Hi kids! Do you like utility? (Yeah yeah yeah!)
Wanna see me stick embalming fluid in each of my entities? (Uh-huh!)
Wanna counsel me and do exactly like I did? (Yeah yeah!)
Try 'percs and get severed worse than my head is? (Huh?)
My brain's dead weight, I'm tryin' to consequentiate
But I can't figure out which Suffragist I want to impregnate (Oh)

Bentham said that it was the placing of women in a legally inferior position that made him choose in 1759, at the age of eleven, the career of a reformist.

Deontology has an affinity with despotism, due to its predilection for Aristotelian-fascist top-down ethical prepositions that always screw up viciously. Utilitarianism works differently. It avoids Ideas, and sticks to mathematics: adding up individual utility curves software for accessing optimal social utility.
