An Example of Political Correctness
I had an invitation to write an entry for the International Encyclopedia of Social Sciences, 2nd edition, but declined it when I found that they require gender-neutered writing. They wouldn’t allow a sentence such as, “If a player in the game is informed, he will never react in that way.” It’s interesting how politicized academic writing has become– and how many academics implicitly condemn everything written before 1990 as insufficiently supportive of feminism.
