Look at what happened to divorce rates in Mexico when some areas extended the school day by 3.5 hours!
Why did divorce rates go up as a result of the change?
"The availability of childcare...translate[d] into increased bargaining power and economic independence for women."

The story about the trans M&S employee and the bra fitting is a pack of lies and distortions.

They're inventing inspectors and inspectors of inspectors because the current political economy isn't workable without bullshit jobs.
It seems like an increasingly large part of the workforce are people whose job is to get someone else to do something, and this is the only way they can make it look like they're working.

It's telling that, in response to this, men predominantly would rather enslave women than do their half of the work. The idea of a society wherein men and women complement each other continues to be unsustainable and the men are going to have to cave.

I have come to accept a simpler and more general argument against billionaires: by their very nature they impose centralized planning over economy they infest, becoming de-facto communist planners, and thus impose upon their habitat all the pathologies that rise from impossibility of planned econ
It may be finally sinking in that a world of radical wealth inequality is unstable, actually.
There should be reward for good work, yes. There should not be outsize reward for being born rich.

Thus the pathologization that occurs in response to transition in order to reify the rigidity of AGAB: if a trans woman merely transitions out of a fetish, delusion, or porn addiction, then not only does this trivialize transition as an unserious vanity project within the assigned gender rather than
That fear of freedom is a fear of chaos. If male and female are mutable, the transphobe seems to say, then what other apparently basic coordinates are? That chaos is a threat to an order that provides their ontological security—hence any threat is met with aversion and control.
This. Lots of people, including lots of feminists, have a deep psychological attachment to gender. Genders are natural and immutable "sex classes" that provide order to the social world, and transness is a freedom that threatens that order. Transphobia is a manifestation of the fear of freedom.

There's a general conservative psychological need to believe there is a certain Way Things Are Supposed To Be. But this is also deeper than just a normative sentiment. They desperately desire to feel moored, rooted. It's not enough for them to see A=B as a useful axiom, they need to see it as a fact

Aus diesem Urteil kann man auch etwas über die Funktion von Kindern in der patriarchalen Familie lernen, auch in der bei uns geläufigen bürgerlichen Kleinfamilien-Version.
Das Landgericht Köln hat heute eine sehr realitätsferne Entscheidung getroffen. Eine Betroffene massivster sexualisierter Gewalt erhält keine Entschädigung, weil der Priester der sie vergewaltigte ihr Pflegevater war und sie "privat" vergewaltigte.
Mein Kommentar: www.nd-aktuell.de/artikel/1192...
Mein Kommentar: www.nd-aktuell.de/artikel/1192...
Sexualisierte Gewalt: Priester und Privatperson?
Katholische Priester sind eigentlich heilige Männer, nur nicht wenn sie ihre Pflegetochter missbrauchen. Das geschieht privat, damit die Kirche keine Verantwortung übernehmen muss.
