Toxic Femininity

The feminist movement has probably done more damage to the culture of this country than any other radical movement in modern history.
It pains me to say it, but you are correct. IMO, it was taken too far. Now, no one knows their place, their role. I think that is causing a lot of the anxiety and depression taking over. Before, there were defined roles. People felt more secure.

Guys sit here and talk so much :censored2: about women when in reality we would be lost without them. I mean who is going to vacuum? Do the laundry? Cook? And make peanut butter and jelly sammichs?

Defined role is un-American. You might as well live in North Korea with that thinking. Lol

It's gotten to the point of demonizing women who choose to be mothers. The cultural implications are not a mystery.

OP, that's only in the immoral Urban :poop:holes called Big Cities.
Suburban & Rural America still has a strong American morality and family structures.

It is happening all over. Look at how many couples get divorced and the fathers start new families leaving their children behind from their first marriage. Or women who think they don’t want to be bothered with a man and have children by themselves one way or another. I have a friend who has two children who have never met their dads. She is from a very close religious Catholic family but just chose to do it that way. Another woman I know chose to go through a sperm bank.

Is it the feminist movement that's doing all that at this point? For example women who fought hard for equal funding for girls sports are shocked that the Left is trying to force allowing biological males to participate as girls. We see even Pelosi pushing for gender neutral terms to be used as if pronouns convey inequality. Is that feminism or radical leftist progressivism? I'm perfectly fine with women having an equal playing field for jobs. They have to prove themselves just like men or get demoted/fired.

Studies have been done showing that the new wives often push their husbands to focus on their children and not on children from a previous marriage. Experienced that with my stepmother when I was 12. She wasn't pleased that my dad kept pushing to get custody of us and ultimately did when I was 14. Used to take out her bad day on my sister. To the point after waking to whimpering sounds when I was 19 I walked in on her grabbing my sister by the hair and hitting her with a wire hanger. She jumped up and left the room and I spoke to my dad about it that night. Told him I'd call the county if I ever saw her doing that again. Point is there's a reason that wicked step mothers are part of our cultural lore. It's not always the dad abandoning his previous children.

Don’t need a study to know just because you’re a parent that doesn’t make you a good parent. We aren’t allowed to pick our parents so, I know it’s difficult but we can’t control what happens to us at a young age. It’s just a shame because the effects of a bad parents seem to crack a persons foundation which sticks with them for life.
Thank god I had good parents and a great up bringing. I really do feel bad for kids who had :censored2: parents.

I read that about studies done in a magazine when I was about 15. It explained a lot. My mom had real issues and my dad never gave up getting us away from her. And as adults we got along with our stepmother much better. Just came to realize like most people she had issues too but she really loved my dad. I just know from personal experience it takes two to tango and it's not always a dad's fault.

If someone is so closed minded to just throw out a blanket statement like “the dad/males are always the problem” means they don’t understand what they are talking about. Or they could be basing their opinion on their own person upbringing with a toxic father.
People are complicated and so is the solution.

I hope you didn’t mean me because I know there are plenty of women who walk away and plenty of women who are crazy. Lol. I should have prefaced it with “for instance”.

This is it gentlemen. This is what we get for allowing women to vote, hold leadership roles, influence law and our American way of life.

Some how, some way, we need to bring things back to the good ole days. "When men were men, and women knew their place."
women mistook going to work for liberation lol.

I'm really more concerned about the state of the family than the state of the workplace. If every family committed to a: staying together, and b: having one parent stay home to raise the kids, it would diminish the available workforce, driving wages up, and making it more possible to raise a family on a single income. Beyond that, there are many other social benefits to strong families. But strong families don't need government involvement, so leftists hate that idea, they can't stand not being able to control other people's values.
Feminism is one of the best things to happen to corporate America, along with war, and illegal immigration.
yes women entering the workplace certainly was one of hte major reasons real wages have stopped rising since 1973
