72. You're denying the distribution of labor in human reproduction is unfair?
I can see where the charge of sexism against nature might be a bit extreme, but not the inherent injustice of the inequality of the sexes in childbearing. And I think even the charge of sexism has merit, not against nature, but against the childbearing culture that passively accepts this disparity as a given that requires no further discussion. There are political consequences to this view, and men have tended to benefit from them. That is sexist.
