If you're not prone to categorizing reality in order to understand it, you will have altogether different sorts of insights as to how all the parts of experience fit together, how cause and effect work, and how systems function or fail to function effectively.
The barrier to this fundamental level of understanding is the categorization of reality into seemingly discrete and separated categories. Thus, in the past, people upbraided me with the objection, "You can't say anything authoritative about how systems work, as you're the wrong gender!"
I responded, from my altogether different paradigm: "Yes, but you can't even observe the nature of systems, or how they work or do not work, because you have divided everything up according to gender. This means you are still working at the level of hypothesis and haven't tested anything yet."
