@ 20 yrs. ago, I worked on the 4th floor of a hi-rise, ‘typical’ downtown metro area. A female customer asked me to look out the window & “describe what you see.”
I described a large number of black women who were pushing baby-carriages while gesticulating, yelling, etc., at several children with them...herding them along, I suppose...
Some weeks later, returning, she asked me to do the same thing. This time, I noticed many were accompanied by men (also black), and that the men were helping with the gaggle of kids; pushing the carriages, etc...
Making note of the difference, I asked. She replied; “What time of the month is it?”
...Welfare check disbursement time...
The great society, liberal gubmint PAYS women, and does NOT require men to be responsible in return.
Men show up *at certain times* to get some $$$.
“But why do the women allow the men to use them in such a manner?” I asked.
She said; “LOOK at the women!”
That’s when I understood.
It’s a shameful, societally debilitating dynamic - yet encouraged. “We get what we pay for.”
Ugh!
(sorry)
“the great society” encouraged and then required men to NOT be part of a child’s life. Even tody a father is nothing more than a support check.
In the 60’s the social worker would be in the front door and the father would be running out the back door like an escaping lover to a woman whose husband came home early.
Look at Disney, it is all princesses all the time. Prince charming is not allowed to slay the dragon any more because peta gets upset.
Feminism is and remains about giving ugly women access to men. Since men are not buying ugly women, women have to justify their poor choices. Ugly goes straight to the bone.
"Poverty" programs have destroyed the black family and condemned generations of black children to being raised by foolish, unwed teenage mothers with the federal government as a stand in for the missing fathers.
