Yep, just threw up a bit. No one here expects you to be convinced.
I did. I have no issues with Jesse’s articles. He is weak when he says things like “many progressives think…” but that’s fine.
I certainly don’t disagree that sexual hormones are powerful and I’m not saying sexual differences don’t exist, but when you say that women of prior generations have done 90% of household chores because of nature, you expose a great ignorance of the hell most women felt while they were trapped in by a Mad Men culture - a culture you seem to long for.
The use of modern technology has made any physical gender difference moot.
It’s a big stretch to say most women find housework to be “hell”. I know many who don’t.
Also, the life of a housewife has been the norm for women since recorded history began, which indicates there’s some innate reason for it.
Not at all. Even if that were the case, millions of years of evolution is not going to be changed overnight.
The expectation of doing household chores was just ONE component of the hell women lived with. They were objectified, excluded from most every job other than secretary, not allowed to have bank accounts or credit cards, and could not vote.
So, not a stretch at all. Just further evidence of your ignorance.
If he’s looking at a 50’s housewife, with all the machines, he’s not comparing the sum of labor expended by women for centuries.
A lot of women didn’t care about that stuff. That’s true even today. My millennial wife doesn’t care about politics, doesn’t like work and enjoys the attention of being attractive. Almost all the women I’ve ever known are the same way.
It’s a strawman anyway, since this little sub-topic is nature vs nurture.
Does she have a credit card?
Would she be fine with being told she cannot vote?
Your slimy responses ignore the things that you have no good answers to.
No, it is a valid response to your statement:
Yes, she has a credit card that her parents manage. She’s never voted and has no interest in politics.
Again, strawman. Nature vs nurture and shit women weren’t allowed to do are two different topics
One day,
after you two become adults,
I’ll perhaps get back to you.
