The anti-scientific speech of the socialist minister Ana Redondo against men

In Spain, it has become commonplace for radical feminism to say the most outrageous things, even from positions of political power.

From abortion to gender ideology: the anti-scientific nonsense of the left wing
The anti-scientific message of a socialist leader: “They do not abort people”

The Europa Press news agency yesterday published a report on a speech given by the Minister of Equality, the Socialist Ana Redondo, at the summer courses organized by the Complutense University of Madrid in San Lorenzo de El Escorial. According to the agency, the minister stated that men and women are "radically different species, who don't have much in common", and also called for help in "evolving" the male gender in social and emotional matters.

Likewise, Redondo said about men that "they are still anchored in privileges that aren't really privileges at all, because denying feelings or weakness is very harmful to any human being." Furthermore, according to the same report, the minister asserted that in prehistoric societies men and women had the same social value and power was distributed in a "practically equal" way.

The agency doesn't explain whether there were any public reactions to the minister's barrage of nonsense. Redondo's statements are an exhibition of anti-scientific thinking, something unacceptable in a minister of a democratic country but which the Spanish left has already made commonplace, as I explained here three years ago. The paradox is that these anti-scientific positions often contradict each other. Last year, the Ministry of Health, controlled by the communist party Sumar, denied the genetic differences between men and women, a denial that forms part of the tenets of gender ideology defended by the left. Now, the socialist Minister of Equality claims that we are not only different but belong to different species.

Of course, Ana Redondo is mistaken. Men and women not only belong to the same species, Homo sapiens, but also to the same subspecies, Homo sapiens sapiens. The other known subspecies of Homo sapiens (Neanderthalensis, Rhodesiensis, and Idaltu) disappeared long ago. Therefore, the minister has fabricated pseudoscientific claims and made them at an event organized by a university, and so far there has been no word from that institution refuting the absurdities uttered by Redondo.

Let's imagine for a moment what would happen if a politician said such things about Black people, North Africans, or people from other ethnic groups. Logically, such statements would cause an uproar, we would hear accusations of racism (quite rightly) and there would be very justified calls for that politician to be dismissed, especially if they held a ministerial post. However, when anti-scientific nonsense comes from the ranks of the left, the reactions are usually minimal, even when that nonsense is directed against half of the human population.

With her statements yesterday, Ana Redondo has openly displayed her hatred and lack of respect for billions of people simply for having a penis. This minister should not remain in office for another day, and if she continues, it is simply because Pedro Sánchez (who, according to Redondo's theories, belongs to that less evolved species into which the minister categorizes men) agrees with her absurd claims.
