Notice that if such a statement were made about a race rather than a gender,
it would be called racist. Since it is a derogatory comment about one gender,
that makes it a sexist comment, which is as reprehensible as a racist comment.

Useless hypotheses, etc.:

analog computing, cultural relativism, GAC, Cyc, Eliza, and ego.

     but an infinite number of times, and will continue to do so forever.

We won't move into a better future until we debunk religiosity, the most
regressive force now operating in society.
