"Science has established a radically new insight: that there is such a strong brain-vagina connection in women that many neuroscientists call 'a single system'"

"Realizing the nature of this brain-vagina connection led me, as a feminist, to have the next obvious insight: the vagina is not a sex organ at all, but a powerful mediator of female confidence, creativity and the sense of all connections between things. A profound connection between a woman’s brain and her vagina affects her greater sense of creativity—even her consciousness."

"Understanding the brain-vagina connection, I have learned, is not merely a key to more transformative sex for women – it is a key to female self-actualization, and thus to female power."

There have been studies about the GI tract having a "mind" of it's own, in the way that it communicates with the brain to dictate function/dysfunction. But the vag? Seems far-fetched and also, unwelcome for most sane vag owners.

If anything this is a blow to feminism. Woman want 'equality' yet claim they are biologically different as they think with their clunge.

Reading that quote, and it's...it's like she just skimmed a headline, got all the details wrong, and vomited up this nonsense.

What studies are showing is how little actually control themselves, how so much of what we pass off as "rational thought" is really just rationalizations for giving in to our basest desires.

This is not a good thing.

I've read a couple reviews about this book in Newsweek, Time, other literary reviews, etc. and almost everyone seemed to legitimately worry about this woman's mental health.

Why doesn't she just accept that gender isn't performative, and that most feminist theory since de Beauvoir was all bullshit?

This seems to be the unsaid implication, that gender is biological, not a social construct after all.
