    I’m willing to believe there’s women who want the sort of old fashioned patriarchal family dynamic

        Yes, it was pretty cozy being a military grunt. Sucked when orders were poor but also very relaxing in the “not my problem I don’t have to think” way

      Yes, but it’s a careful what you wish for situation. A lot of influencers in the trad wife space have found that while preaching the optics of the lifestyle of “submitting to a man” is lucrative to a predominantly male audience, the reality is detestable. Some of them are fully trapped by their decisions and absolutely miserable while publicly performing a form of femininity which deprives them of autonomy.

      Once women have been emancipated from having this be their only choice the only way to force that happen at scale is violence. It’s not the first time this has happened. The black death decimating populations had women as business owners and guild members and fighting for that to stay a thing once the population rebounded. The witch trials rode on the backs of these same sentiments of women needing to be controlled and treated as broodmares and the mass executions of “bothersome” women forced generations into extremely narrow confines.

      Progress can be undone. What keeps it from happening is understanding the horror of regression and the humanity of those effected.

      For sure, but considering all the women who’ve simply been manipulated and abused by men in their lives and aren’t at the point of getting out of it…

      I mean, if you read this guy’s comment about women “malfunctioning” and “destroying civilizations” as anything but incredibly toxic I’m geuinely worried.

        I’m sure there’s women who are fine with or even agree with that sort of toxic ideas, so it might not be a problem for them

        It could be pretty chill to just be at home doing shit while the partner works, but might get boring after a while
