You are right of course, I was drastically simplifying my points for the sake of the discussion.
It is quite normal to stage a partial rebellion against one's upbringing, it's part of the normal process of maturing into an adult. However, that tends to fizzle out when one's own children arrive.
To be sure, there will always be those who do not follow the parental path. My
contention is that they will remain a minority. Especially in the
future when their lack of offspring will be extremely
apparent. Feminists will be looked at with bemusement like the shakers
today.
- tripzilch 10y agoWhat future do you imagine where lack of offspring will be extremely apparent? If the world population growth doesn't stop one way, it will stop the hard way. You can only fit so many humans on this planet.
- mafribe 10y agoLack of offspring is already extremely apparent among highly educated women. My university is full of them. Most have no children or at best one. Feminism is sometimes seen as an evolved reaction to overpopulation.
