I haven't seen the latest update of it so dunno. It's just the third trend at work, modern women are less feminine, evolution just uses what's available and convenient at the time to develop (mother-infant bond infrastructure for ultrasociality in the past) or now, suppress.

Replace 'women' with 'wombs' and you'll start to get something more sensible. Men don't give much of a shit about barren spinsters. (e.g. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s40806-014-0003-3 … (and wombs themselves aren't very useful if they can only make other wombs (cheques aren't very nutritious!)))

early modern Russian serfs are surely an exception? also, the text linked doesn't account for the *produced* part (even if the serfs really didn't hold any vestigial customary rights)

unfortunately we've reached the limits of my real historical knowledge :) it's an interesting idea for sure, my gut is (i) capitalism isn't really much different from premodern systems, just with lower transaction costs, and (ii) the pattern you see is proportionately general

I think there's continuity (it's the universal process being carried out still), but certainly a phase transition (low transaction costs might even be a discriminator for what changed), so I guess I agree with qualifications.
