except gabbing to each other in a bubble or safe space about how meanie meanie cis white men are isn't a fucking experiment

well they still do the scientific method

they just twist it to fit their bias

the studies are still written with a hypothesis and etc... abstract... conclusion

science is using a method to discover truth right... its using tools to discover truth, so science can be a lot of things... just depends on what truth you are trying to discover or disprove. Right?

or am i mistaken

You can get to a hypothesis that way sure the bar is very low for hypothesis. But to become a theory even you have to make testable falsifiable statements. Here they fail.

For instance if you say, "gender is a social concept and different to biological sex." what is the standard for falsifiability? I would say that over a .9 correlation (it's actually closer to **.99**) would falsify that statement. Gender studies disagree because they have no standard for falsifiability.

except that's not the scientific process

its hypothesis, observation of controlled and uncontrolled experiments, summary of results, then conclusion

and yeah, the bit about falsifiability is damning

Science is also inherently skeptical

yes of course, sadly this wont stop these people from claiming its real. publishing it into their journals/publications. using it to convince people to a point they cant be convinced otherwise

i think this happens with more things then just gender studies

well at that point it becomes about having faith in the populace's penchant for critical thinking

seems faith is coming up more and more these days

WHY WONT YOU DEBATE ME

Sure the problem is not exclusive to gender studies and exists throughout the social sciences. The standard model is horrible IMHO but I am not *against* social science. I'm in EO Wilson's camp I think we *can* do real social science but to correct it we need to make it conciliant with biology. The same way you cannot do chemistry without recognizing particle physics. Social science should be done within the framework of studying the human species a social primate.

If only Samuel L Jackson wasn't anti-trump, he could do a skit.

"Say impeach again! SAY IMPEACH AGAIN! TAKE ME TO COURT! I DARE YOU, I DOUBLE DARE YOU MOTHAFUCKA!"
