      The vast majority of countries that used to have this problem addressed it by abolishing the peerage entirely The idea that this is some difficult pie in the sky task and we need to make a gender neutral peerage as an intermediate step is fucking laughablehttps://twitter.com/SophieRunning/status/1327884125634703363 …

      Don’t dismiss this as feminism for aristocrats. @DaughtersRights⁩ is fighting to dismantle the first and fundamental law of patriarchy: that a male child is more valuable than a female. Excellent piece by ⁦@helenlewis⁩ https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2020/11/feminist-aristocrats-who-want-daughters-rights/617067/ …

      How many other countries have a peerage at all?

      That's the funny thing about this shit I'm not an expert on the peerage but England's peerage is known for being particularly sexist (purely agnatic primogeniture unless the monarch makes a special exception) But this doesn't actually matter very much

      Yeah, there's almost no examples of a Duchess inheriting her title in her own right in English history but several famous examples on the Continent (Eleanor of Aquitaine etc) But this didn't make Italy, Austria, France, Russia etc less sexist in general than England at all

      And all those suo jure duchesses vanished because one way or another those countries ended up abolishing the peerage and taking the duchy back for the people Which I guess we're supposed to be sad about? It reduced the total amount of Girl Power in the aristocracy?

          It's just fucking absurd that we're supposed to believe life actually gets better for women in general if you make it easier for a few dozen women who won a birth lottery to be gifted free wealth and power

          I mean shit the so-called Victorian era, when the biggest empire in the world was ruled by a Queen, is not generally considered a high water mark for feminism

          "Do you think Maria Theresa had girl power?" "Yes, of course." "Do you think she effectively utilised girl power by funnelling money into illegal mercenary death squads in Silesia?"
