Women and philosophy are incompatible. Philosophy may bring relief to men, but it can only bring pain to women?
"Women's philosophy is harmful to women and philosophy." This is my casual remark, which attracted a lot of protests after it was published. Some people accuse me of being influenced by Schopenhauer and Nietzsche's contempt for women, which is unfair. This essay was written before I read Schopenhauer and Nietzsche, and the right of invention belongs to me. Besides, my starting point is by no means to despise women. The next sentence I wrote in this random feeling is really right: "God knows, I say this because I love women and philosophy!" " I never think that women are out of touch with wisdom. As far as I can see, some women are so smart that most men are eclipsed. On the whole, women's wisdom is by no means lower than that of men, but their characteristics are different. Even Schopenhauer has to admit that women are far superior to men in sensibility and intuition. However, out of philosophical prejudice, he regards sensibility as a low stage, and therefore ridicules women as children who have not grown up, saying that their spiritual development is "between male adults and children". On the contrary, I value intuition more than logic, so I have a preference for women's wisdom. In men, the maturity of reason is often at the expense of perceptual degradation. This kind of situation rarely happens to women, which is really gratifying. As far as the field of concern is concerned, female wisdom is a kind of secular wisdom and practical life wisdom. Women are not as good at metaphysical meditation as men. Milton said: Men communicate directly with God, and women must communicate with God through men. In my opinion, this is not a disadvantage for women. If a person is too close to God, he will not easily take root in the world. Man's pursuit of God will inevitably fail in the end. A woman is somewhat sure of finding a man with the shadow of God. When men are worried about eternal life or nothingness after death, women send warm milk into their children's bodies, making a real contribution to the continuation of human life. Lin Yutang said a very apt sentence: "Men only know the philosophy of life, but women know life." If there is only great and unworthy male wisdom in the world without considerate female wisdom, I wonder how desolate the world will be. Gorky teased: "God created such a terrible world because he is a bachelor." I think, fortunately, this single person still knows amorous feelings, and created another gender besides men, so that the world is not too bad after all. Actually, most women don't like philosophy by nature. A woman who likes philosophy may be smart and want to seek further training from philosophy; Maybe there is a painful soul who wants to find a way out from philosophy. Unfortunately, in most cases, after learning philosophy, the mind becomes complex and abstract, that is, it is not smart; The deeper the soul, the more desperate it is, and the more painful it is. I am sad to see a clever woman trapped in the maze of conceptual speculation, saying something that people can't understand. Seeing a lovely woman climb the metaphysical cliff and shed tears in the abyss, I can't help but feel distressed. Bad philosophy is boring and good philosophy is painful, both of which damage the beauty of women. I am against female philosophy out of pity for jade. Turning a page of history, it is no accident that women have become great poets, but they cannot find a female philosopher who goes down in history. Since ancient times, women have been studying philosophy. Pythagoras, Plato, and Epicurus all recruited female students, and their grades were not tested. From modern examples, the philosophical achievements of Beauvoir, Susan Langer and Kristeva show that women can at least become philosophical geniuses, if not great philosophers. So, how do women damage philosophy? This question really stumped me. Indeed, if measured by the standards of great men, most men are not qualified to care about philosophy except a few such as Heidegger. If not, women might as well engage in philosophical research. Women bring their intuition, emotion and pragmatic spirit into philosophy, which may make philosophy better. In this way, I don't know if it is still a philosophy.
