==Fourier vs. Undersky vs. Houellebecq== | |||
He was fairly unique among socialists as he saw sexual inequality to be a large causative factor of various social ills,<ref>The Utopian Vision of Charles Fourier, 1983, pg 339</ref> instead of solely focusing his critiques on alienation and economic exploitation, thus preceding [[Michel Clouscard]] and the main character of Michel Houellebecq's novel ''[[Whatever]]'', in his analysis of sexual deprivation from a leftist perspective. Like [[Alex Undersky|Undersky]], and unlike the much less libertarian [[Michel Houellebecq]], Fourier portrays sexual liberalism as inherently good for incels. Although, only without markets in general and under certain other circumstances. His sex specific writings were not widely known during his lifetime, and were rediscovered in the 1960s.<ref>Beecher, J. Bienvenu, R. 1971. ''The Utopian Vision of Charles Fourier. pp 329.''</ref> | |||

A [[blackpill]] female commentator on Fourier named Amia Srinivasan insists that paraphrased "[[itsOVER]] for incels", and says it would be impossible to find someone for everyone. And then sort of praising sex as mysterious. Sort of a combination of an ill-informed, unsourced assertion and a reification of discrimination.<ref>https://www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v40/n06/amia-srinivasan/does-anyone-have-the-right-to-sex</ref> | A [[blackpill]] female commentator on Fourier named Amia Srinivasan insists that paraphrased "[[itsOVER]] for incels", and says it would be impossible to find someone for everyone.
