Ah, there's one other argument that kept popping up in conversations with leftists a few years ago: schools create gender equality by allowing females to work while the state takes care of their children. I bet you don't love this argument either.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Yes, because taking care of your children and the home is apparently "slavery" according to feminists/leftists. This narrative together with "empowerment through careerism" for women has only led to declining birthrates and broken families. But the state feminism narrative goes something like women who wants to stay at home with her child the first years are ”trapped” while a man expressing the same wish is considered to be ”equal”.
Those most affected by state feminism policies are the children. The effect has largely been that women work twice (home+career) and that the children get less time with their parents, which of course also means more stressed parents that in turn have detrimental effects on parenting. Recent studies also show that men who take more responsibility at home have a higher risk of being burnt out. So no one wins in the current situation, least of all the children who barely get to see their parents and develop all the interpersonal and social skills required for the future.
