The basic arcs of intelligence and wisdom are present in just about every segment of society. Wu's piece is quality evidence that stupid, unwise people regularly produce what we commonly refer to as 'scholarship.'

Humans are also gangraping mongrels because ducks have corkscrew penises.

And, um, that whole requirement for natural selection thing..

Also, thanks Katie! That was a great (if painful) read!

I guess Third Wave feminists will have to stick to neon hair dye, weed whacker haircuts, nose bull rings the size of frisbees and mere weight to scare aware males and maintain their order. Certainly works for me.

Katie, why are you questioning a woman of color?

And let's be real: Only Hyena's should be allowed to write articles about hyena society.

These are extensions of the appeal to nature fallacy. Where an argument is present with the example of natural order as some inherant virtue. For instance you hear right wingers exclaim how there was no homosexuality in nature as an argument about the un-naturalness of homosexuality. Which is of course idiotic and provably false.

Basically: Don't use "nature" to prove some point about human behaviors.

^^^ haha. Get that everybody? Bitches, like dogs... and "bitchez..." haha.

It's like word play.

Only for morons.

@9 Female Hyenas are not canines, dumbshit. "Bitch" refers to female canines. Hyenas are of the suborder Feliformia. Related to cats. Female cats are called "queens."

So not only are you sexist your stupid as shit.

"Even the highest-ranking male in the group is subservient to the most junior female."
"Siblicide is common, and sisters typically beat out brothers. If they are lucky enough to blossom into adolescence, male hyenas must leave their childhood clan."

So... how is this representative of feminist ideals? This sounds more representative of the worst, dumbest, most reductive, red-pill MRA's mischaracterization of feminist ideals.

And to all the people holding up lobsters and hyenas and whatnot as models for human behavior: knock it off. Do you know what hyenas eat? Roadkill, feces, bugs, pretty much anything they can find. Lobsters live in the filth at the bottom of the harbor and eat, among other things, other lobsters. Nobody wants to trade lives with either of these animals!

Actually, it looks like, unless someone from the reserve wants to overrule the San Diego Zoo, that they are of the family Hyaenidae and are most closely related to mongoose and meerkats.

Kids are called cubs, don’t care enough to keep looking for the rest of it. Video that came to mind when I saw this post was of a hyena munching on a live buffalo stuck in the mud. Looks like there are a few of those.

"A national survey by the Washington Post and Kaiser Family Foundation finds 6 in 10 women call themselves a feminist "

Funny enough, that's about the same as the obesity rate.

Not enough Jackal voices in this piece. Katie clearly wants to eliminate all wildlife in Africa.

Why is a microbiologist branching out to anthropomorphize behavioral ecology of vertebrates? People got water poured on their heads for anthropomorphizing behavioral ecology back in the 70s.

@13 I think you should read the Wikipedia page again. Feliformia is the sub-order which includes cats, maybe you should read things all the way through before you make yourself look like an ass, again...

“The San Diego Zoo”

@13 The response was to our MRA troll at #9 who couldn't even make a coherent drive-by that made sense. His super-fun bon-mot use of "bitches."

Hyenas are not part of the genus canis. There for they can't be "bitches."

Hyaena IS the genus - and there are only two species in it. Not dogs.

Hyena are order carnivora of the suborder feliformia. The sub-order for cats. As are mongoose and meerkats. They are ALL more closely related to cats than dogs.

20

Wow. The trolls are really awful on this piece. Even for trolls.

21

No, she got smart because she thought you might have walked next to her with a pussy hat.

I will defer to the hyena folks.

22

I would align feminists more with Felis catus. They appear slothen, unattached until the need to be fed and react in a hyper-defensive posture when the male of the species gets within a mile of them unless when their tails are lifted high as a message they are ready for the peocreation ritual - which unlike felis catus - end in a court of law.

23

"Pseudopenis" would be another great band name.

24

@so you're saying they are a bunch of pussy's?

And don't worry you little SJW's just go eat something. It's what the feminists do ALL THE TIME!

24: DId you just bust out the "all feminists are lesbians" smear? Dude, that one was retired when #41 was sworn in.

Also, which post are you responding to there? You left out the number, 'bra.

Disregard dupe post. Sorry.

Also telling is how VOX equates female rule over males as “feminist”. I thought feminism was all about gender equality? The current crop of mainstream feminists are highly deluded and by engaging in absurd wishful thinking exercises and/or calculated deception they are further harming their already damaged cause. Do they never stop and think about the inevitable backlash their antics are contributing to and how it is going to affect the people they claim to represent?
