[quote=Anonymous]Because not everyone is miserable and many people, including women, benefit from the patriarchy. Many women have no desire to hold leadership positions, climb the corporate ladder and take on a traditionally male role in life. This is difficult for many women in liberal circles to understand. I grew up in a conservative and relatively affluent area where most women stayed home. I’m not convinced my current life is any better and may actually be worse. I’m resentful I’m expected to have children and also a high earning career. Many of my childhood friends stay home with kids and have never had successful careers. They seem happier and not any worse off financially. I have friends in Northern Europe where there’s much greater equality between the sexes and these couples seem especially unhappy. [/quote]
