Yeah. desu she had better arguments even though I like Bloom more. Bloom just isn't a debater. He's not even a conventional lecturer like the other guests on In Our Time. No wonder he wasn't invited back on the show.

No problem, it used to be on YouTube but it got removed so this won't be accessible to our American Brothers.

In the past, I would have probably brushed her aside as a foolish person who just wants to insert her identity politics opinion into everything but she does have a point about millions of women being made to study that to which they cannot relate.

Goddammit Bloom is terrible at being challenged live. He could have totally argued that Freud point.

Bloom as usual is beyond horrid at live debates

This is why Bloom refuses to teach graduate and post-grad students. He exclusively teaches undergrads and then rants about "muh tenure corruption" and "muh theory corruption" as if that's the reason why he won't teach and be challenged by people older than 23.

The points he raises here are so moronic I can't believe anyone takes him seriously on this board.

He's babies first critic. A.K.A. the Roger Ebert of the literary world.
