Unemployment now leads to
the Death of the Dead.
Death becomes wrong.
The dead have no right.
No longer does death order,
The sacrifice of ones function.
The permanently unemployed are dead.
The order of the male will die.
An Androgynous world is a mass murder
The dead have no right.
No longer does death order,
The sacrifice of ones function.
The permanently unemployed are dead.
The order of the male will die.
An Androgynous world is a mass murder
with true equality.
Gender becomes unemployed.

Ruth walks down an urban upper middle class street. It is cloudy and there is a slight breeze. It is the middle of winter and the weather has warmed for a frivolous calm. Bezelbub walks down the street.
(Bezelbub smiles to HIMSELF.)
Bezelbub
Ruth
Ruth
How did you know my name?
Bezelbub
If I want to know your name, then I know your name.
Ruth
(SHAKING HER HEAD IN THE NO POSITION.)
uh-uh
(SHAKES HER HEAD LEFT TO RIGHT AGAIN)
uh no, I think not Rumplestilskin.
Bezelbub
You don't know what you want.
Ruth
I don't want you.
Bezelbub
You already have me.
Ruth
I have pain. That is true.
Bezelbub
We have each other.
Ruth
You don't have me. Nobody has me.
Bezelbub
I get what I want. I have complete control.
Ruth
You don't have control over anything, not even control over your self.
Bezelbub
I will control.
Ruth
Your control?
Bezelbub
see this dollar?
Ruth
mmm-hmmm
Bezelbub
I will put this dollar on the ground. Like this.
Ruth
(cynically)
a magic trick.
Bezelbub
Nobody likes a skeptic
Ruth
do your trick.
Bezelbub
I am going to make the dollar move without touching it.
Ruth
I see
Bezelbub
Are you Ready?
Ruth
Yes, go ahead
Bezelbub
Make sure you are watching carefully.
Ruth
I'm watching. I'm watching.
(They both stare at the DOLLAR for 15 seconds. Nothing happens)
Ruth
Nothing happened.
(Bezelbub Smiles)
Ruth
Nothing happened. Nothing at all.
(RUTH GOES TO PICK UP THE DOLLAR. SHE PUTS THE DOLLAR IN HER POCKET)
Ruth
Thanks for the dollar!
Bezelbub
You see, it moved.
(Bezelbub SMILES)
Bezelbub
I did tell you. I control everything.
Ruth
You didn't make it move. I moved it.
Bezelbub
I made you move it.
Ruth
no
Bezelbub
I just did. I control you and I can oppress you..
Ruth
How can you oppress me?
Bezelbub
If it isn't me, then it is somebody else. Wherever you go. You will be oppressed. There is no escape. It is only through me that you can find freedom.
Ruth
Oh really. How do you offer freedom?
Bezelbub
I offer what some might call love. I offer understanding. I offer a mutual relationship of cooperation. I offer pleasure.
Ruth
Now the devil offers love!
Bezelbub
Love?
Another Abstract manifestation,
Ruth
who is the skeptic now?
Bezelbub
Water that is too pure
has no fish. You abuse the word love, so I don't believe in it.
Ruth
You're not evil. You're ignorant.
Bezelbub
I offer pleasure. I offer freedom. I offer you the ability to do what you want.
Ruth
You offer stupidity.
Bezelbub
I offer the ability to escape from the burdens of society and live for you. I offer autonomy. I can do anything I want and so could you if you cooperate.
Ruth
are you threatening me? I don't have to listen to this. Why should I trust you. Maybe you're just getting off. Is that what your doing? You're crossing the line.
Bezelbub
I'm telling you that I could. I didn't say I would!
Ruth
Would what?
Bezelbub
Anything I want
Ruth
You can't always get what you want. You might find that your actions have consequence.
Bezelbub
I decide my own consequence.
Some struggle with a way.
Some struggle with no way.
Ruth
You must have had a healthy normal family life.
Bezelbub
If you're so afraid of me then why are you talking to me?
(Pause)
Bezelbub
Well?
Ruth
I'm trying to be polite. People are watching and I don't want you to make a scene.
Bezelbub
Why are woman always doing what is socially sanctioned? All a woman desires is sensitivity from others, they don't need a man to make them happy.
Ruth
You don't really think that, do you? I know plenty of women who like sex with men.
Bezelbub
For women, sex is like cigarettes, coffee, or alcohol. They develop a taste for it and then they become addicted.
Ruth
I've had sex with men.
Bezelbub
I don't doubt you. The women I know don't even seem to get aroused by men until after their first experience. Once a woman has a heterosexual moment then a woman might develop a taste for it.
Ruth
Sex is a scary.
Bezelbub
It's not quite as scary for men. Most women have to be talked into sex their first time. You know what the world would be like without men? A bunch of obese and content butch lesbians.
Ruth
Woman have more at stake then men. It's not that they can't enjoy sex, it's simply that they are given a huge neurosis about it because they are the ones that could be pregnant.
Bezelbub
Rarely do women contemplate copulation without the children factor, because they have more at risk in pregnancy. Nine months of work is a bigger investment then a quick ejaculation.
Ruth
Is that fair?
Bezelbub
Life isn't fair for men either. People choose sexual partners based on their populaces social pressures and their own sexual cravings, but usually only women fear the direct biological result.
Ruth
Maybe it is time for men to start worrying.
Bezelbub
Oh, men are worried now. Believe me it is nothing to wish for. Sex is dangerous for us all now, but mostly women fear sexual anarchy because it would allow every one to be unmonogamous.
Ruth
Monogamy protects women from being cheated. It protects men too.
Bezelbub
Yes, men can lose. But, like you said, men can't become pregnant. You resent the fact that Bill Clinton cheated on Hillary, because it sets a precedent of sex without responsibility for men.
Ruth
I'm sorry, but sex without responsibility is not a good thing.
Bezelbub
You would think advances in birth control would make that phobia goes away. Men have to go out and earn a living while many women sit home and contemplate their newfound choices. Do you still think all men are given unlimited freedoms?
Ruth
but, your saying women are more likely to be gay by nature? A huge generalization!
Bezelbub
Your consider yourself gay, right?
Ruth
You're crossing the line.
Bezelbub
A good generalization usually has exquisite truths in it that are correct more times then not. Reality itself exists only through generalization. To understand our existence and to operate in it we must generalize. I have generalized... but truth itself is a generalization.
Ruth
Your generalizations are in the mold of an eighteenth century sexist.
Bezelbub
So now I am in the eighteenth century? Is there an exquisite difference between the eighteenth century and now? Certainly women haven't changed! Women are comprised of the same flesh today as they were yesterday. What has changed?
Ruth
Our roles have changed. Our perceptions of each other based on what is between our legs are different.
Bezelbub
Nothing has changed. The benefits and expenses of gender roles are still here and they are not going away.
Ruth
That's because of you.
Bezelbub
No, it is because of you. Women tend desire for some kind of moral system, to control. You secretly desire a feminist hierarchy, like an intimidating boyfriend. Something to tell us what to do.
Ruth
I don't want anyone to tell me what to do.
Bezelbub
Of course not. You want to control the boyfriend. Since you can't completely control a man you are replacing him with political correctness. speaking of that oppressive boyfriend. Rape: Isn't it odd how some woman enjoy the feeling of being victims. The ecstasy of being aware that a man was so needful that he broke his own morals. I have no moral values. You can't break me.
Ruth
That is your mistake. You think we want to be controlled.
Bezelbub
Passive men are seen as weak to the opposite sex and therefor not worthy of copulation and progeny. I am not passive. For women one's mate is seen as a gamble. A man who is strong enough to perform a violent sexual act is arousing for a woman because it proves a man's autonomy from other males. Then that man becomes a commodity.
Ruth
Men generally are given the freedom to rape the world. They habitually use a strategy of control to fill their desires. Men rarely attempt submission as a way of also filling desires. They rarely think, if I were to contribute and take part then I might fill the minimal desires I need.
Bezelbub
Who do you think the men were pillaging the world for? Carnal pleasure. If they could of had it at home they wouldn't of left their house. The eighteenth century wasn't a utopia for men.
Ruth
The men back then had it better then the women.
Bezelbub
You're deluded. maybe the sexism was installed into the workforce by men was created as a defense for a civilization struggling to escape from the brunt of responsibility forced on men by women.
Ruth
Some how I doubt that.
Bezelbub
Your welcome to doubt, but think about this. Boys are generally competitive, individualistic and yet highly efficient and will embark well into any interaction with the goal of personal benefit. If you allow personal benefit then the boys will be tolerable.
Ruth
Why should we fashion the world for a mutant male sex? Just because you guys can't get along doesn't mean the rest of us can't. I say ignore the little boys and their little squabbles. The rest of us can get a long fine without you.
Bezelbub
You might just get what you are asking for. Modern birthing techniques allow women to have children without fertilization, therefor no men involved... meanwhile men can't have children without the women's ovary.
Ruth
That's good to know!
Bezelbub
The sheep that they cloned genetically?... that was done with a blank ovary without male fertilization and a womb was still needed. The male sex is now completely obsolete!
Ruth
Well, you guys did it to yourself. Halaluya
Bezelbub
On the biological level men have always been at a position of vulnerability even with their general superior physical ability.
Ruth
oh I see, is that how western man raped billions of aborigine peoples.
Bezelbub
It always took only one man to fertilize millions of women. Today, one could create a society of almost all women, who would also be the workers. The male would be used only for fertilization and you would need only one male to do this. You could slaughter all the excess men.
Ruth
There is an idea.
Bezelbub
The amount of production a man could do in the majority of industries could easily be substituted with a women. Beyond the biological reproductive factor, no good comes from an aggressive gender in the mechanistic workings of a healthy society. If women had truly wanted to improve the efficiency, it would be the end of man. It is no wonder that man has instituted sexism into society. Sexism is man's only defense against anialization.
Ruth
That was a twist that I wasn't expecting. Men oppress because they have to?
Bezelbub
If you look historically at men who instituted genetic cleansing, you will find they all treated the women around them well. Hitler was great to all the women who were around him.
Ruth
What about all the non-Aryan women Hitler killed?
Bezelbub
In Hitler's logic it is necessary to purify race. If you take Hitler's philosophy a step further then you get a very militant feminist doctrine. The final purification based on scientific reduction is the death of the mutant and randomizing genes that comes from both Aryan and non-Aryan men.
Ruth
So Hitler would kill himself. Hurrah!
Bezelbub
Or he would attempt to get a sex change.
Maybe that is why we can't find him today!
Ruth
Hitler as a woman. I think I'm going to barf.
Bezelbub
It's possible.
Ruth
The mustache would have to go.
Bezelbub
There is nothing more dangerous to men then a man that listens to women. The pussy-whipped man is a man who installs fear into the mutants. The emancipation of womankind is freedom and that freedom from male oppression can only happen with the death of the mutant sex.. Women simply don't need men...
Ruth
How true.
Bezelbub
The supposed emotional and spiritual companionship that men could offer women can be substituted with another woman.
Ruth
You think you are righteous in your contrary to the mainstream divergence, but yet you are consistent in doctrine with Judeo-Christianity in that you see salvation through men.
Bezelbub
I don't appreciate the comparison. What is salvation when you have eternity? I do not see salvation through men. I see a continuance of the status quo in men.
Ruth
An unconventional neo-conservative.
Bezelbub
A label I can live with. The destruction of this planet and its natural system would be a paradox certainly in the concept of messianic deliverance, as would the extinction of the male sex. The death of mankind would destroy the Judaic concept of g-d and the devil.
Ruth
The bible describes true evil as always male like the force of good itself. The polarities of forces are always male. This is a mistake, but so is what you are saying. Instead of coming to the conclusion that gender identification is a complete sham, you have substituted women for the devil and left the benevolent father figure consistent with monotheism.
Bezelbub
Ha!, no woman has the balls to be the devil. This is no longer about what is righteous. This is about survival. If you see that as righteousness then that is your viewpoint. I see little benevolent in man... I'm man's biggest supporter! I prefer the so-called chosen evil of men to the ways of irresolute women like you.
Ruth
If there was a devil do you think g-d would send him a card during the holiday?
Bezelbub
No.
Ruth
Do you think g-d says, "Hey, Lucifer how are things?" and Lucifer might say, "Not bad. A little hot down here in hell, but that's the breaks of being damned. How are things in heaven?"
Bezelbub
That jerk!
Ruth
g-d is always a haughty guy who wouldn't give Lucifer the time of day. Talk about an unforgiving father figure.
Bezelbub
Amen!
Ruth
Monotheism misleads us into a corner. To hell with the conviction that the realm of g-d is infinitely large by disregarding the diminutive truths.
Bezelbub
There is no one truth.
Ruth
I have my truth. The eternal trick of Western thought is that the knowledge has been coded with masculinity permanently for all eternity.
Bezelbub
Testify.
Ruth
The ultimate trick that Nietsche would understand, as the catch-22 of organized religion.
Bezelbub
Amen.
Ruth
Judaism began the misdeed by manifesting a fixed book. The Jewish commentary was continually building and changing, but the root core of the system was static.
Bezelbub
Amen.
Ruth
Christianity zealously followed this archetype, but it was Judaism that laid the fixed masculine groundwork for Civilization and it's Discontents.
Bezelbub
Then we partially agree.
Ruth
Do we really? You fear that if mankind is destroyed, and woman triumphs, that evil will go out of business?
Bezelbub
Let's hope not.
Ruth
You have nothing to fear. Even after the "Y" chromosome is erased from the flesh of the universe, the code can be salvaged. The data for the male sex exists in all humans. A male can be made from a female.
Bezelbub
Phenomenal. Adam created from Eve's rib.
Ruth
The mutant sex lurks in all of us!
Bezelbub
What about nesting?
Ruth
Nesting?
Bezelbub
The female conspiracy.
Ruth
Freaky cracker!
Bezelbub
In most species the female does most of the child rearing. Therefor the female code or DNA is more vulnerable. For this reason the female designs a series of obstacles for the men to perform so that the male will not betray the female and perform copulation with another female.
Ruth
That makes sense.
Bezelbub
If the male betrays the female then his odds improve in the spread of his genetic code, likewise the female's code has a lesser chance of survival. This is why sexual responsibility is so serious and why some female birds have men build nests.
Ruth
Nesting!
Bezelbub
Exactly! If the male is occupied with nest building then he is less likely to cheat on the female. The male will be forced to build a nest for each female. This is why in our society it is customary for the male to work and provide... the human equivalent of nest building.
Ruth
I don't want your nest.
Bezelbub
But, you want somebody else's.
Ruth
I will build my own nest.
Bezelbub
I'm going to make sure you can't. That's the killer for men. If women can provide the nest then men are useless.... Therefor obsolete! If men are obsolete... they will soon go extinct. I am going to insure that women do not enter the workforce and are incapable of building a nest on their own.
Ruth
So then it's war! Us against you.
Bezelbub
I wouldn't have it any other way.
Ruth
When will it end? You can't win!
Bezelbub
I'm doing my best to not win or lose. Henry Kissinger said that no one will win the war of the sexes because there simply is too much fraternizing with the enemy. The struggle must continue. Let's suppose you were pregnant.
Ruth
With who's baby? Not a chance if you think it would be yours.
Bezelbub
Let's suppose you were pregnant with a child.
Ruth
The hell you say.
Bezelbub
Exactly. Let us suppose you had knowledge that your child would be like an Antichrist.
Ruth
The Antichrist?
Bezelbub
Gender becomes unemployed.

Do you think g-d says, "Hey, Lucifer how are things?" and Lucifer might say, "Not bad. A little hot down here in hell, but that's the breaks of being damned. How are things in heaven?"
Bezelbub
That jerk!
Ruth
g-d is always a haughty guy who wouldn't give Lucifer the time of day. Talk about an unforgiving father figure.
Bezelbub
Amen!
Ruth
Monotheism misleads us into a corner. To hell with the conviction that the realm of g-d is infinitely large by disregarding the diminutive truths.
Bezelbub
There is no one truth.
Ruth
I have my truth. The eternal trick of Western thought is that the knowledge has been coded with masculinity permanently for all eternity.
Bezelbub
Testify.
Ruth
The ultimate trick that Nietsche would understand, as the catch-22 of organized religion.
Bezelbub
Amen.
Ruth
Judaism began the misdeed by manifesting a fixed book. The Jewish commentary was continually building and changing, but the root core of the system was static.
Bezelbub
Amen.
Ruth
Christianity zealously followed this archetype, but it was Judaism that laid the fixed masculine groundwork for Civilization and it's Discontents.
Bezelbub
Then we partially agree.
Ruth
Do we really? You fear that if mankind is destroyed, and woman triumphs, that evil will go out of business?
Bezelbub
Let's hope not.
Ruth
You have nothing to fear. Even after the "Y" chromosome is erased from the flesh of the universe, the code can be salvaged. The data for the male sex exists in all humans. A male can be made from a female.
Bezelbub
Phenomenal. Adam created from Eve's rib.
Ruth
The mutant sex lurks in all of us!
Bezelbub
What about nesting?
Ruth
Nesting?
Bezelbub
The female conspiracy.
Ruth
Freaky cracker!
Bezelbub
In most species the female does most of the child rearing. Therefor the female code or DNA is more vulnerable. For this reason the female designs a series of obstacles for the men to perform so that the male will not betray the female and perform copulation with another female.
Ruth
That makes sense.
Bezelbub
If the male betrays the female then his odds improve in the spread of his genetic code, likewise the female's code has a lesser chance of survival. This is why sexual responsibility is so serious and why some female birds have men build nests.
Ruth
Nesting!
Bezelbub
Exactly! If the male is occupied with nest building then he is less likely to cheat on the female. The male will be forced to build a nest for each female. This is why in our society it is customary for the male to work and provide... the human equivalent of nest building.
Ruth
I don't want your nest.
Bezelbub
But, you want somebody else's.
Ruth
I will build my own nest.
Bezelbub
I'm going to make sure you can't. That's the killer for men. If women can provide the nest then men are useless.... Therefor obsolete! If men are obsolete... they will soon go extinct. I am going to insure that women do not enter the workforce and are incapable of building a nest on their own.
Ruth
So then it's war! Us against you.
Bezelbub
I wouldn't have it any other way.
Ruth
When will it end? You can't win!
Bezelbub
I'm doing my best to not win or lose. Henry Kissinger said that no one will win the war of the sexes because there simply is too much fraternizing with the enemy. The struggle must continue. Let's suppose you were pregnant.
Ruth
With who's baby? Not a chance if you think it would be yours.
Bezelbub
Let's suppose you were pregnant with a child.
Ruth
The hell you say.
Bezelbub
Exactly. Let us suppose you had knowledge that your child would be like an Antichrist.
Ruth
The Antichrist?
Bezelbub
heh heh... whatever you wanna call it.
The one who will bring on the final battle.
Ruth
I would have an abortion
Bezelbub
I should have guessed. You wouldn't have any reservations?
Ruth
None whatsoever. Why are you inquiring?
Bezelbub
Just wondering.
(script continues with realization that Ruth and Bezelbub are the same person. A schizophrenic.)
