It depends on what a woman believes is valuable to her.
If you're talking about forging careers and goals, then it's a win. Tons of women are running businesses.
If we're discussing families and the impact it has on children then it's a loss. Not to mention the on-going issues with abortion.
What we do know is that statistically speaking, women are unhappier than they were 60 years ago. The reason for this eludes even the people who conducted the studies.
If I can suggest my opinion, I think social media influence and the money-driven market of dating has disappointed and confused tons of women. Men too..
Love has replaced sex with selling!

Women are still doing both career and home.
However, men are still in upper management and y’all keep voting them in office. These men don’t prioritize families because they can’t make babies. If men could give birth, look out. Pregnancy would be a vacation and after birth would be stellar. Childcare would be free. Shit, it would be free to give birth. Maternal leave would be enviable.
Men haven’t nearly evolved as women have. No offense, but your role models are not that great.
As women become more enlightened, we’re not going to accept getting pregnant with no safety net. Why have a family with a jerk who doesn’t appreciate you? Women don’t have to stick around for mediocrity.
Instead of getting rid of abortion make it attractive to get pregnant.
I feel like men are digging in their heels and resisting their own evolution, committing crimes, dropping out the workforce

The maternity leave has nth to do with men and everything to do with making more money, I live in a third world country where macho men are everywhere even in the government and yet women still get their three month paid maternity leave, and less working hours once they resume just to have more time to breastfeed, we have equal pay, equal rights, women don't have to pay alimony even if they make more money and no child support as well,
So maybe the enemy is not the man but rather the big companies that are slaving everyone away(men and women) in the USclick to expand

Let me tell you something crazy. If you want a man to do his fair share in the home you have to make him a stay at home father. Let me clarify this to say he won’t do the majority of the housework. He will just split the load with you. Only when you make 100% of the income will men split household responsibilities 50/50. There is NO scenario in a marriage when a man will do the majority of the household chores. This is comparable to having a roommate who doesn’t pay any bills but they do clean up after themselves. They don’t do your laundry or anything but they do their own. —?
They can’t even meet their own expectations! How long have we heard that if a woman is a stay at home wife and her husband is the primary earner, then ALL of the household chores and childcare are her responsibility? It’s the least she can do after he worked all day, right? Men don’t believe that when the roles are reversed.
Baby, why would I get married when I am guaranteed to have to carry the majority of the domestic labor unless I make him a stay at home husband, and even then he’s not helping me out in any way, he’s only pulling his own weight?! Absurd. I am just as well off if not better off on my own.

When I look at the workplace now, I see a lot more women and I wonder where all the men are?
College was pretty much even.
Im in my 40s and I wonder why the boardroom is full of women. They’re buying their own homes. Yadda yadda yadda and I wonder where are the men in these spectrums.
20s you’re young and dumb
30s you start making better decisions
40s you should be fairly stable
So what happened men? What were some of y’all doing for the past 15-20 years.
Jail is an acceptable answer

The egalitarianism that seems embedded in Nordic countries' DNA can be traced back to the age of the Vikings when women in Norse societies had strong positions in the societal hierarchy.
Later during the transition to the modern age, these countries were among the first to give women formalized right to property, to tear down legislative barriers that stopped them from taking professional occupations and also by extending the right to vote to both genders.
They also have progressive childcare and parental leave policies in place that have allowed women to flourish in their careers without the same risk of being penalized in the workplace for having a child as they'd find in other countries maybe.
So the idea of Scandinavia as a socialist utopia is, in some senses, earned over a long time. But it may be difficult for other nations to replicate this model, given the demographic and governmental structures that are quite unique to our part of the world. The Nordic countries are relatively small and ethnically homogeneous, at least historically (my country was very restrictive regarding migration, and I didn’t encounter a person of colour until I finished school. That changed somewhat by now, but it’s still mostly Europeans who migrate), and they have high levels of taxation. There is universal health care, a great welfare program and a living wage. In my country it has been mandatory since 2013 that both parents take at least fourteen weeks of parental leave after birth of their child.
All this does not, however, preclude Scandinavian countries from falling victim to the same gendered notions of work, and what and who is valuable, that pervades societies around the world. Utilizing the link below you can read about this and also the „feminism of difference“ in more detail, and while you may find that some things work out well you’ll also find that our labour market still isn’t perfect and that despite an egalitarian approach men dominate in STEM professions.

Believe it or not in Soviet of my childhood women were paid to leave work after 7 months pregnancy and until child is 3 y/old.
Helped them none!
Then they were paying women for every child extra. Helped ZERO!

So true
If you look at even more research it shows that men don’t enjoy being sexless and single.
I stumbled upon Jordan Peterson and he said something that made me go 🤔.
He said that men find purpose in their relationships. In providing and protecting. In mowing the lawn. In going to work. In being the king of the castle. Cutting that thanksgiving turkey while standing at the head of the table Ala Clark Griswald.
However when men don’t have relationships, they turn into misguided, unproductive, violent, depressed members of society. He said that way before the pandemic and the accompanying rise in violent crime the US is seeing.
With women choosing themselves, with women making more and more money, with women so productive in the workplace….with women choosing singledom, look at the increase in violent crime, murder, domestic violence, carjackings. They’re not as positively productive as they used to be.
I think for men, the switch happened so fast, almost overnight. They were no longer looked at as the sole provider. It could have been an ego blow but as you can see from this thread…men aren’t sharing what happened to them emotionally. How they truly feel.
They just say “we’ll have fun being single.” Lol

Posted by Midnite_RiserPosted by FindingbalancePosted by Midnite_RiserPosted by DMVWomen have only evolved into their own demise. Just take a look around. I have never had any problems with women at all as many fall for me easy. But that's besides the point. We have evolved, past your BS. It's a slow process but many men are waking up. And what sort of complacency are you talking about? Some people never reach the success that they want be it man or woman and that is reality. A woman can reach all the success she wants, guess what? No guy gives a sh**. So then, what difference is that making? A woman could be a billionaire, but if she's not attractive, she is worthless. Sorry to burst your bubble.

Honestly I think the rising numbers of broken families is what led us to this war,
Not many kids are raised in a healthy father mother figure household.
I know single moms are doing their best but I think it's not enough without a father.
And then there's feminism pushing women to believe they don't need a man, and then these red pill podcasters pushing men to believe women should be servants for them, all this
And then there's social media and the hookup culture facilitating cheating
It's really difficult now a days to keep a relationship alive.
I think there's some interesting points, but a lot of nuances.
Agree the manosphere and the more extremist elements of third wave feminism are toxic and create a phony narrative of girls vs boys mainly to younger people.
I think hookup culture existed way before Tinder. Ask any man whose been out on the pull in a bar or club.
I think some single parents are great at taking care of their children, while some plop their brats down in front of cocomelon and go out, but not to work. I've known single parents who are great parents.
Relationships have always been difficult I think less people stay together for convenience that's all that's changed.click to expand

And also look at all these men complaining about women body counts, if you're gonna sleep with a lot of women why do you think you deserve to end up with a virgin?
Biologically speaking men are more in an advantage to find better and we'll paid jobs than women, to have kids late in life and to sleep around without any risk than women, women can't seem to accept that and maybe why they think men are still oppressing them?click to expand

Much of that actually has to do with culture I think. Dating expectations, gender, feminism, rights, raising kids - all that has to do with where you are living. From my perspective there are no gender wars, toxic feminism or incel stuff. Much of that seems centric to the English speaking world, or just the USA.
Here it’s common to live together without being married. It actually is the most common way. We have a lot of single parents too and no one perceives that as a bad thing. It doesn’t come with any stigma.
Regarding hook up culture, how do people meet each other? You are horny, so you go to a club and hook up with someone. Later, if all is good, you maybe go and get a coffee together. You may meet again for more sex. If all is good more casual dating follows, eventually leading into a relationship somewhere down the line. It’s “I want sex, and I’m going to go for it”. Sex is a natural thing here – talked about, encouraged, and considered a healthy and fun thing to do – rather than being kept under lock and key until a man goes through a series of courting rituals to win the woman over. We cannot grasp the idea of waiting to have sex. That’s how it works here. But maybe in other parts of the world, the man is expected to chase and seduce the woman, while the woman holds back on sex because that’s the way to get commitment.
Gender roles are considered antiquated here. Ladies, this means you will open your own door and pay your own bills. The man is not expected to lead or plan the dates; it’s an equal job. And it is not unusual that a Scandinavian woman might be the one to approach a guy in a bar.
Because Scandinavian women LOOKS like a guys so they HAVE to so guy knows it’s a woman…click to expand

I do agree that I hate the current gender wars and it feels like no one really believes in love anymore. it seems most people are more focused on power struggles and who can get over on who first. etc. it’s difficult to trust anyone, when everyone is defensive.
But I don’t know that I agree that women were indeed happier 60 years ago, or if they were just STUCK and more financially dependent back then, which kept them in those marriages. (Not necessarily happy)

I can do some digging and find the studies again. I believe it ties to women working long hours in their careers and then they come home to household duties. Then we need to factor in there is a higher amount of women who simply lack interest in household duties or need the man's help to cook etc. Also, women on average still spend more time with children than men.
Happiness fluctuates. The goal of a relationship is not to be in a constant state of happiness at all times. You see people are chasing the honey-moon phase or rainbows now and it fizzles out. Long-term relationships have become a thing of the past.
I think society confuses unhappiness with mistreatment. Nobody, man or woman should be in a distasteful, abusive or miserable relationship. But this isn't the same thing as being on cloud 9 all the time. The moment things get stale, someone is ready to bounce.
I mentioned earlier in the thread, love is for sale. The idea of a relationship has changed, but the vows you take a marriage have not. For better or worse, until death, care in sickness etc.
All now subject to how someone feels in that moment. Now what did people do differently 60 years ago other then give women equal resources to men. Certainly, all of our grandmothers weren't miserable.click to expand

I think society confuses unhappiness with mistreatment. Nobody, man or woman should be in a distasteful, abusive or miserable relationship. But this isn't the same thing as being on cloud 9 all the time. The moment things get stale, someone is ready to bounce.
I mentioned earlier in the thread, love is for sale. The idea of a relationship has changed, but the vows you take a marriage have not. For better or worse, until death, care in sickness etc.
All now subject to how someone feels in that moment. Now what did people do differently 60 years ago other then give women equal resources to men. Certainly, all of our grandmothers weren't miserable.
But some of them were…click to expand

Women are coddled and handled with kids gloves in literally every way possible. So the women's right movement is fucking silly.
Feminism was only reasonable during the Silent Generation era when women had REAL shit to complain about. Like not being able to vote. But now it's far overreaching and downright misandry in a lot of cases.
By the way, that whole "Women's wage gap" thing is bullshit and has been disproved several time with basic data.

The more power women are given, the quicker humanity descends to it's own destruction. And it is the truth. Look at what's happening today!
Have men evolved along with women ?

No, not in my opinion.

And this statement shows how deluded you really are.
Compare modern male attitudes towards women to those a century ago, and it's almost like night and day. If that's not 'evolution' in your eyes, I suggest you refer to a dictionary for the official definition of that word.
What's happening now is that men are gradually waking-up to fact the playing field is very uneven - they've been expected to 'evolve' and accommodate women's needs, but many women are vilifying, gaslighting and extorting men regardless (while still playing the victim card when it suits them).
A good example is the 'new man' movement, which first rose to prominence in the '80s and gathered a lot of momentum in the '90s. Remember that?
A man "who rejects sexist attitudes and the traditional male role, especially in the context of domestic responsibilities and childcare, and who is (or is held to be) caring, sensitive, and non-aggressive".
This had a positive effect on Western male attitudes, but it has now been conveniently swept under the carpet because it contradicts the toxic feminist agenda.
In recent decades, many men have shown greater empathy towards women and their needs. Maybe now it's time for many women to do the same, instead of selfishly exploiting their own gender for personal gain.

Posted by Midnite_RiserPosted by FindingbalancePosted by Midnite_RiserPosted by DMVWomen have only evolved into their own demise. Just take a look around. I have never had any problems with women at all as many fall for me easy. But that's besides the point. We have evolved, past your BS. It's a slow process but many men are waking up. And what sort of complacency are you talking about? Some people never reach the success that they want be it man or woman and that is reality. A woman can reach all the success she wants, guess what? No guy gives a sh**. So then, what difference is that making? A woman could be a billionaire, but if she's not attractive, she is worthless. Sorry to burst your bubble. Having all of the success and money in the world will not guarentee you love. Because the reality is, what will the interested individual see first?

In all fairness I don't think I've ever seen nano post anything positive in any way ever. It's never fun or positive. Just a problem with some situations or topic.

First of all...crock of shit! Folks be saying "flea attracts fleas; money attracts more money!" not in vain. But that's besides the point...what flew over your head is that, in general, women aren't striving to earn money in hopes to attract a mate, but to crate some form of stability & if fortunate enough, a degree of comfort for themselves. But you cant possibly see that given your inability to pull your head out of your own ass!
That is the lie that is leading women to disaster. It doesn't matter if she reaches her HIGH success career. She will be too damn old and way past her prime. She will get bumped and dumped by the Chads, Tyrons, Ricardos and guys like me. If she still has some sort of attraction left. Just like that old lady that is in her 50s, suicidal and has almost $ 1 million in the bank with no man. Keep up the boss babe stuff. See where that gets you lolclick to expand

What is the most important thing for women’s rights, in your opinion?
@DK please chime in how are women’s rights in Scandinavia. I think that’s like a role model for the whole world.
