“trauma” of being a woman today, which includes, prominently, dealing with men who value them only as sex objects

As if the "liberation" The Pill delivered had nothing to do with that. Once promiscuous sex is decoupled from the risk of commitment demanded in caring for a child, what else did they think was going to happen? Women made themselves into merely sex objects.

'The Pill' was very late in the game.

We could go back to Sophocles but the warnings ramped up in Europe in the 1800s:

"There are people in Europe who, confounding together the different characteristics of the sexes, would make man and woman into beings not only equal but alike. They would give to both the same functions, impose on both the same duties, and grant to both the same rights; they would mix them in all things–their occupations, their pleasures, their business. It may readily be conceived that by thus attempting to make one sex equal to the other, both are degraded, and from so preposterous a medley of the works of nature nothing could ever result but weak men and disorderly women." - Alexis de Tocqueville (1805-1859)

100% true. They wanted the sexual freedom that they perceived men having and they got it. In the process they destroyed those things that made them special and priceless as women. They became merely whores. Male attitudes in female bodies. And few men want to marry that. Have sex with it, yes (because it is easy), but marry it, no.

The Pill was a nuclear bomb on society.
