Feminism: it was brought in by elite women in the upper classes, to give them more power, to allow them to access education and the modern economy. Sounds good. ☑ I like women doing well. But most women who do well in life, are from the upper classes. So opening the world of work and money for women, it mostly benefitted the upper class women. This strengthened the economics of the upper classes in advanced countries. How? Most women in university are from the upper classes, getting trained to take their place at the top of the economic pyramid, making a lot of money. The upper class women get married at university, get well paid careers, then bring in lots of household money, so it's not just the upper class husband bringing in lots of household money. That's why you have a pattern of marriage has continued to be strong in the upper classes...money. Jordan Peterson has mentioned this often. Feminism was a roaring financial success for women in the upper classes. Bright women from well off families got careers, two professional family incomes. So upper class women really cleaned up, with feminism. ✅
But...but...an unforeseen problem that arose was feminism also decimated the lower class women, while benefitting rich women. How? Lower class women get less education, less opportunity, have less family backing them up in life. They must work hard to get ahead. The bottom 80% of women, who now often outcompete men their own age, focus mostly on career over family now, wealth is heavily concentrated in the top 20%, so men in the bottom 80% have little to offer women, in marriage. The women have little interest in getting married to the men around them, men they often out-compete. There is nothing in it, for lower class women, to get married. For what? To support their guy? Women don't want that.
It's a joke. The joke is on women, unfortunately. Who do women now work for? Lower class women working mostly generates money for the elite class, at the expense of their own lives. Feminism got lower class women to generate wealth for the elite, while telling them they were "empowered" and "liberated". In the 1960s the American marriage rate was 80% for all classes. Now, only well off people marry.
The marriage rate is now extremely low, at the lower ends of society, because we brought in sexual liberation....liberal values...trained lower class women to out-earn the men around them, then robbed the lower class women of the benefits of marriage, while freeing men to be cads, who sleep around. Not a useful social pattern. Short answer: rich girls won, but the bottom 80% of women, lost badly. Feminism helps women who are from well off families, hurts the rest.
It is poor and middle class women that are hurt by the new social patterns. Only rich women benefit. Remember Chesterton's fence. Old patterns, have a purpose. Even conservatives get this wrong. Ben Shapiro thinks it's about morals, too much. Money.
