The Modern Sexist Scale is a joke

If the Modern Sexist Scale is in any way representative of modern social science, these "sciences" are in deep trouble.

The only thing the Modern Sexist Scale really measures it the extent to which the surveyed agrees with the authors of the survey about som gender political issues.

Nonetheless the scale is used seriously in social psychology "research".

The Scale relies on the false assumpation that Modern Western societies are pervaded by hostility towards and only towards women.

So anyone who dares critizise or oppose this idea in answering the scale is labeled a modern sexist.

Basically it goes like this:

Agree with us that there is pervasive sexism against women and that women are being unfairly treated or you are a sexist.

Proufoundly stupid.

Fundamentally social psychologists have nothing to measure biases against except their own biases which they of course do not recognize as biases. So everything is relative except what they "know" which happens to be the truth against which all else must be measured.

The contradictions in this are of the kind so well described in the novel 1984 as doublethink.

Evolutionary psychology on the other hand does not rely on testing against its own prejudies but can actually generate real scientific hypothesis that can be rejected on objective grounds.

Social psychologists produce nothing of duration, only ponderings over the Zeitgeist.
