      I haven't written any academic papers criticising feminism. They wouldn't get published.

      Helen, I don't like to speak ill of people, but that guy is an insignificant moron. Why are you bothering?

      If he's an academic, he should know that you can't proscribe terms in academia. You can only describe what you mean by them.

      The way he spoke, I suspected him of being a student. He was also behaving like one.

      That's rather disparaging of students. 😳

      I'm afraid it's true. I help undergrads with academic writing & obviously I get the ones who struggle most but they really do struggle.

      There's been much talk about falling standards. It's sobering to hear first hand experiences of that. 😕

      They do usually get the grades they deserve tho & if it's not a 2:1, can't go much further with it.

          It's 1 to 20 in France. For historical reasons (counting in 20s, thus saying quatre-vingt instead of octante...)
