Women, even feminists, subconsciously look up at men like a child looks up at their parents.

If dad (aka adult man) is not stepping up to subsidize his little girls (an adult woman) short comings, then he’s at fault.

They outline the problem is feminism but instead of looking inside they still blame men.

When will they get it through their skulls, men aren't intimidated by independent women, is this some sort of coping they just tell themselves because they think men should like independent women. There is a difference between a woman who has to shout she is independent vs genuinely being independent.

Also when they say no one is to blame yet they blame men alone. Their exact points are men are either too controlling or too submissive yet when it comes to acknowledge womens faults they justify it with fearing for their lives and being objectified. Or not bringing their feminist agency into their dating life. I can't be the only that find it super weird that she still pinpoints it all on men, any fault women have well its just because they are so scared of men.

Or how when talking about how men used to treat women...they don't acknowledge how women used to treat men. They were kind, considerate and ladylike in return not the loud, mouthy women today. They are only frustrated that women aren't getting romanced like they used to.

Ironically she proves why there is such a gender divide. One gender is just so obsessed with themselves that even in a article/newspaper(?) About trying to seem fair they only focus on how women are sadder and how men are at fault. Men are fed up and starting to walk away.

And of course they use their favourite word, dehumanising. It starting to lose its edge now they use it so much

The feminist movement has provided women with more romantic, financial and sexual agency.

An interesting though, I think, not wholly accurate statement. Most people would surely agree that feminism has helped women in a financial sense but the usage of the other two adjectives is questionable.

The birth control pill, not feminism, is primarily responsible for their sexual freedom. According to Wikipedia, two men (Gregory Pincus and John Rock) developed the first such pill.

Can feminists claim to have made women more romantic? Perhaps women think so but I suspect a great many men would heartily disagree. The much shorter duration of marriages and common law relationships seriously calls into question the depth of those romantic feelings.
