Debunking Feminist "Science"

Scientific American has published an article on David C. Page, who has spent a large part of his career debunking some of the proclamations of feminist "science."

A couple of worthy quotes from the article:

"The very idea of investigating the Y chromosome offends those feminists who believe that it serves as nothing more than a subterfuge to promulgate an inherent male bias in biology. And, in Page's view, some reputable scientists have even pandered to these sentiments by writing books and papers that predict the extinction of men--or the Y's disappearance."

and

"Biologist Jennifer A. Marshall Graves of the Australian National University in Canberra argues that gene conversion in the palindromes represents a form of 'genetic masturbation' that may not only fail to inhibit deleterious mutations but may even speed the process of the chromosome's decline. Page's terse response: 'Ah, rhetoric and theory unburdened by experimental data.'"
