Which is why Gavin Newsom has an excellent chance in becoming a future President.
I got married young and had kids right away. It wasn’t a bed of roses but we figured it out.
The advantage goes to a small percentage of “player” guys. Joe Average gets ignored or worse through his twenties; eventually he either gives up or tries to import a wife from a third-world country.
Cats gotta live some where.
Men and women are different yep. Since the backstop of birth control, abortion, was ok’d by society and law, the US -culture, politics, economy and general purpose- been primarily geared toward catering to men and their given right to live their adult lives as 17 year old boys and their most base desires.
That is the sexual revolution.
People who don’t acknowledge that are ignorant
Women have been screeching about this lo these 50 years. The boys quietly reap the reward.
This is a case where women are truly door mat stupid. They’ve achieved nothing
Abortion is birth control, don’t doubt that. Without it, all birth control is useless.
As for this gem from the piece:
“…a story of women freed from the burdens of chastity and motherhood…”
Where to even start?
I’ll take a stab.
Chastity is a virtue by ant theological standard
Here’s the catechism, for one:
“ 2345 Chastity is a moral virtue. It is also a gift from God, a grace, a fruit of spiritual effort. Holy Spirit enables one whom the water of Baptism has regenerated to imitate the purity of Christ.Oct”
Looking at this from the Socratic view:
Patience is a virtue so is temperance and honesty. Where they are nothing but a burden bad things occur.
Where virtue is nothing but a burden, bad outcomes occur. Marilyn Monroe and that awful Hugh Hefner, their lives and fates are perfect icons of such.
As for motherhood being a burden, as the statement reads, nothing but a burden, but to be generous let’s just say the point is it’s a regular burden.
We’re all children of mothers. When we view ourselves as burdens, how are we supposed to feel? Or does that just apply to children obnoxious enough to have escaped abortion after 1973 when children began to be a burden as the article seems to allude.
Motherhood- one could easily argue that you get out of it what you put into it plus exponentially more from the grace of doing so with virtue
Same as ant gift from God.
It'll be interesting to see the long term effects on a Western society. I think it will have a big effect on politics eventually. A motivated young man with a purpose can do a lot. Mussolini. Lenin. Hitler.
But just look at the men today....we don't have men, or very few....
panty "waste" fairy boys and men...low testosterone, low sperm, and they need pills to make them feel like men again....
pitiful and pathetic...
congratulations to hugh hefner....and satan...
It happens all too often. Alpha Widows marrying Thirsty Betas.
I.e., women still in love with the Bad Boy Alpha who didn't commit, settling for a desperate incel with a good-paying job who'll gladly settle for sloppy seconds.
She tells him, "Those men were so horrible, they abused me!" The Thirsty Beta plays White Knight. "Don't worry, I appreciate you for your mind. I respect you."
The Alpha Widow often shuts off sex after the birth of their children, then when she hits 40, divorces her Thirsty Beta husband.
She then blogs about her "liberating, new chapter on the journey of my life." Which involves sleeping around to recapture her youth, while milking her ex for alimony and child support.
The real purpose of the sexual revolution was an alliance between the leftists who wanted to destroy the nuclear family, and the industrialists who wanted a larger labor forth for them to expand their businesses.
The convinced 2 generations of women that they’d be happier imitating men rather than be women. And left us to low birthrates that now require us to import foreign labor + shift job elsewhere, neglected children who are raised 2 working parents who have little time for them, and large amount of women who are depressed when they reach their 30’s and 40s and find that their careers aren’t actually as fulfilling as they were promised.
I would disagree. My own wife is even more conservative than I am (if that can be believed).
At the Trump rally last week in Pennsylvania, there were easily as many women then men in attendance (and I have the photos to prove it) and no, they weren't dragged there reluctantly by their husbands. They had the shirts, the hats and were totally into the rally.
Also, there are plenty of men who are squishy beta types who will vote for big government and communism.
With regard to politics, you cannot judge one's political orientation purely on gender.
Because men used to have to compete and display maturity and manhood in order to attract women.
Now women give is away freely and men no longer need to.
The sexual revolution destroyed the lives of many men. And many will pay for their participation forever.
There are pluses and minuses to wives from any country.
What about all those women who voted for Trump?
Gavin Newsome - another sleeze...
I couldn’t handle DJT as a husband - too much for me for sure - but as POTUS I trusted he was looking out for our best interests and had the guts to get things done.
This “revolution” resulted in much more of the same feminists always complained about, only more intense and brazen. Their “freedom” gave free rein to males to take full advantage - with less guilt.
Good to see there is a book about it.
Same old saw.
First, the 19A only universalized woman suffrage. It already existed.
2nd, prove to me that 52% voting Dem these latter decades means all women are reliably commie. It is statistically insignificant (as is 48% men voting Dem) and likely created largely by the more reliable contingents of POC esp. lock-step blacks.
Yes. Because the women you are talking about are happily married to their husbands. Obviously, they are in a stable marriage. Their husbands are reliable providers to them. In 2020 election, women voted 55% for Biden while Trump got 44%.
One of my all time favorite Bunkerisms...
“If you don’t stifle you’re gonna get it like Able did in the back of his head from his brother with a cane!”
