Feminist ‘Scholars’ Subvert the Truth, Abolish the Foundations of Science

May 18, 2026 – The purpose of science is to apply objective, systematic methods to elucidate truths about our world. But believing that objectivity is evidence of the dreaded “patriarchy,” UK feminist Adrienne Barnett set out to reinvent the notion of scientific truth.

Barnett conjured up the concept of “feminist scholarship,” which is “not just about understanding society, it’s about changing society.” Barnett went so far as to condone the fabrication of information: “We don’t go out and collect data; we create data.” (1)

Mainstream academics hoped that the wacky methods espoused by feminist scholarship would be confined to a handful of gender activists. But now, we are seeing evidence of the global corruption of science at the hands of feminist academics:

Domestic Violence: Mainstream domestic violence researchers have consistently documented that men and women around the world are equally likely to commit domestic violence (2).

But feminist researchers have gone to great lengths to distort these findings using a variety of underhanded tactics (3):

Suppressing evidence (e.g., publishing only male-perpetrator data).
Avoiding data collection on female perpetration.
Selectively citing studies showing male predominance.
Misinterpreting results to fit ideological beliefs.
Creating “evidence” through repeated citation of weak or non-supportive sources.
Obstructing publication and funding for contrary research.
Harassing or penalizing researchers who report gender symmetry.

Bias Against Female Faculty: Feminists often claim that female faculty members face widespread bias. So Cornell University researchers Stephen Ceci and Wendy Williams set out to evaluate these claims by undertaking an extensive review of the research.

Contrary to the feminist narrative, the Cornell researchers found that tenure-track women in numerous countries experience no disadvantages in terms of grant funding, journal acceptances, and recommendation letters. Indeed, female faculty are beneficiaries when it comes to preferential hiring practices (4).

Exclusion of Women from Medical Research: An editorial in the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine made this categorical assertion: “There is little doubt that women have been systematically excluded as subjects for study…it is not surprising that most clinical trials have been heavily, if not exclusively, weighted toward men.” (5)

But subsequent analyses revealed this claim was entirely fake: Women in fact represented 61% of all clinical trial participants, with men composing only 39% of all subjects (6).

Another review of the National Institutes of Health found that budget allocations for female-specific research were twice the amount of allocations for male-specific research (7).

‘Why can’t we hate men?’: Suzanna Danuta Walters, director of the Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality studies program at Northeastern University in Boston, published an editorial in the Washington Post titled, “Why Can’t We Hate Men?” (8) Her odious opinion piece argued that women’s “legitimate rage” against men is justifiable in response to “patriarchy.”

The problem with Walters’ logic is there is no such thing as “patriarchy” in Western societies. In fact, men are lagging behind women in 12 major areas such as lifespan, educational attainment, homelessness, harsh treatment by the criminal system, and many others (9).

Researcher Marc DeFant recently revealed that, “feminist studies have increasingly prioritized ideological narratives over empirical inquiry, influenced by Marxist and postmodernist critiques.” (10) The conclusion is clear: So-called “feminist scholarship” is far more widespread, devious, and harmful than many persons realize.

Compromising the vitality of the “truth” serves to undermine science, and eventually the entire society. Lawmakers and university administrators should defund women’s and gender studies programs.

The Domestic Abuse and Violence International Alliance – DAVIA — unites 232 member organizations from 43 countries in Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, Latin America, and North America. DAVIA seeks to ensure that domestic violence and abuse policies are science-based, family-affirming, and gender-inclusive. https://endtodv.org/coalitions/davia/
