The Bailey paper proposes three steps: 1. Women have been historically discriminated against. 2. Women are currently discriminated against by people using the Socratic dialog. 3. The Socratic dialog discriminates against women.

The leap from 2. to 3. is reminiscent of "Hitler was a vegetarian. Therefore vegetarians are Nazis."
