What a load of utter tosh. It's just word soup. What the eff is "erotic innocence"? Why is anyone listening to such a warped individual? If the Synedd can't understand it, it's because it's made-up horsecrap, not because it's clever. They should be challenging it and asking for plain language, not nodding along.

Who was it who said 'clear writing gives poor thinking nowhere to hide'?

'Posthumanism' is just another way to say 'transhumanism'. The ultimate goal is to reject the 'archaic' ‘limitations’ of the human body. It's the opposite of ethical humanism based on reason, dignity, science, and human potential. It’s depressingly diabolical. We are all just meat sacs, so let's make the most of it.

Jesus, there seems to be a language devoid of cogence or practical use. And they charge for the privilege of reading this sh!te. The pay wall is not big enough.

Horseshit.

You could cut and paste any text from this arseholery and drop it straight into Pseuds Corner. I'm glad I moved to London if this is how Wales is treating its next generation.

This inflated, bombastic, self-congratulatory pile of pseudo-academic gobbledegook reminds me very much of the spoof paper once sent in a brilliant sting operation to three hundred open-access academic journals and accepted by over half of them. Before I took early retirement from university, I spent some time refereeing research project proposals, and we actually had a vetting system based on the frequency with which ostensibly meaningful - but practically nonsensical - words and phrases appeared. I've actually seen worse than the steaming pile of regurgitated queerspeak that the Welsh professor presents. The most galling aspect of all is the total lack of self-awareness that these ivory tower groomers exhibit by way of this astoundingly arrogant tendency - again a pseudo-academic constant - to create hilarious, utterly self-referential (and thus meaningless) neologisms. You couldn't make it up, really. But then again you could - as the spoof paper shows. This would be absolutely side-splittingly funny if it weren't so very seriously dangerous, damaging and tragic.

"love has no age, let’s mingle"

Could they be more obvious? Jimmy Savile at his boldest wouldn't have dreamt of saying that. One day they'll be asking "How did we miss the signs?" and the answer is: "You didn't. You were just too cowardly to admit you saw the signs."

This 'academic' drivel was funded by ESRC, a funding body whose policy espouses:

"Promoting EDI is an integral part of our vision to deliver new knowledge and an enriched, healthier, more sustainable and resilient society and culture, and to contribute to a prosperous economy."

Where's the Jester when you need him?

Absolute, incoherent gobbledygook ,just like Judith Butler's writings are reputed to be. Babies also play with ,and even suck , tlheir own toes so does that mean they have a foot fetish ? They don't know what genitals even are ,let alone be somehow " turned on " by them. Total garbage and a paediphile's dream. Hope Welsh parents fight hard against this child abuse nightmare !💔😭😈👎

This woman's spiel amounts to: "I work to enable men to have free access to children's sexed bodies and to exponentially increase their exploitation of female sexuality and reproductive capacity."

Thánks so much for that.

What all that guff she writes means is 'Let's nonce kids'.

What's happened to Wales that there isn't a national uprising against its paedo parliament?

Alfred Kinsey’s “revolutionary” surveys of sexual activity may be a major – if not THE major – culprit here. He included data of timings for achieving orgasm for very young children. And it turned out that he was getting this info from fathers who he was encouraging to “experiment” on their children. If there’s one thing worse than a paedophile, it’s an alleged scientist nodding consent to a paedophile under the pretext of scientific investigation.

Talks pish. Lot of it being flung about today.

“decentres the human and re-centres matter” - “forget what human beings are, we’re all just dust, love has no age, let’s mingle”

Well, my blushing 9 year old betrothed Djamila and her parents will be very happy to hear that. 🙄
