I haven't seen anything from Camille for ages, and she is sorely missed in this era of madness!
I have been wondering why she has vanished. I miss her musings.
Probably vanished from all media!
She NEEDS to come back ❤
@@edelgar33she was and is a brave woman, an impressive and highly intelligent woman who should speak often!
I imagine she has tenure somewhere or a literary agent who took her aside and told her to shut up or there would be consequences.
Camille Paglia is so refreshing, if only more feminists could discover this source of wisdom.
People who call themselves feminist today are usually not feminists. Don't use that term in them the same way liberal shouldn't be used to describe the left. There's nothing liberal about woke.
Camille is actually a true traditional feminist (in a positive way) - more young women should listen to what she has to say.
She's a feminist. The feminists who claim to be feminist today are not.
She is one of those people, that even though I disagree with much of what she says, I still find fascinating and compelling. Christopher Hitchens was, for me, also one of those people.
I love her.
Why you should be worried:
Name ONE culture that managed to pull itself out of collapse?
But it's sort of hard to identify a collapse that didn't materialize, in hindsight, no?
A feminist if you can truly call her that, that did her scholarly digging and intellectual work who came to her senses. Maybe because shes got a more masculine temperament she can think use reason, logic and have a amoral compass to dissect philosophical dilemmas. This is rare for a woman to do without bias, unabashed empathy or raw emotion.
Framing this as a masculine vs feminine thing makes it seem as though you have contempt for femininity. Paglia is a lesbian who has sometimes identified as bisexual throughout the years but she ultimately can't fall in love with men, and has stated that she's never once identified as a woman. Her work was mostly inspired by the fact that in the past she never felt she fit in with others and has referred to herself in at least a few interviews as a mutant. Would you really prefer for most women to be like that?
Anyone know what the original link for this is? Or remember the guy’s name or channel name?
Ah. Nick Gillespie, Reason TV. From 8 years ago.
@@Libertariun thank you
She is a Smart woman…!
She even considers the climate change agenda "a sentimental myth unsupported by evidence."
A true Liberal.
Wasp, which she hated, had room for everyone else, no one has room for wasp now, great work Camilla
I would be interested to hear Camille respond to this question: "Do you believe that the dominant WASP leadership (as demonstrated in the Universities of your youth) were better and more tolerant of freedom of expression? Or do you find that the Jewish and/or diversity stronghold on academia has benefitted the educational system in a more beneficial way? I suspect that the answer that she gives now would be very different from the answer that she would have given 30 yrs ago.
She sounds like a Cartman, from the South Park
Okay 🆗🆗😂
But,she is spot on, on everything!
I really just wish she was against porn and prostitution.
Isn't she? That's very disappointing.
@Claire90409 no she isn't. Camille is a FANTASTIC woman...but not perfect. I love about 70% of what she says.
I had no idea that this was what she sounded like.
All her criticisms of others are really true about her. She's narcissistic and can't bear to give up power.
No.
Nonsense.
This woman is a Legend❤
She paved the way for the destruction and now complains. Pottery
You seem to think that original feminism has anything to do with modern feminism. They're not feminist, feminist wouldn't say trans women are women. They wouldn't support self ID if they were true feminists.
Amelia Earhart would be turning in grave at the state of feminism today.
Woke people are not liberal, they're not for freedom, they're not for women or men, they're nothing they can to be. They're fascists.
Without a doubt.
In her defense (and as a Conservative Christian, I never thought I would in a position of defending Camille Paglia), we were all blind-sided. Whether on the Left or the Right, if one claimed back then to revere freedom (freedom of thought, freedom, of expression, freedom to be one's self), then one tended to adopt a "live and let live " philosophy based on good faith. Unfortunately, when one side decides then to abandon that good faith, and to insist that "No, it isn't enough for you to allow me to be me. You must now accept me, celebrate me, encourage your children to be like me, and to create a world that reflects ONLY me", that system collapses. I suspect that, in many ways, classical Liberals were almost as surprised as the Right that freedom can only exist when everyone plays by the same rules. Alas.
Huh? She's always been an "outsider" from the mainstream Feminism..... And she's being critical of the same issues since the 80s.... Jesus.
