There’s STILL an important point that both of you are missing, one that seems pretty obvious to me: DNA is a symbol of patriarchal oppression, is it not? DNA is shaped like a helix, which resembles a corkscrew, which is a thinly veiled, ubiquitous symbol of sex, which is an act of violence perpetrated by men against women. If ever there was a graphic depiction of the categorical dehumanization of the female gender, surely there is none more purely malevolent and gleefully explicit than that of the corkscrew and it’s obvious resemblance to every man’s fantasy of grabbing a woman by the neck and callously ripping into her interior in a paroxysm of cathartic masculine penetration and destruction. Surely there is no victim more powerless, yet vital for the preservation of his metaphorical wine, than the defenseless cork, or a more cathartically gratifying act of sadistic pleasure for the merciless patriarchal oppressor, pulling it from from his bottle with a sexually explicit POP, yanking it free from his metal phallus and forgetting that it ever existed and preserved his wine having tossing it with ultimate contempt into the trashbin. The humble cork, made from treebark, may be feminized protein, but the very amino acids from which it is constructed are dictated by feminized life itself. The merciless oppression of the vital and pristine female gender from which men take our very existence is written into our deepest biochemical essence.

This is where humanity must look for it’s ongoing social evolution. We must liberate women from the slavery of DNA.
