That is something that has always chapped my behind as well-the women that fight against and place obstacles in the path of other women. While I do not agree with it, I kind of understand the resistance from men. They see it as losing status and power. But why would women resist? That feels like an even worse betrayal to me. I came to the conclusion that those types of women have been indoctrinated so completely into the patriarchal system they can’t even conceive of anything else. They must, perhaps subconsciously realize they are only “borrowing” power from men. And so they fight tooth and nail for men and the status quo even when it means fighting against their own rights. The name Phyllis Schlafly still makes my lip curl up in a snarl.
It wasn't all that long ago when a woman's only identity was from her husband or father. To feel better perhaps or for her own protection she had to be her husband's or father's willing follower and always defend him, not herself. I love reading history, but it's pretty glum where women are even mentioned. I hear you. Ruthie B
Phyliss Schafly is the reasonwe don't have an Equal Rights Amendment, She campaigned against it. Schafly, Boebert, MTG, ACB perceive themselves as beneficiaries of the status quo.
Like Clarence Thomas, Tim Scott and every gay Republican very comfortable as "house slaves". KIssing the masters ass, brings rewards, better pay, jobs, fame, career advancement and for women, the safety and security she perceives she will enjoy as a Handmaiden,, until her protector and provider tires of her and trades her in. Then she will see the error of her ways...Met quite a few like that.
Yes. I’ve seen it too. Many women, even after their male partners have traded them in for newer, younger models, attack and denigrate the new woman rather than the male partner and rather than acknowledging the patriarchal system than not only allows it but in many ways encourages it.
