we all know that isn't what we are talking about. If we are supposed to be equal, then lets be equal. No one should be treated differently if they want to go that route.
This affects society more than you think. You have less people getting married. You have less people having kids.
Why do we need more people getting married? Why do we need more kids? I'm not agreeing or disagreeing, but you're making assumptions that these are universally good things being affected by the feminist moment?
What % of time across humanity do you think that things have been equal? What % advantage men? What % advantage women? With rounding it's going to be 0%, 100%, 0% (even with what I assume if your underestimate of the amount of time humans have existed). Can you give me an example of where anything was skewed for so long and then immediately can correct to being perfectly equal? You have a very limited perspective and very little sympathy for what women have gone through.
Men have always had it MUCH harder than women. Western Civilization only exists because millions of men spilled their blood. American Revolution? Mountains of male bodies and unimaginable horror and suffering. Civil War? Mountains of male bodies and unimaginable horror and suffering. WWI? Mountains of male bodies and unimaginable horror and suffering. WWII? Mountains of male bodies and unimaginable horror and suffering. We could go on and on all day.
Men have done all of the back breaking work in actually building and maintaining these societies too. Ever seen a female harnessed at the top of a sky scraper? Ever seen a female roofing a house? Hell, I've never seen a female plumber. Even in the white collared world, female engineers and architects are virtually non-existent compared to males.
Why do women even deserve to be viewed as "equals"? Sell me on it. IMO, they should be eternally grateful for the strong and courageous men who paved the way for them. They can work white collared jobs and live in peace and comfort and sit around and binge netflix and wine or ice cream at night...or doom scroll on social media about how awful men and masculinity are...without a care in the world. THANKS ENTIRELY TO MEN. We LET them do these things by the way. Very few of them seem to be grateful in any way...most just want to prepetually b*tch and play the victim. It's absurd.
Women have not been allowed to do those things through 99% of recorded history.
When weren't legally allowed to fight in WW1 or WW2. They weren't even allowed to be in the military full time until after WW2.
Women weren't allowed to hold construction jobs until the 1970's. Even then they were really only allowed to join unions.
You can't tell them they aren't legally allowed to do something and then complain when they don't do it. And then want them to be grateful that you did it for them. What kind of insane logic is that?
Women, for the most part, didn't want to. Women are born with an intricately valuable resource for society.
Men have to prove and earn their value to society.
Do you understand that fundamental difference?
Then why was it necessary to make it illegal for them to join the military? After they were allowed to join, why was it illegal for them to see combat?
Only outliers wanted to, so there shouldn't be a need for a law, right?
Because women tend to get in the way. And demand special treatment and want men around her to be "gentlemen".
Women once admitted, start demanding lowered bars for them but not the men. That leads to degradation of the service. Just look at how things are today with corporations where they are slaves of woman-dominated HR.
So our wise ancestors just banned women from essential services like military. No silly demands, no controversy. But today's men are low-T and beta now and like to believe that women can do the same things men can. Biology doesn't care for that, women still cannot do hard labor tasks or go fight in the front-lines. Don't give me extreme outliers, talk about the median.
The value of women to society is to make babies for the society to go on. So men protect women in all civilizations. But this feminism thing and giving them freebies have ruined society and pushed them into make oriented tasks and pushed men out.
