Sometimes I worry that feminism will destroy the nuclear family. But then I remember Darwin..
When the feminist removed all the governors evolution create to ensure careful mate selection (via the pill, morning after pill, abortion, less shaming about notch count...
value of virginity, no fault divorce, gynocentric custody laws, etc.) the net result is that women ended up just providing cheap sex to men. That's what we gained as a society.
So... us men don't have to work as hard. We don't have to be as rich, organized, connected...
we don't have to talk to her father, we don't really have to commit if we don't want to. All we're on the hook for is the child support, worst case
So on the face of it, all these things effectively KILLED the family. If "the nuclear family" was a stock it'd be in the shitter..
But then I remember Darwin. The ones who survive aren't the strongest, or the smartest, it's the ones who adapt.
And who's having babies right now?
The Mormons are. The Muslims are. Christians and Jews with strong polarity in their relationship are. And secular couples...
who value polarity between masculine and feminine are.
Sally the androgynous cat lady with the pink hair isn't having 4 kids.
It'll take time, but the family will survive.
