      I agree with you there partially. I think #resistance is not futile in this case however. Declining female satisfication with life and increasing anxiety and depression are symptoms. Change will come. A re-embrace of the feminine will appear. 🤞

      I don't think that works. It's far more likely that we see declining self-reports of satisfaction because we have far higher expectations of satisfaction and higher rates of anxiety & depression because we are more alert to anxiety and depression.

      I'm not sure what a 're-embrace of the feminine' means. I don't think we can get away from gender differences and the different jobs we choose in different numbers demonstrates this. Some are female-dominated, some male. Is that feminine and masculine?

      I find the fatal flaw in feminism to be their idealization of masculine actualization. They should have attempted to elevate the idealization of feminine actualization instead.

      Precisely. Unfortunately corporate hiring practices, influenced by the un-care-about-able feminist theorist's scholarship, has lead to the adoption of equality of outcomes being the only ideal.

      Not by the scholarship. Do you really think they've read that? Almost no-one reads that. That comes from the ideology. I am writing right now about how it leaked out of universities and into the mainstream leftist social conscience & expectations for a progressive society.

      I'm not academic enough to be able to distinguish between scholarship and ideologies, both of which seem to have originated on campus. Maybe I just don't get the difference.

      Yes, you are seeing campus lunacy which is produced by a distillation of intersectional feminist & critical race theory (among others) and pushed in a simplified activist form on campuses trading on the good name of the civil rights movement, 2nd wave liberal feminism & Gay Pride

      Feminist scholars have power but this is not because people are reading their papers. There is much evidence that almost no-one is. This is fuelled by political social justice activism and really boils down to certain keywords.

          OK, so no one reads their papers, but plenty read their...blog posts? Listen to their speeches? How does an ideology become adopted? And if it is adopted, is the means by which it does relevant?

          Missed this. Yes. people are much more likely to read blog posts of activists than papers of academics. There is a big difference between these. Popularised feminism vs academic obscurity.

          If blog posts are more influential on society than academic papers, it begs the question...
