Have you asked the women and girls in those societies if they think it’s racist and disgusting?
- dotancohen 6mo agoHave you?
- nkrisc 6mo agoNo, which is why I am not making a moral judgement on it.
- dotancohen 6mo agoWell I am making a moral judgement. Declaring that other societies need fixing is racist and disgusting. Go ask the women and girls in your society if your own society needs fixing.
- deadeye 6mo agoCounter point...have you seen the rates a females on anti-anxiety / anti-depression medication in our culture? I'm not a moral relativist, but I'm not sure we've perfected things here either.
- fl4regun 6mo agoConsider the level of access girls and women in poorer countries have to psychological assessment and medication compared to ours.

- habinero 6mo agoThis narrative gets thrown around a lot by certain groups in misleading ways, and it's super annoying. Women tend to advocate for themselves better in healthcare, especially mental healthcare. Women aren't, like, more depressed than men, they're just getting it treated.
