I am not digressing from trying to articulate what a morally grave matter might be. I intend to resume with specifying what it might mean to say that male masturbation is a grave matter. Focusing on male masturbation involves using a sexist moral theory. A sexist moral theory presupposes that some sexual obligations and privileges are prefaced with \u201cbecause you are a woman\u201d and \u201cbecause you are a man.\u201d I defend using a sexist morality in my book* although I did not there point out the misogyny of a non-sexist morality. <\/p>\n
This observation of this post is also a critique of the moral theories used to justify abortion on demand. See Banning Abortions Might Undercut Prolife Goals <\/a> It also supports a much earlier post that it is the prochoice camp and not the prolife groups that are waging a war on women. See HHS Mandate as a War on Women<\/a> .<\/p>\n A rational person valuing autonomy could not consistently will that nature should be designed so that half the people seeking to satisfy a extremely strong inclination risk losing their autonomy. I will not digress to any discussion of Kantian moral theory. I want only to note that I need to set aside much of Kantian moral theory which has influenced me greatly. Kantian morality is non-sexist. The brief allusion to Kantian reasoning brings out a \u201chatred\u201d of a non-sexist morality for the reality that nature has created men and women; more exactly a hatred for human sexual reproduction.<\/p>\n I won’t cite many implicitly misogynistic pleas, many by women, that we cannot have full sexual equality until women have the possibility of the same sexual freedom men allegedly have. I sketch an argument without details of daily between the sexes. The argument expresses opposition to women as they are naturally. With “women as they are naturally,” I refer to the way women were before birth control pills enabled millions, if not billions, of women to be infertile through most of their reproductive years. Implicitly, I think, Paul VI’s 1968 Humanae Vitae<\/em> condemned use of The Pill because it would be a major step toward suppressing femininity.<\/p>\n (1)If morality is non-sexist, then sexual activity should not place obligations on women which are not placed on men. * Confronting Sexual Nihilism<\/em> Oklahoma City, 2014 A free copy of my book is available by emailing me at kielkopf.1@osu.edu<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I am not digressing from trying to articulate what a morally grave matter might be.
