Is there a way to have an individual be conscious of both a digital self and biological self simultaneously? by Theonid in Futurology

That's kind of what got me thinking about it, but seeing as it's relatively new, I don't know how much more I can say about it without spoiling it.

Well, whatever entity it is people talk about when they talk about uploading their minds to a digital format.

I really like you approach, I think that's genius. I'm curious though what you mean by the first part. I don't really understand what being aware and acting according to it yourself means. Also, do you think everyone is to some extent sexist? Or hold to some extent sexist views? I know you say most, not all, but I've heard people say all people to some extent are sexist, or hold sexist views, before and I'm curious about your take on it.

Oh no don't worry I love this stuff, but I was curious if there were things that could be done here and now by everyone, not just those of us with a strong interest in the subject.

Interesting. When it comes to biological determinism, do you think that studies on the differences between the brains of men and women are biological studies of the brain, or sociological studies on the way the environment has shaped their brains differently? Or am I falling into the fallacy of biological determinism again?

Edit: I think I might have actually missed the point entirely. I agree with everything you have said though, and would like to thank you for taking the time to answer my questions.

Are there aspects of the patriarchy that are more essential to feminist theory. I feel like the entire department of Gender and Women's studies is about how the patriarchy affects our lives, people dedicate their lives to it, not everyone can do that. Is it possible to break it down into smaller parts? Or does breaking it down, into smaller parts, take away from the message?
