One of the best books I’ve read in the past few years has been: “Domestic Tranquility: A Brief Against Feminism” by F. Carolyn Graglia, published in 1998.
Makes a very strong case that Feminism was started by barren women who did not have kids, did not want kids, or had kids and felt no maternal love for their children. Feminism is an effort to disparage love, marriage and children — an effort pushed by jealous, bitter women.
The book covers women in the workplace before Feminism — lots of career opportunities for women — if they wanted them. But most women found their happiness as homemakers. That continued until the Feminists told the happy women that they were not happy and that they need careers to be happy. Now women have careers — and they’re miserable.
Also covers sex in detail and makes a strong case that men and women back in the “strait-laced” decades (ex. boring 1950s) actually had stronger, healthier, more satisfying sex lives than people do today with the “hook-up” culture.
Feminism has been very bad for everyone: men, children, and especially women.
“...barren women who did not have kids, did not want kids, or had kids and felt no maternal love for their children. Feminism is an effort to disparage love, marriage and children — an effort pushed by jealous, bitter women.”
Sounds like most of the political elite in Western Europe.
Rush Limbaugh makes a similar observation. For me, I look at who benefits the most from current feminism: unattractive women who either have no prospects of getting a husband who would satisfy them, or who have no interest in men.
And not just jealous and bitter, but so jealous and bitter that they want company, lots of company and they will do ANYTHING to drag other women down to THEIR level.
My mother had both a career and a family, but family came first. She had a feminist co-worker who constantly tried to get her demoted or worse. But Mom was a Saint who seldom, if ever, responded in kind. Mom was the type of person who treated the cleaning lady with the same courtesy, if not more, than another professor.
Eventully, they both retired and the feminist tearfully confessed to Mom that my mother was the ONLY friend she ever made in 25 years on the job together.
FWIW, I consider myself a feminist. To my mind feminism is about equality of opportunity, NOT outcome. What’s being promulgated the last few decades is not feminism. It’s feminazism. And for women who bought into it hook, line and sinker only to have it bite them on their butts...Sigh, they have my sympathy. Hopefully the younger generations will learn from their elder sisters’ mistakes.

The word you’re searching for is “Lesbians”
You are so right, I would put that book in the hands of every young woman.
