lol cisheteropartriarchal has to be a made up word designed to make right wingers mad.

There's lots o' quacks in academia. That's been the case forever. Are we gonna pray for god to help every time one of them says something dumb?

Thank you, so do we all.
But you injected a couple of things that didn't need to be, especially if you agree that the guy is an SJW doosh.
Why do you have to be so contrary about everything?
Trolling you for the lols

Never heard of that term in my life.
Aren’t cis and hetereo the same?

Or can you have non-cis hetereos as well?
Or cis gays? But if a cis is gay, doesn’t that mean it’s actually hetereo?

God damn.
My brain just melted.

Cis hetero - Most common, "standard" person. Arnold Schwartzenegger, Pamela Anderson Lee.

Cis homo - Most common, "standard" homosexual person. Elton John, Ellen Degeneres.

Trans hetero - Most common transsexual people. Man becomes woman and has sex with men. IDK example.

Trans homo - Man becomes woman and has sex with women in a lesbian relationship. Caitlyn Jenner.

Throwing in the "pre-op" vs "post-op" dichotomy just makes it even more complex and bizaare. A pre-op MTF transexual lesbian is...strange. These are the men with male genitals who dress like women, go into womens' bathrooms and then lust after the "other" women in there as is "her" right as any other lesbian woman can do...basically just a pervert in a dress.

The mud it covered the ground
And the confusion made the brain go 'round
I grabbed a boat and I went abroad
And in Baden Germany asked Sigmund Freud
He said son, from your sad face remove the grouch
Put the body up on the couch
I can see from your frustration a neurotic sublimation, hey
Love and hate is psychosomatic
Your Rorschach shows that you're a peri pathetic
It all started with a broken sibling
In the words of the famous Rudyard Kipling

He said the woman piaba and the man piaba
And the Ton Ton call baka lemon grass
The lily root, gully root, belly root uhmm
And the famous grandy scratch scratch

- Belafonte -

Retarded, you are.


In a few years when this fad has passed by I'm going to remind all of you weirdos who were saying a man can be a woman.

The Kinks and Lou Reed were singing about in the 70’s.

I can't tell you the last time I solved a quadratic or integrated something over three dimensions.

I also can't tell you exactly how the "debit" and "credit" system works in accounting. See THAT math would be useful but they don't teach it in school.
A mathematics course should be concerned primarily with mathematics, which hones the analytical thinking skills required to study a myriad of subjects.

If you want to learn accounting then take an accounting course.

Well, the guy in the article is a dumbass, what can I say.

But I feel compelled to point out this from the article: "​​Leyva is an assistant professor of Mathematics Education, a Department of Teaching and Learning faculty affiliate, and works for the Department of Gender & Sexuality Studies."

So this guy is not really a mathematics professor, and he may not even have a degree in mathematics beyond a BS. I would guess that he has a doctor of education degree (EdD), which you can get from a claw machine at Dave & Buster's.

It's the Ed.D people who inflicted the New Math on the US half a century ago, to disastrous effect. And since then these idiots have been pinballing from one half-baked fad to the next, to the point where it's become a wonder to me how any learning happens in the classroom at all.

Say "Maths Class"... 10 times fast and you'll see how stupid Maths sounds.

You can't do it.
All you'll end up with is a lisp.
