Ahem. Feminism changed the world. Since about 1968, American culture has move at an ever faster pace towards a two income family. What was once thought of by feminist as a choice women would have/should have, has become a mandatory "work like a man, until you die". Not the world of Mary Tyler Moore at all.

It's a good thing it's not a zero sum game.

"The only winner: women, whose median inflation adjusted income over the same period has increased by 188%. That said, it is still at 65% of what the median male makes."

Hard to call that "winning," more like losing less badly (but still pretty badly).

This is pretty old news. Corporations and governments love feminism.

Corporations since it promotes at the very least more available labor, which drives down wages for the laborers over time due to the huge surplus.

Governments love it because it drums up more taxpayers.

What do you think the end result of all of this is?
