    Is there a link between fall of the male breadwinner, rise of women employment and falling birthrates? Especially in advanced countries.

      Yes but she will never explain this because it will debunk her whole ideology lol

    In the end, this merely exacerbates the problem of dysgenics. The more consciously "liberated" a woman is--that is, the more educated and intelligent--the fewer children she tends to produce. When the best of a society prefer barren to fruitful wombs, first human greatness vanishes, then civilization collapses. England has already experienced the first step: English greatness is entombed in history, it is dead. Since greatness is all that matters, the ongoing decline and fall present as an afterthought to me.

    Why is it seen as a great development for women to spend less time with their husband and family and more with a boss who hates them? What is the evidence that women generally want economic freedom and self-sufficiency, away from their significant other? What is the evidence that mothers who work to provide for their family feel happier than mothers who work by choice or choose not to work in order to raise their kids? Same goes for men who spend more time with family, compared to men who go out and spend most of their time working. Why are people trying to make the point that women and men have the same goals? What do you say of declining female happiness, increasing divorce rates, and what some claim is to be the decline of the family structure?
    I am not saying that women should be forced to stay indoors. I am saying - why is the highest good in male-female relations considered to be the situation where both husband and wife have a job away from home, and both have equal roles to their family? There are so many unanswered questions, and to me it seems that this way of thinking has completely misrepresented the lives and ambitions of most women (and men) and has hijacked the conversation in favor of political conversion and a certain type of indoctrination.

      I notice that sometimes she says that women are more highly regarded -- respected -- if they are paid.

      @@johnstewart7025 isn't that at the fault of society which places at a higher regard and respects more the women which aim to be high earners like some men? isn't that at the fault of society for not respecting feminitity and therefore the conversation should be different?

      @johnstewart7025 Před měsícem

      @@mrcheckhammmer So, you are saying it isn't good enough that women are more highly regarded if they work for money. You won't them to be highly regarded even if they stay at home and do care work. But, has care work ever been valued in any kind of society? (Actually, I believe there are some historical examples of that.)
