Conservative mathematicians oftentimes cite measure theory as being the quintessential manifestation of political correctness in mathematics. Despite the virtual nonexistence of "sets of measure zero," liberal mathematicians continue to insist that they be given their own unique name to differentiate them from normal, God-given, natural sets that have length.

Measure theory is a mathematical field in real analysis that focuses on measures ("size" or "probability" of subsets), measurable functions and integrals and which investigates σ-algebras.

Applications of measure theory are useful in the fields of statistics and probability.
