Women and Agency
Great thread, demonstrating the point that no one, not traditionalists nor feminists, thinks women can (or will make women) take responsibility for their actions. Feminists advocate for creating laws that assign men all agency, all responsibility, while giving women perfect freedom to do whatever they want. Women should always have it both ways. If they mess up, blame is to be attached to the nearest man. This largely is what is encoded in law as I type in 2017. Certainly it is what is encoded in family law. As for criminal law, it is known that women get significantly, like 60%, lighter sentences for committing the same crimes men do. They are also, despite the stereotype perpetrated in the (((media))) likelier to be domestically violent. Some women can and will take responsibility for their actions. But they are the minority, and not a large minority, a pretty small one. Most women do not want to take responsibility for their actions, and will leap to embrace any court- or media- or socially-provided out. Every man who conflicts with a woman, if it ends up in court, will find the woman accusing him of verbal abuse if not physical or both. All men do is abuse women verbally, mentally and physically, if you listen to women/feminists. And at this point there is little difference because although many women do not like to call themselves feminists because of the extreme and ridiculous actions of many of those who do, yet still feminist assumptions are in the law, and have been for a very long time. So are they in the media and its portrayals of sex interactions. The default is feminist. To challenge it is akin to a salmon swimming upstream. Some will make it but the vast majority will fail.
