There's an assumption here that we should take the word of accusing women for granted. That's probably fair enough by and large, but then by granting that we incentivize women to make false charges when it suits them. Sorry, but that's just human nature (that dreaded anti-Marxist notion).

^^^^^ CB: Species being is one of Marx's concepts. Marx's materialism is based in concepts of human nature. Human nature is not an anti-Marxist notion. Marx does demolish the idea that bourgeois and capitalist ideology is human nature.

Maybe ur thinking of post-modernists and their idea of anti-essentialism.
