Some choice history...
- The first American state to prohibit beating your wife was Tennessee in 1850. https://biblicalgenderroles.com/2016/09/20/does-the-bible-allow-a-husband-to-spank-his-wife/
- Women gained the right to vote in America in 1919.
- Domestic violence illegal in all states by 1920.
- It wasn't until the 1970s (second-wave feminism) that DV was strongly enforced. Spanking your wife was still commonplace until then.
- Women gained the right to vote in Switzerland in 1970.
- In 1974, women could open bank accounts without written permission from their husbands. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/e/ecoa.asp
- All states criminalize marital rape by 1990. Before this, it was legal to use force to collect the sex you are owed.
All this feminist stuff is newer than most people realize. People act like it's been this way for centuries or something. It was only 33 years ago that if your wife said she has a headache, you could just pin her down and fuck her by force, and it was legal.
Of course feminism is retarded, wrong in every way, and the first suspect in any question of why the west is going to shit right now. It's the most recent radical change to western society, culture, and law.
