Szasz shoud be a feminist hero

Szasz shoud be a feminist hero.

Szasz's filosofy is a counter to Freud's malicious "ideas" and "works" that are MASSIVELY oppressive of women.

The first so-called "Mental Illness" that Szasz debunks is the utterly NON-EXISTENT "hysteria" - which is named after a female part of the anatomy. Another example of pure oppression in a single word.

Also, statistically the majority of people oppressed and caused to suffer by the ridiculous  ideology of "Mental Illness" were and still are FEMALE.

And conditions for them within the system and the gulags were and still are far worse than those for males.

The radical feminist filosofer Nina Power, for example, lists as one of her interests - "Hysteria".

This term certainly has no scientific meaning! It has a cultural one, regrettably!

Is she aware that this term is in origin pure oppression?! It is straight from the Greek for womb!

About Me

My photo
I am an amateur FILOSOFER. (I am not really a sofa). I dropped out of Cambridge University though I got an "S" grade in the entrance examination. I eventually received a 1st class Bachelors degree elsewhere. I received A.H.R.B. funding to pursue postgraduate study, but did not do so. Please enjoy my blogs. To parafrase Orwell, I am trying to make political blogging into an art. My intellectual heroes are Kenan Malik, Thomas Szasz and Noam Chomsky. I have made some mistakes in my life - and I would like to apologize wholeheartedly and from the depths of my cushions for any problems I may have caused and may be causing for anyone anywhere.
