“Unbelieving women”

Unbelieving women either compete for the attention of men through outlandish messages that communicate some variation of ‘easy lay,’ or in the grip of resentment they give up the endeavor entirely, which is how we get lumberjack dykes. The former is an avid reader of Cosmopolitan and thinks she knows 15K ways to please a man in bed. The latter is just plain surly about the fact that there even are any men.

  1. Is there any rule of logic Wilson hasn’t violated? Routinely?

    BIFURCATION: (either-or, black or white, all or nothing fallacy) assumes that two categories are mutually exclusive and exhaustive, that is, something is either a member of one or the other, but not both or some third category.

    1. @Janet: False Dilemma (same thing)
      Since he teaches logic & rhetoric, it’s safe to assume he’s familiar with the fallacy. And if he knows the fallacy, then he knows his dilemma is false — which raises the question, Why would Douglas Wilson deliberately state something that he knows is false?

    2. “Why would Douglas Wilson deliberately state something that he knows is false?”

      HAHAHA. Is it because it’s a day of the week that ends with a ‘y?’

  3. Rachel, right you are. And to complete your sentence: Because the rules (even of logic) don’t apply to him, only to everyone else especially his perceived enemies.
