[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven't read the article.  Obviously, women should be treated as equals, etc, but I think it is worth asking questions about whether many of feminism's achievements have actually improved things for women.  Arguably, women now have to do everything a man has to do, in addition to everything that women do, and it doesn't seem like this is a good deal.  Men are miserable, women report the lowest levels of happiness in decades, and yet we can't question whether this is all working for us.[/quote]

I am happy, single woman, and working, with a home.[/quote]

That's good.  I am happy, married, and working, with a home.  I also don't think that American feminism has been utterly perfect in advancing women's needs.[/quote]

There is only so much "feminism" can do. It is not going to negate the two income trap which has caused the price of everything to rise since it assumed many households have two people working, and feminism will not force men to do what they don't want to do in the home. [/quote]
