You said this diseased culture was the main factor in the victimization of women. If it was the main factor, then before it existed there must have been very little or no victimization. This is not some theory or bluff, it is the natural meaning of the words you used. You are just ranting, it makes no sense.
Meanwhile, PC dominates your thinking. Was the reaction of so called conservatives to the NFL guys kneeling for the National Anthem political correctness? Yes or no? Sure seemed like they were offended by another person's expression of belief.
Lol.
This is simply an evolution of society. Women, by nature and by need, were inferior to men 200 years ago. At that time, all cultures were based on physical work. In addition, women bore children and, even the strongest of them, was marginalized by getting pregnant. And, they could not control pregnancy other than abstinence.
Suddenly, the pill was invented. A massive inflection point in history. Women could control pregnancy to the point where it became a choice. At the same time, we evolved from farming to industrial to predominantly a white collar society. Suddenly, in the last 50 years, physical strength was no longer a key success factor in the majority of jobs.
The problem is, historically, men and women are different and this is hard coded. Physically and mentally, we are different. So society is adjusting to the new roles of both men and women. Only recently, as being a house husband been considered OK by society. A house husband allows the mother to work and not depend on marginal and problematic nannying of kids.
So here we are. Some societies, some families, have advanced faster than others. it doesn't mean they are good or bad. But we can all agree that violence is not to be tolerated. We can all agree that harassment is not cool. We can all agree that men and women should be valued similarly in business. I do not agree that asking a girl on a date is harassment. Trying to get a kiss, but yielding to a "no" is not harassment. Holding the door, admiring, letting a woman go first, paying for a date....all of these are marginal calls and, personally, have no idea what women want. So I quit letting gals go first and holding doors.
If you understand how we got here, you'll understand why there is conflict. And, personally, while I may agree with Gellette, I resent them doing this. just my opinion. I don't want companies telling me what to think or do. In addition, I will not think of women as defenseless and in need of protection. Consistent with women's groups messaging, they are capable. If so, then they are capable of NOT being victims. Own your shit and take care of yourself.
