Bio-gynocentrism
Bio-gynocentrism refers to a general attitude which regard men and masculinity as expendable and disposable on a biological and evolutionary basis. Bio-gynocentrism also incorporates a corresponding higher value imposed on women, who are the endpoints of the biological disposability of males. Bio-gynocentrism can be best summarized as the alleged scientific basis for sex stratification, with males as the servant sex and females as the serviced.
Description
Bio-gynocentrists are either serious believers of the fundamental disposability of the human male and are advocates towards that end, or are often those that casually adopt the attitude as if it is common sense.
Common arguments include:
- Men evolved to protect and provide for women because women are of higher reproductive value.
- A tribe can survive if most of the males are wiped out, so long as the women are protected.
- Men are biologically stronger, so they should be expected to die in service to the tribe.
The attitude is commonly adopted by Traditional gynocentrists who, despite opposing feminism for its unjust attitudes towards men, commonly impose similar gynocentric standards of inherent female biological importance and expectations of male sacrifice.
Objections to Bio-Gynocentrism
Adam Kostakis speaks on the subject:
"I do not believe that gynocentrism is a biological predisposition. I do not believe that evolution grants women superior biological value and status. I do not believe men are created to “serve” women, or that this situation is inescapable. What the advocates of male disposability describe is not a symbiotic relationship, but a parasitic one. And it is one I believe is socially constructed. It’s an enduring relationship, for sure! But you know what they say, rules are made to be broken."[1]
