Capitalism is the problem.
In Why Women Have Better Sex Under Socialism: And Other Arguments for Economic Independence, Dr. Kristen R. Ghodsee argues that unregulated capitalism disproportionately harms women and that the path forward might look a lot like democratic socialism. “If done properly,” Ghodsee writes, “socialism leads to economic independence, better labor conditions, better work/family balance, and yes, even better sex.”
By peeling back the Iron Curtain and examining what happened to women in countries that transitioned from state socialism to capitalism, Ghodsee shows how some women in the Eastern bloc enjoyed greater rights and privileges than those in Western liberal democracies. These countries invested in women’s education, worked to fully incorporate women into the labor force, provided ample maternity leave, and guaranteed free childcare. Why Women Have Better Sex Under Socialism highlights the stories of feminists and socialists who worked to make women’s lives better under socialism, while pointing to ways we can adapt their lessons for the future. I spoke with Ghodsee about the 2018 midterms, lean-in feminism, and, of course, sex under socialism.
There seems to be a wealth of research about the sex lives of people under socialism. Why is that? And what were you surprised to learn about sex under socialism?
Are these mufuckas kidding? Do they not read history books? Like about North Korea or former Soviet Union? Retard alert!
