Why Are So Many More Men Dying from Coronavirus?
The disproportionate toll this virus is taking on males isn’t an anomaly. When it comes to survival, men are the weaker sex.
By Sharon Moalem
Dr. Moalem is a scientist, physician, and the author of the forthcoming “The Better Half: On the Genetic Superiority of Women.”
April 2, 2020
I was going to write “we die younger because of your constant nagging” but I looked him up.
He’s got a M.D. in Simping. (Probably due to having a women’s first name.)
Gender is socially constructed. Men are the same as women. These statistics are sexist because they don’t differentiate Covid deaths for all 50 Facebook genders.
But men being victimized more is ok and of no concern. They are not a historically disadvantaged class.
Is XX or XY. Hilarious how people are brained washed. Science is fact. And no amount of propaganda can change it. No matter how many people say it over and over and over. It is simple Biology. Now I know the school systems are failing.
Does this essay’s status as a NYT op-ed mean that it’s now okay to discuss any of these stats with the women you know?
Didn’t think so.

His parents tried to give him some of that female superiority by naming him Sharon.
Sharon (Hebrew: שָׁרוֹן Šārôn "plain") is a given name as well as an Israeli surname.
In English-speaking areas, Sharon is now predominantly a feminine given name. However, historically it was also used as a masculine given name. In Israel, it is used both as a masculine and a feminine given name.Replies: @International Jew, @Cloudbuster, @prosa123

Why Are So Many More Minorities Dying from Coronavirus?
The disproportionate toll this virus is taking on minorities isn’t an anomaly. When it comes to survival, minorities are the weaker races.
By Duke Bicklebaum
Dr. Bicklebaum is a scientist, physician, and the author of the forthcoming “The Better Race: On the Genetic Superiority of Whites.”
Just wait and see. Any day now in the NYT.
Look for my new book “On The Genetic Superiority of White Men” at your local Barnes & Noble. My agent tells me it’s gonna get the book-equivalent of hate-clicks and we’re going straight to the top of the NYT best seller list.
I also did a very contentious interview with some homo from the New Yorker. With any luck his life was ruined forever.
If you ever interview anybody for a job you should make them read it aloud.
You'll know whether to hire them.
This guy must OCD over his Wikipedia page because it calls him a polymath, presents him as an all purpose genius. But has nothing on his early years and his family.
Yes, the Y chromosome gives males a weaker immune system.
(Interestingly, Amish males have a slightly unusual Y chromosome and thus a stronger immune system.)

I liked how he almost writes trannies aren’t women. “Genetic females” will probably get him cancelled.
The reader comment with the second highest number of “recommends” is the pithiest:
The most recommended comment appears to have a typo (unless the guy really did mean “XX genetic male.”)

This was a terrific read. I didn't know the details of chromosomes and you explained it well. Love that we have a real life global example that could possibly increase awareness and funding for women's health and research.
Carolynn draws the right conclusions - men are dying at a higher rate than women - this means that we must increase awareness and funding for women's health. If men are dying at a lower rate than women - this also means that we must increase awareness and funding for women's health. Do you see how this works?
Women BTW already account for something like 120% of male medical spending because their lady parts require a lot of medical intervention and because they like to go to the doctor more than men. But a long time ago RBG got the courts to rule that it would be discrimination for insurance companies to charge women higher premiums. Of course insurance companies don't bear that cost - they just charge everyone 10% more so that the men subsidize the women.Replies: @res

That’s correct. His last name, Moalem, is Arabic but not uncommon among Jewish families from North Africa, Iraq, etc. Now all you conspiracy theorists really have something to talk about! (You’re welcome, Steve.)
Wanna lend a hand getting us started?
I knew someone with that last name but slightly diff spelling. He told me the Moalem name is Iraqi Jewish. Not many know that in 1947 Iraq had 300,000 or more Jews, one of the world’s largest concentrations.
Real “Arab” Jews are darker (skin) (swarthy) so this Sharon Moalem must only be part Iraqi Jew.
If I had to guess, this guy is the product of an Iraqi Jewish father who travelled to the University of Minnesota to get his PhD, and the hot Norwegian blonde he met there.
A bit off topic and/or a question that has perhaps been answered elsewhere. Why are so many of the high Covid death rate countries small ? Andorra, San Marino and Liechtenstein are all in the top 20 for death rates per million.
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries
The small countries you mention rank high on deaths per million, but when you divide deaths by cases, you find that they are well within the range of the larger countries around them, with the exception of Andorra. Its deaths to cases ratio is only about 1% compared to the ~ 2.5% for countries like France, Germany and UK.Replies: @AKAHorace

Nothing ruins a good joke like “Akshully…”
This first commenter basically described all of “Feminism” in a nutshell. It’s just an endless toggling between the two positions (women are different and superior/women are the same and equal), depending on which benefits women in a particular context.
This second commenter maybe has a point about how to diplomatically discuss differences. But it’s hard to argue that surviving a disease is not “superior” to the alternative.

“The Endurance” book about Shackleton’s ill-fated yet non-fatal Antarctic expedition gives a feel for how overwhelming masculine exploration was and had to be. Tender friendships formed between the men but one imagines a whiff of homosexuality would have destroyed everyone in that environment.
Even just One woman would have led to terrible jealousy and fights and interrupted the professional friendships. Space exploration will be handicapped due to this.

Ariel Sharon had girl names for both his first and last names, but he was about as masculine as you could get!
One naming peculiarity is that what were once boy names or at least unisex sometimes become almost exclusively girl names (Ashley, Blair, Lynn, Madison, Reese, Taylor, many others), but the reverse never happens.
Feminizing boys names, e.g., Patrick/Patricia, James (Jacob)/Jacqueline, Francis/Frances, George/Georgia, Eric/Erica, seems to have been exclusively a Roman thing, which spread throughout the Empire. Greeks, Hebrews, Japanese, and other peoples had separate stocks of names for each sex.

Was Shirley ever unisex? I can recall only one man with that name, the late Washington Post sportswriter Shirley Povich (father of Maury).
What about Evelyn? Is it unisex if pronounced differently for male vs. female (e.g., EEV-e-lyn Waugh)?
As a boy name it was very uncommon until the 1950's when it almost entirely vanished. Interestingly, the site says that Shirley was usually a boy name until the publication of the Charlotte Bronte novel of the same name in 1849 made it associated with girls.

I think you spelled corpulent wrongly.
I used to have a little ritual, back in the day: Whenever I was in a bookstore with friends and a new Gor book had come out, I would pick it up, theatrically open it to a random spot, and start reading aloud. Invariably somewhere on the two facing pages there would be a passage like:
“Whip me again, Master!” she begged. “I long for the kiss of the lash upon my naked back!”
“Silence, slave! I’ll whip you when I damned well feel like it, and not a moment before!”
Ashley Montague used to say this way back, would appear on Johnny Carson and talk about it. He said women were stronger in every way but muscularly. He became more dubious as the years went by, and was defending the fake Blackfoot Indian Jamake Highwater. Probably senile by then. I just saw that the book The Natural Superior of Women goes back to 1952, and was used by the 2nd Wave Feminists. I hadn’t heard anybody say anything like that since he appeared on TV a few times.

Its deaths to cases ratio is only about 1% compared to the ~ 2.5% for countries like France, Germany and UK.

I have also read that having Neanderthal DNA increases ones chances of infection and seriousness.
Only genetic black Africans lack some Neanderthal DNA. Northern Europeans have the most.
Yet according to the stats (if they aren’t being gamed) blacks have a higher mortality rate in the US.
Don’t know if it is black males only or all blacks.
Despite having reported genetic advantages for survival they fare less favorably. So what factors does this leave?
Answer: behavioral. Such as physical co-morbidity like obesity, diabetes, heart disease, asthma, alcoholism and drug use, etc. Also cultural, such as lack of social distancing due to communal congregating in clubs, bars, street corners, “house parties,” street parties, riots and looting mayhem (okay, the latter not really statically significant but…)
But aside from Sleepy Joe and his Progressive mafia buddies, white males will still be at the bottom of the distribution queue. Blacks and others are Protected Species. White males are the opposite.

He starts summarizing an unremarkable finding “I’m really ok with the insight that my gender gives me an on-average weaker immune system.” But then drives the bus over to opportunistic complexity: “But I think the nomenclature of ‘superiority’ reduces a very complex issue with still-emerging proclivities (as a result of ongoing research) to an overly simple binomial superior/inferior ordering.” Because God forbid something in nature ever result in simple binomial ordering? Simple being inherently undesirable as outside the sphere of political meddling.

So why do they have more cases ? Better reporting because it is easier to pick up in a small country ?
San Marino also has a high tests to pop ratio relative to major Western European countries, but substantially below Andorra’s. Lichtenstein’s testing ratio is, however, slightly below average for the Euro countries.
So, given the high deaths to population ratio, what is driving the moderate deaths to cases ratio for San Marino and Lichtenstein? Compared to their larger neighbors, the two countries have high cases to tests ratios. Where the UK and Germany have about 5.5% of tests coming back positive, San Marino is about 9.2% and Lichtenstein is at 10.6%.
So Andorra looks bad on overall deaths, but they are doing extreme testing, but with a low positive rate per test. Lichtenstein, is middling on testing, but more tests come back positive, so the case mortality rate is line with the other nations.Replies: @Alden, @AKAHorace

WWII General Claire Chennault had what would be considered a girl’s name. And to really mess with us, one of his sons by his first wife was named Claire, as was a daughter by his second wife.
Consider also the actor Leslie Howard (who played Ashley Wilkes in “Gone With the Wind”) and the director Sir Carol Reed.
When my sister lived in Italy for a number of years, her name Andrea caused no end of confusion, since there it means Andrew.

My vague impression is that American military heroes tend to have weird first names.
I would imagine that the tiny size of these countries would make the logistics of testing a large percentage of the population much easier. And that certainly seems to be the case for Andorra, which has a very high tests per million ratio, although a relatively low ratio of cases to tests. So I would say that the low case mortality rate for Andorra is being driven by the large number of tests.
San Marino also has a high tests to pop ratio relative to major Western European countries, but substantially below Andorra’s. Lichtenstein’s testing ratio is, however, slightly below average for the Euro countries.
So, given the high deaths to population ratio, what is driving the moderate deaths to cases ratio for San Marino and Lichtenstein? Compared to their larger neighbors, the two countries have high cases to tests ratios. Where the UK and Germany have about 5.5% of tests coming back positive, San Marino is about 9.2% and Lichtenstein is at 10.6%.
So Andorra looks bad on overall deaths, but they are doing extreme testing, but with a low positive rate per test. Lichtenstein, is middling on testing, but more tests come back positive, so the case mortality rate is line with the other nations.
Look what happened to Deaths/million in Gibralter today. It is now high on the list. Perhaps there is a tendency for covid deaths tend to be "lumpy" you are likely to get a clusters in the 10s-40s or so. If one one these clusters occur in a small population it gives a high deaths/population figure.
There is nothing about this that is vaguely appropriate… There is an asymmetry in all sorts of places.
If, and only if, M-F transgenders buy menstrual products what do they do with them? If they live with women and girls, someone in the house can use them. But if the M-F lives alone or with other men, what do they do with them?
If, if any M-F really do buy them.

Gender,

The whole thing was kind of amusing--the guy wrote it as a joke and then found it was actually doing really well. It became the basis of a whole BDSM subculture.
DAW killed it in the late eighties after Donald Wollheim's feminist daughter took over. I remember someone trying to bring it back under the Masquerade Press line as erotic fiction sometime in the nineties (I saw it in Barnes and Noble), but I'm guessing feminists squelched that too. Looks like they managed to bring it back as an e-book sometime in the 2000s, and the last one is dated 2019, but the dude's 89 years old, so who knows who's actually writing them now.

It’s interesting to see today’s Paglia compared to the 80’s? “Sexual Personae” person.
An open longing for more traditional times.
That and on the freedom-vs-security tradeoff, Paglia comes down squarely on the side of freedom, unlike the modern feminized left.
It kind of makes sense she decided she was transgendered--she was just one of these rare women with a masculine brain. She's actually argued for trying to avoid surgery and hormones, though--better to just live life as a weirdo rather than cut parts of your body off and take drugs with side effects.
If I had to rerun the past 50 years I'd probably try to find some more humane solution to cases like that--kind of a 'you're weird but we'll leave you alone' rather than tossing people in jail for being gay which led to the reactions against that, which led to the current situation where trying to follow the gender roles that were common for the last 2000 years is some kind of oppression.

Oh, it’s not the feminine aspect of its (((first name))) that got it where it is….
Feminizing boys names, e.g., Patrick/Patricia, James (Jacob)/Jacqueline, Francis/Frances, George/Georgia, Eric/Erica, seems to have been exclusively a Roman thing, which spread throughout the Empire. Greeks, Hebrews, Japanese, and other peoples had separate stocks of names for each sex.
When names are more literal, as in Chinese or with American Indians, the sex divide might be less clear.Replies: @Curle, @Expletive Deleted
