Any evidence of a "decline" since women's suffrage?

Haven't we still not seen the economic return on women entering the workforce? Most families need to have two earners now.

I think it will be very hard to allocate "blame" for the successes and failures of our societies because they are incredibly complex systems, the research is for the most part ideological and the metric of success will vary depending on your ideology. I think that sentiment is mostly coming from right wingers as men generally vote to the right of women.

Every form of the arts has been destroyed by the entre of women, their few contributions are horrible, ugly, pretentious and without merit--its hilarious that women are associated with beauty and taste and have not produced a spectacularly breathtakingly beautiful piece of art in the 100+ years theyve been involved in the arts, instead they have worked to destroy aesthetic standards so that "everyone can win" and be an artist, because having to have talent isnt fair. The entry of women into ANY prestigious field has meant the lowering of standards in that field and a lowering of the qualtity of the field. Dr.s are reduced in esteem to civil servants, lawyers are become commonplace hacks and public workers, college professors are the butts of jokes rather than held in high esteem

Caveat: all of this could be a relic of the left itself rather that the part of the left invading the world via woman

Hypergamy in action: New academic study links rising income inequality to ‘assortative mating’

This problem is poised to get worse because the current younger male generation has a significant disadvantage when it comes to education compared to women (except for the relatively small percentage of the male population in stem of course).

Furthermore, these dual-income wealthy couples aren't having enough children to make up for the assortive mating drain on household incomes overall, which means increasingly only the less intelligent are having kids today, and they can't afford it.

The net result of women in the workplace has been higher prices for things like housing as dual-income couples bid up prices, which puts economic pressure on any traditional household that has excess capacity to reproduce. And so the birth rate today is about as low as it's ever been, which will be a drag on future economic growth and prosperity. And male median incomes have not increased since the 1970's. It's a vicious, self-reinforcing cycle of downward trajectory.

The only solution I see is a giant financial crisis that collapses the prices of everything (and wipes out the phantom wealth of the elite) so that the younger generation can afford to reproduce once things bottom and start recovering.

I was reading a reputable magazine on a plane the other day. At least a third was dedicated to women's issues either explicitly or implicitly. Some independent woman opens restaurant... Which is doomed to fail. Next page I read about a male hedge fund manager who out maneuvered the recession and saved his investors thousands.... He got half as much space....

Real accomplishments were relegated to less space. Apparently that is acceptable, but then again, life is haaarrrrddd

Your question is makes no sense. What are you talking about? A decline to what? Whom? About what?
