If only this white woman realized, it's not "women of color" who are her natural allies, it's white men.

As an Asian that picked up multiple languages, it's obvious that many concepts that one (like west) deem as a given IS NOT A GIVEN in other races / cultures.

Try Chivalry. doesn't translate to some languages, and that's why those cultures traditionally they won't say WOMAN AND CHILDREN FIRST like the West does when they run for their lives.

Or 義 in Chinese - will translate somewhat into Japanese 義理 but this social concept of helping people just for its goodness doesn't exist in many parts of Middle East. To believe someone is your "ally" for having a similar physical attribute is dangerously naive.

It is interesting to consider that, while not deliberate, men have invented women out of most of their traditional jobs. Tasks that housewives used to do can be done by devices that are less that $100, or $50 even.

In the timeline of technology, I think that male contraception will come much more earlier than satisfactory sex bots and artificial wombs and that the impact will be greater than either of them individually.

The entire structure of government relating to families currently operates under the assumption that men have no rights to choose parenthood, even victims of sex crimes. So when men take that choice away from government and women via pharmaceuticals, there's going to be a massive paradigm shift.

Interesting take but I think it's more than "All because of feminism". Men invented all the great machines to "free" themselves of labour and everything too even as millions of them lost high paid craftsmith jobs and blue collar jobs.

So me it's more of, even as a woman that's PRO-EQUALITY OF OPPORTUNITY - "Yeah take that Feminists, you've everything you asked for now, you're free of the 'biological commitments imposed by Patriarchy'. NOW compete like a Equal human does and stop whining about man not paying for your date or note treasuring you for what you are (because you're a whiny womanbaby)."

I'm happy how my career turns out, but I think many of those grievance-based SJW Feminists would have their world crumble upon them when they've no more excuses.

:D

By the way, in case some Middle Easterners retort about them having "Brotherhood" in helping each other, remember that their term (also a Muslim virtue) means they help their BROTHERS, whoever meeting their defination. Not really like the west or East Asia.

It is common among Jews and Arabs. Iranians seem to be the most westernized set of Muslims or middle easterners.

Yeah.some concepts in the west are great but the altruism aspect is weird. Many people believe they are always oppressed or they are fighting the man.

Nah, Feminists are much more ingrained in their ideology. It has been going on since the 60s.
