No, but the experience of blackface and resulting emotions are.
No, I would prefer they would finally understand they are not the whole world, their world view is 'not the one,true and only' and certain things may have different implications in different parts of the world.
Quite frankly I find this attitude very imperialistic.

Financial independence, not being able to stay at home completely for more than about 1-1.5 year, enjoying working. Hating being solely responsible for house chores. Need more?
Sorry but what do you mean?
I enjoy DYI. Give me a flat pack and I'm happy.
And the crazy feminist tell me exactly what I feel myself- that I don't have to stay at home or be solely responsible for house chores. That there can be balance.
Why not?

Because they don't do it. Believe, girls are not born with the knowledge how to cook, clean etc. We learn. Do you want to tell me that an adult man is not capable of distinguish, vacuuming and following a recipe?
It doesn't have to be but more and more women decide that they don't like that division. Plus unless a women is not working at all it makes it u fair.
But men, in most cases, are absolutely atrocious when it comes to house chores.

It's very relevant.
We don't force people to donate Blood or organs even when it can save a life. But we do force women to be unwillingly carry a baby.
That being said I'm not a supporter of late abortions beside medical issues

Of course not but you gave it as an example of how you have time for your kids.
Neither. I'd rather we both worked and both took care of home and kids.
But tbh if the kids and cares were really taken care of I would rather work.

that's not the point of homeworks anyway.

We also have to rememberthat marrying a girl to a wealthy man was often the only way to secure her economically in the future. Today a woman can marry a poor man and still secure her living by her own work. Back then she could only rely on man.
In the past it was common, especially among noble and aristocratic families, to marry off their kids to "the right" family.
