- What does International Year of the Woman mean to you?
These women were skeptical of women's liberation, and the year of recognition didn't mean a thing.
This report aired on ABC TV on April 14, 1975.

"Women are in great danger of being dominated by women, being told how to liberate themselves" damn.. So much insight and still so humble
Tjat is so true
@Tom Cross hm? What do you mean? I don't understand what you're trying to say.
@Tom Cross What about the women who prefer to live in that kind of lifestyle? Saying they're trapped is just arrogant.
Well said
@@garyoakham9723 I totally agree with you! Feminism is the worst thing that has ever happened to women and that's the total truth.

"If they want to do their own thing, let them do it" - well, if that isn't women's liberation in a nutshell.
No it's not ,feminists DESPISE housewives and stay at home mothers
@@SRBOMBONICA86 no feminist fight for a choices. As a man or woman you can choose what you want to do.
@@LadySV you know that's not true ,feminism is a very extreme ideology that doesn't respect housewives at all
Србомбоница that’s so untrue , feminism is about giving choice and respecting that choice , just because you met one ignorant “feminist” who never read about feminism doesn’t mean that’s what feminism is about
Women's liberation are fighting to dismantle the family unit. And sadly, it's working because people are eating it up.
They like “liberated from what?!” 🤷🏽♀️
Based
Liberated from their easy lives of being taken care of.
@@cockoffgewgle4993 In those days, taking care of the house and the children took a lot more time and effort than it does now due in part to technology.
Also, to my knowledge, men weren't miserable because they had to bring money to the table while their wives took care of the household, as you seem to suggest.
@@GamingBT Everything took a lot more time and effort than it does now. The paid work that men did was much harder and more dangerous. Would you rather work down the mines, go to war or look after kids and clean the house?
I didn't say they were miserable. Just that they had the harder job.
It wasn't that long ago. I mean they had washing machines and stuff in the 70s didn't they?
The whole point of women’s liberation is to give women the right to CHOOSE. If they want to stay at home with the kids THATS FINE if they want to go out and earn the money THATS FINE - you shouldn’t look down on anyone for their choices. Note though: No matter which you choose you should have the same rights in that field as men or anyone else in that role whether it’s at home or in the workplace.
Yes, I agree! Sadly, women's liberation has only been done in the name of neoliberalism, nowadays both men and women are expected to earn money instead of sharing care work and careers equally. Only recently have men started to spend more time with their children.
Well said
Absolutely!!
Except that the reality IS that women are looked down on for being homemakers. I see it all the time in the office I work in.
Women always had the right to chose. Second wave feminism was a rue to distabilise the family and get a cheaper larger work force...
To think, these people (if they're still alive) are 40 years older now. It would be fascinating to hear their comments now.
It would be fascinating actually
It's like a 10 year reunion. I think that's what he meant. 🤷♂️
Glamorous Taee i think this way of thinking is a bit sexist actually. As a girl i really dont believe we are miserable. If youre a feminazi then yeah, probably. But if your a normal woman with ambitions and family, then i would say that being independent and really free is way better than being taken care of
Yes, they were way ahead of their time.

Guess who financially supports that goal
@@lain7758 well at that age it would either be social security or a husband.
I think the CHOICE to be a either a housewife or a businesswoman is the important thing here. Both lifestyles done well should be respected.
@Sinead Dowling it is OK for men to stay home. They don't want to for the most part.
@@Ignasimp Then why are so many still living at home with their parents? I call bull. Plenty of men would love to stay home. But very few women would want to pay to take care of them.
agreed , these days housewives are shamed by feminists and even told they're weak and oppressed , instead of highlighting their role and how important it is to the well being of society. both roles should be celebrated and not looked down upon, the most important thing is choice , a woman forced to work and earn money is not exactly empowering, is it ? these days the fact that women work in some countries it's considered a prestige while in others it's a must in order to survive . life is harder , more expensive and more competitive , it isn't as simple as the old days , many older women in my country don't even speak English cause it's our third language , they don't know what feminism is but they found themselves obliged to work because their husbands' salaries weren't enough anymore and both of the partners do what they can to guarantee a good and bright future for their children . we need to stop seeing the world as the western world only , we shouldn't forget that people's lives are different everywhere
@@jeannedarc5351 I'm not sure that is true. I would definitelly not want to stay home.
@@Ignasimp you must be all grown up and out of your parents house. It's becoming less and less common for young men at least.
It's 2019 and now both women and men are looked down on if they're a stay at home parent.
Don't worry about what people think. DO WHAT SUITS U & YOUR FAMILY 👍🏼
@Best Of Everything Perhaps if his wife has the better paying job then it would make sense. A lot of men care about children in a way that women do not, and it might actually be a better arrangement in that regard.
Men should provide. Stay at home dads are an embarrassment if they dont provide any money.
@@ryanlafferty5948 The statistics tell us that umemployed men with a wife that works are far more depressed than otherwise. The situation interacts not just with female social expectations, but male social expectations. Men are looked down on if they dont work, called lazy. Ordinary men are accused of being pedophiles, see to those fathers that get accused on the street just for taking their kid out for a walk.
Capitalism did that.
The last woman knew where it was at, you cant generalise with people, some women are happy to let the man do everything and some want to do it themselves, there's no right answer as long as all women have the freedom to make that choice, but going around telling women who don't care they need to fight for their right when theyre already happy is akin to bullying.
Optimistic Whovian yes. Why do so many men reject this logic and instead generalize everyone?
I think the thing is if a woman is at home and not out making a career for herself then the PC players don't like it because it accentuates a stereotype and infuriates them if a woman is happy to just be a home maker and has no ambition which goes against their cause. @@DiamanteDea
@@DiamanteDea when such minority is so loud and dangerous humans tend to generalise and focused on the negative and believe every situation is the worse . quite a cynical approach.
"all women have the freedom to make that choice" ...yes be woman are still victims of the environments and societies they are exposed to..like why are men only 20% of the nursing profession if we are free to choose what we want do..or why are men 95% of the construction industry?
Optimistic Whovian yes but battered woman syndrome and Stockholm syndrome are also a thing... as is being comfortable to a certain dogma and being afraid of change
An back in the day when a family could live a pretty decent life on one wage. Nostalgia.
It's at least unfair women being told that they should stay home taking care of the children while their husbands bring the money home .

One of the most important things ever recorded- 2:16

@@BadgerBotherer1 It isn't dangerous, and it has been tested. Nice try, sweetie. 😊
The death rate means nothing. Half a million people have died so far. Millions of people have been infected and now have a preexisting condition.
That comment from the woman at 2:50, I feel! I don't have any issue with other women doing whatever they want; I love being a stay at home mom and homemaker and it's not fair that other women look down on me for being traditional!
I 100% agree. I used to work in childcare and when I would tell women at the park “oh he’s not my son. I’m his teacher and nanny after school until his parents get home from work” I’d so often get the response of “I couldn’t imagine working with kids all day! That’s SO hard”. Yet now as a stay at home mom I get looked down on. The conversation of “what do you do for work?” is always followed by, wow you’re so lucky you get to stay home all day, as if I’m relaxing with my feet up. Interesting when it was my paid job I was applauded, now that it’s unpaid (yet the most important job I’ve ever done and ever will do) I’m shunned..?
The women who look down upon the likes of you are the women that are deathly afraid of seeing themselves for who they are
Same, i just want to ensure i have a nice home, eat well and have time to do some art and read and think. I've never seen any appeal for myself in having a big career, and i was always more stressed and less happy when i had to work a typical job
Why should anyone look down on you for choosing the traditional path? With emphasis on choosing, after taking in consideration what this will mean for your present and future life. Talking about money, financial independence, the possible case of a divorce, the death of your husband, your retirement. Where I live it’s nearly impossible to only make a living off of one income. Not talking about buying a house and having children. But honestly I wouldn’t want to be a stay at home mom. Was on maternity leave for 1 1/2 years with my first child, it was exhausting bc I felt that I was not able to provide the “entertainment” at home that my daughter needed when she turned 1. I was so happy to get back to work and earning money on my own, talking to adults, seeing that I am more. Not only a mom. And seeing her having the time of her life being together with other children in daycare. I’m happy for everyone where this lifestyle of mom stays at home, daddy makes the money works. But unfortunately this makes women anxious about leaving her husband when things don’t work out any longer. Seen this a couple of times and it makes me sad and angry at the same time. And btw, where I live it’s totally common and traditional since 80 years that woman go back to work after their child turns one one. Possible bc the government provides daycare, you have to pay for it but this is totally fine to me.
They 'look down' because they're miserable and need to elevate themselves into feeling 'liberated'. It just comes down to power and gender roles. Traditional is still best so keep doing you and don't worry what they think. We're naturally supposed to function as family units and feminism is in direct conflict with that ideal. It's all ideology and subversion really.

@@rebeccagreen7241 the women honor their femininity. As a man, every women I see is just amazing, compared to the west. Especially my women. She can easily go out there and run her own business alone, but she rather does it with me. She puts full trust in my masculinity, this makes her feel safe and allows her rest in her femininity. In turn, whatever I give her she converts it into something beautiful. They're also brutally in what they want e.g. Man has the penis, he goes out and brings the resources. Woman has vagina, she receives and creates something beautiful. Harmonious. That's what Eastern European women embody. It's virtually similar to the pre-WWII American women but in a more modern coat.
@@eppsislike of course, I am sure that every woman in "The East" is the same in that regard. Like, the masculine ones for example. Or the ones that want to give rather than receiving. Or the ones that are not quite harmonious but like to contrast.

Back in the days when we weren't running the Moral Purity Inquisition and people felt perfectly comfortable saying "I legitimately don't care about that issue".
However, there was somewhat of an ethnic purity inquisition going on.
@@muhammadlee- absolutely, plenty of other inquisitions, but far less empty and performative moral purity.
@@vanderbam2741 I don’t know about that. Homosexuality, for example, wasn’t legalized in Australia until 1994. That is a morality inquisition made, the only difference was that it was written into law. Our moral compasses have certainly changed over time and people certainly feel afraid to say certain things, but we enjoy much greater freedoms today then we did back then and people are allowed to express themselves in whatever way they wish with the ability to marry whomever they wish.
hahahahaha are you that obtuse? What you've described is literally 100% of what is featured in this series of interviews which in reality document the dominant cultural tropes and ethical mores of those interviewed. It is a parade of misogyny.
@@muirgirl is it your place to tell other women their perspectives are misogynistic? You are denying them agency. Hence the relevance of the woman who said "women are in great danger of being told what to think".
“Women will be dominated by other women”...,hummm... feminism bullying me for not being a feminist. Sounds similar.
Real men are feminists
Some women are pressured into staying at home (and others are shamed for wanting to). The word, “feminism” has unfortunately been misused countless time. It’s definition is, “advocating for the equality of the sexes”. Men and women should have options. Feminism (the real version, not the misused version of the word) is literally about gender equality.
@@ezra8545 eheh, actually confirming the bias.
Being respectful is not equal to being a feminist.
Thinking something, sharing values, doesn't make you anything. In order to call your self part of any group you should let some ACTION follow.
Otherwise it's just making your ego bigger using the work of other people, that would make you a scam.
So please, no, if you are happy that women are also humans you are not a feminist, you are a decent person.
@@niamhha9014 my opinion, i think we should all stand for equality. So thats why I think that real men are feminist

@@Peasham Well we agree for the most part. Yea i have a sister, a niece and a mother who i'm very close with. I also have a lot of friends that are women. I did have a gf but we broke up not to long ago because she wanted to persue a career and didn't have time for a relationship. I respect her choice and each to their own. I just don't believe ideologies should be forced on women whether it be equality, femenism, equal rights or what ever they want to call it. I agree 100% with that last lady in the interview.
I think they were afraid of the unknown, that being the work force, managing household, children etc. (edit: had to add this) now we all are equally miserable.
Seems they had the sense to see the issue ahead and now half the women don't even have the sense to see how choices could be negatively impacting them, let alone the sense to change course.
@Vintage Farmer Yup, and then they sold us out by trusting feminists with their future.
And they probably wanted children to be raised in a healthy home with strong values, something that isn't all too common now. I feel bad for kids who grew up without a mother taking care of them at home, because they were too busy working, such a cold feeling.

Yeah that I see is where the issue is, because if the status quo is that everyone works then it's really hard for anyone to stay at home without being stigmatised.
I agree with the idea that people should be able to do what they want, but the problem is that it'll always be more difficult to go against the flow.

She volunteers at my daughters school, and for our community. I've never forced her to do anything supported her in all her ventures, helped with bake sales. Let me tell you, she is beyond happy, and I am as well, homecooked meals and family time all the time.

I wish for this 😩 a 9-5 for me is soul crushing!
Not all men stick by their family.. some women let go of their careers, their health and bodies to give her man kids. Then simply she is replaced for a younger thing. So then she becomes undateable for being single mom with children. Undesirable for being old and having a body of a mom. Has to work in low income jobs to support the kids and help with homework and take care if the house. Meanwhile, the man is living single back to dating in day two. Some don't even pay child support. He can change his mind about being a husband with way less consequences. His career is still intact. And he doesn't have the kids to take care of them on a daily basis.
So when marriage goes south men only lose money if they had money to lose. But women lose everything.
So I am so happy for you and your family. But women sometimes chose to work because that's their only security. Even if takes away from her time with the family. Sadly, women even while working still are the ones expected to take care of children and household. It is just more and more responsibility and burden tbh.
That last one where she says that it's not men who are trying to control women but it's women trying to control other women
It’s crazy innit
Gfsss da
So true
Currently feminism doesn't seem to understand this
No because the women(people) she talked about were telling women that they should have the RIGHT TO CHOOSE.
How does her sentence make any sense? Saying "hey you have the right to choose what to do!" is NOT "telling others what to do"
This just shows how much our society degraded. We used to have proper families and division of labour. Man goes out hunts and woman stays and takes care of the house and children

Morally advocating for gender equality while assuming that genders are very different even in the relevant sense (in issues of voting, being in charge, etc.) just does not make that much sense.

The last lady is very smart and foreseeing...
Simone de Beauvoir, author of The Second Sex, and feminist icon that most of today’s rhetoric is based on was a raging lesbian. She did not want to deal with men outside of the one in her own very tragic love story. How would her philosophies make determinations for women who actually do want men and children? They don’t. However people blindly follow the blind and we are here now.
If we want people to do what they want, we need to stop telling them what to do.

I think what women’s liberation is actually about is just giving women the right to choose. There’s nothing antifeminist about being a stay-at-home mum, and there’s also nothing wrong with working. It’s all about having the right to go with your inclination.
@Pouty MacPotatohead that's more the economy than the feminist movement
@Pouty MacPotatohead Speak for yourself thanks, I feel quite liberated
@Pouty MacPotatohead Thank you for highlighting this important difference: that while you speak about women in general, which you have absolutely no business doing, I speak about my own personal experience, which is a field of knowledge on which I have absolute competence and authority. I am deeply grateful for the fights of feminists before me and I enjoy the fruits of these fights every single day. I feel way more liberated than both my mum and my grandmas, who faced limitations I don't have to face - thanks to their efforts and committment. I'm sorry you consider it 'strange', but unfortunately you don't get to decide how an entire gender feels or thinks. Perhaps you are the one who has been fooled in this regard: I'm sure convincing you of it would be hard.
@Pouty MacPotatohead Well look at this, I'm exactly as qualified as you and we disagree. Call me names as long as you want: it won't help us much in this discussion I'm afraid, but if it can help you feel better, by all means go ahead ✨
@Pouty MacPotatohead Lol which statistics have you presented so far? Nothing you have stated has been accompanied by sources, numbers, or anything more tangible than vague sweeping claims. It was low-ball to call me deluded and brainwashed, but again I do understand how you would need to resort to that, so I don't particularly care about it.
Before the Rockerfeller's foundation destroyed the women and the family.
I would argue that the baby boomers destroyed men, woman and the nuclear family structure with all their nefarious lies that they told their children and all the corrupt, democrat politicians and policies they voted in.
Not every woman has the desire or "opportunity" to be supported by a man, so it's important for women to be given a fair go to look after themselves.
IglooDweller they do have a fair go at things being a feminist nowadays is completely useless.

The biggest failure of feminism was undervaluing a mother's work.
I would argue modern feminism is focused on embracing all women. Most feminist art you see on social media it's very much based in diversity and websites/forums/gatherings are actively policing people who are racist, transphobic, shaming mothers.
Dead Locke amen yes. feminism, like all worthwhile movements, was subverted and destroyed the nuclear family. now look at a couple generations raised from babies in institutions called daycares....... void of empathy, aggresive arseholes.

Gavan so you say women shouldn’t be equal? Because there is more than just modern feminism.
@@suedetree970 ...examples?
I support women who wants to be housewives but one thing that my mother always taught me was what if your husband leaves you one day and your parents are old and can't support you? Who will feed you? When my father was in a bad position financially my mother started going out to earn and that's how i realized how important it is to have financial independence.... People from first world countries will never realize the reality of us🙏 sorry but i believe in financial freedom
I wouldn't say it's a first world thing, as I guess I come from a country like that and trust me, financial independence is something I am extremely keen to hold onto. Being a house wife makes you financially dependent on your other half, and with that comes a vulnerability. It's fine if they are a nice, decent human being, but I understand emotionally and intelligently the risks of being in that position
I’m going to get a degree and am pretty intelligent, but I still want to be a housewife and I don’t plan on marrying a man who doesn’t treat me with respect or knows my value.
Boy, I was never taught that some weren't fussy on the thought of women taking over men's roles. My generation was taught that all the women from the past felt oppressed in their very defined roles. This is not what I am hearing at all. Maybe like so many other things; society believed what the media propagated. I grew up feeling guilty, very guilty because when I grew up I wanted to be a wife and mother. That was looked down upon. I was shamed for it.

Women who want to work and women who want to stay at home should be equally respected. Both contribute in different ways towards uplifting the society. The only thing that shouldn't be compromised on is education.
And the only people saying otherwise are the ones trying to keep them in the home.
I work 3 days a week and educate my toddler the other two days. I'm constantly surprised by how many father's are at kindygym, swimming or playgroup too. They always seem happy and actually play with their toddlers while the mummies chat. There's a 17 year difference between my eldest and youngest. So I've seen the difference, there are more father's at home with the babies. I do think those children with daddies that help out with their babies in this way are helping to create more stable adults for our future societies
Birds born in cages think flying is an illness. And then when the door is finally and slowly opened, flying doesn't interest them anymore. Anyways, everybody should be free to choose whatever they like, and to be free from rigid cage-like expectations as well, be it marrying your career, or marrying a man and being a housewife with 5 kids.
Anyone who wants to have a say in how others should live their lives and what they "should want" to, according to gender, race etc, can get the hell away from our democracies and live in North Korea or Saudi Arabia, or back to the 17th century, so their lives can be dictated by others, down to even their wishes, dreams and thoughts.

Well said.
I was born in ‘76 to a full on feminist mum, all I wanted to be when I grew up was a wife and a mum but was made to feel that wasn’t a worthwhile ambition. Now aged 43 I still think that I would have been really happy with that life choice.
Single monogmous partnerships between men and women, where men take care of physical tasks and women take care of the house and children, where both prosper together and are equally important, are the only stable units in society. It's the way it's been throughout history. The idea that men have oppressed women for millenia is a gross lie; for most of human history, men and women were BOTH oppressed by nature, having to hunt or farm for a dozen hours a day almost every day of the week, and the children were just taken care of by the grandmothers or those truly unsuitable for work (mentally/physically ill, etc.). It isn't too late to live the life you want to live if you can find a man suitable for it, but part of the problem is that men have been trained to become competitive against women as feminism has set up the idea of an eternal struggle between both sides of the species.
T B I totally agree with everything you say. Happily I do have that traditional set up now and it works beautifully and very harmoniously. It’s just a shame that I raised my son on my own before finding that the traditional family set up I always wanted and felt was the ideal scenario works perfectly for me. My feminist mother now in her 60’s thinks my life has come to nothing as ‘just’ a housewife and dog mum, whatever, me and my husband have been face up in heaven for 6 years, it just works really well all round, everyone feels taken care of.
@@jessie-maybelle I'm not religious, but it's great to hear that your life is so blessed. There is nothing wrong with not wanting a working career, value exists in more forms than financial.

Why do we need an "international women's year"? Why do we even need a "women's month"? As if we are trying to say that, oh, when women achieve things in life, it is so grand, because well, not all women are so special or capable of grand achievements? Listen, if women want to work, let them work. If women want to stay home and raise the family, let her choose to do so without shame. My mom was the main provider for many years and my dad was the stay-at-home parent who also had a side business. My mom said to me herself that she would be incredibly bored if she had to stay at home but she also respects my decision to stay at home. And she was born in the '50s to an extremely conservative Catholic family. Mom is still a strong conservative Catholic to this day, but she is also still a hard working woman with the incredible capability of co-running a family and her career.
I'm so sick of the shaming coming from BOTH SIDES.

Very interesting to have these opinions recorded this way, an excellent resource.

This. Some women in the interview said they were quite happy with their lives. Why do they have to be forced by other women to live a different way "in order to be happy." Why do others decide for you what will make you happy? It's nonsensical. It's the opposite of what it claims to stand for, "women making their own decisions," more like "women being told what to do by other (unhappy) women."
Chandler Treu maybe it’s because some straight women want to have the life they want to live, they want to be in the work force and live for themselves without a man. But without the help of all women, they would still be at the mercy of men. Sometimes it’s not about being selfish, you’re more than welcome to be a stay at home mum but some people want a choice.
Yes many women would love to stay at home as is their choice. The same way many women don't. Many women have dreams and ambitions and want to work and stuff and so far i haven't seen a woman tell another woman that she shouldn't be a stay at home mom. What i have seen is many men telling women that they shouldn't be working or that they should stay home because "it's nature" or "you'll be happier".
Personally I like having equal rights to men, I get a lot of satisfaction from education and using my brain for more than chores and raising kids. I will become a surgeon in the future and am happy with the opportunities I have in life. And the option to become a stay at home mum is still available for those who desire to do so
That last one has such a depth of thought i haven't heard that high level of reflection for a loong time
Love how people weren't diplomatic and were clear headed then
My Grandma had 8 children and her husband died with 5 still young. Woman's liberation movement was for her. She was finally able to go to college and got a great job after.
She had a scholarship when she was young, but her parents sent her brother.
They have the wrong idea and so do many people today. It’s about the choice to stay home with your kids be just as respected the choice to join the workforce. It’s all about choice! If you want to stay “traditional”, that’s totally fine as long as you don’t look down on women who want to work. And if you’re working, you shouldn’t look down on the stay at home moms. It’s all about choice
Yes yes yes! I love this, couldnt agree more with you 😊
I agree also, well said 👍
Agreed, but it is harder for mothers to stay at home nowadays as the market is more competitive with double income households. Maybe that price is worth giving women the option to have a career instead of taking on a stay-at-home role? Either way not everyone can be completely happy.
I don't get how this concept is so difficult for people to get. Who wouldn't hate being told what to want, or how they should behave, according to their gender, nationality etc. "I only want a family" Fine. "I only want a career". Fine." I don't want kids" Fine. "I want 5 kids". Fine.
"I want everybody to want to live like me". Or "I want to stifle others' options, because I'm satisfied the way things are now" Yeahh...no :)

Way I see it; gender equality means that women should be able to freely choose how they live . it doesn't mean women should be belittled into doing manual labour even if they don't want to by men or other women. IF you choose to be a business women, great. IF you choose to be a housewife... great! If you choose to be a brick layer, great! that is equality.
the preassure to be what the public accpets as a strong independant woman must be quite scary sometimes for some.
"Women's liberation" is a funny euphemism. Is one supposed to think one is more free working a wagey job instead of focusing on raising a family?
The Nazis had signs in the concentration camp that said - "work will set you free".
Same thing here.
The freedom is the freedom of choice. Of what one might participate in, which is ironic in one sense but whatever.
Christian Hall it just means that women are free to choose (and of course it’s bad that nowadays they’re pretty much forced into work) and yes, you are more free if you work, because you do not rely on anyone for buying power. You’re not in trouble in case of a divorce or in case your partner dies
Well if youre freer raising a family why do so many men refuse to parent their children when their wife has a higher paying job
Christian Hall what i’ve found is ‘things aren’t what they’re calle
Working class women used to be told "have all your teeth removed, so that your husband won't have to pay for your dentist bills" So my grandmother, age 18, had all her teeth removed, and wore dentures her entire life. Women's liberation dared to tell working class girls, that they didn't have to go through that. Granny was born in 1900, but this was carrying on, up to the late 1960's. Most women felt it was their duty to do this so as not to burden their future husbands. Check the teeth situation with these women.

@So Who's the Dummy Now? Well, that's your opinion. And I respect that.
One thing I personally can't stand about this feminist movement, is it's not enough for women, they want to be given special treatment, not equal.
I truly believe God created us equal just in different callings.
I certainly believe, not all women feel they can stay at home and raise a family, or get married. Maybe they feel it's not for them, so they choose a career.
To me it just seems women feel pressured by other women, to be in the work force, and I don't agree with that.
@So Who's the Dummy Now? Yes you made a lot of sense. I see where you're coming from.
@So Who's the Dummy Now? You mention globalism and importing immigrants to decline wages but fail to spot that this all began with using women as a cheap, easily controlled form of labour? That they could invent the feminist movement to be used to devalue every single mans wage to be worth as much as a woman's? That was also used to twist women's minds to believe they should be men, hate being women, should all hate men for injustices caused by the rich and powerful and work all their lives instead, mass exterminating their children not yet born? Destroying single parent incomes forever despite that being the primary method of stable successful civilisation of the human race since year 1? All whilst still expecting men and society to give women special treatment and services as a privileged sex? All culminating in the most unequal society in the last 100 years? Sounds like it was the plan of the rich all along and they got exactly what they planned, immensely richer and untouchable whilst we all squabble for pennies on the ground.

Except it has done exactly that. Feminists promoted pushing women to usurp the male role in society. They wanted the hierarchy dismantled and rebuilt with them in charge. They wanted women to become politicians, CEOs, doctors, lawyers, engineers, scientists, etc. with the support of the government behind them, through affirmative action, quotas, Title IX anti-discrimination, etc. and had no similar interest in "gender equality" for less powerful positions (that's why a majority of welders, for example, are men.

@Lebeman have you ever heard of the saying.." for a major part of the history, anonymous was a woman." There were several women writers who had to write under male pen names to be appreciated. Of course, I doubt you'll even understand all this.
@Lebeman so true, now they want each and every right but no lefts. Men were "superior" because we worked for women our entire history while they stayed at home. So men got to do the shitty jobs, in return they can demand some respect???
