There are evolutionary explanations that contradict your claims of a post-feminism, a big one being the loss of estrus, or "concealed ovulation," in human beings. This shift gave greater reproductive power towards the female compared to other primates. This encouraged males to invest more into the relationship. Despite your claims on male sexuality, you've so far neglected to acknowledge a male's desire for sexual access vs. a female's ability to protect that access. Sure there are males who pick low-hanging fruit and settle for sexual access to females of unusually low self-esteem, but many females aren't so willing as sexual partners simply for the sake of sex, and not all males are about sex for the sake of sex.
I will choose to overlook your previous comments on philosophy, as you are participating in that picking and choosing thing I mentioned. Much like your approach to feminism, it acts as a smoke screen to veil your true intent, which is your desire to share your gusto for having no-strings-attached sexual encounters. I have nothing against that in itself; I just wish you would be more forthright about it and stop making it sound like you're onto something big that we're all overlooking.
You want to fuck women and lots of them.
Yay.
How postmodern of you. You're a decade or a few too late, however.
