Is Feminism Dangerous?

Europe in the Spirit of False Values

The observation that personality disorders and mental illnesses such as depression are increasing in the West, while women are having fewer children, focusing on careers, and partner selection is made more difficult by social media, raises the question of whether the Western lifestyle emphasizes "false values" such as individualism, materialism, or career over family, commitment, and community.

Relationship with the Western lifestyle:

Loss of the maternal role: The traditional role of the mother as the primary caregiver has changed. More women work full-time, reducing time for childcare. Modern studies also emphasize that an "invalidating environment" during childhood, such as that caused by overworked or stressed parents, can exacerbate emotional instability.

In the West, the traditional gender role of women as mothers and homemakers has changed. Women are now better educated, more likely to work in leadership positions, and choose not to have children for economic or personal reasons. In Europe and the US, the fertility rate is declining (e.g., 1.5 children per woman in the EU, 1.6 in the US), which can lead to the long-term shrinking of populations and cultures.

Career over family: The Western lifestyle often rewards professional success more than starting a family. Women are under pressure to prioritize careers and financial independence, which can influence the decision not to have children.

Dissolution of gender roles: Gender equality has weakened traditional roles such as the "nurturing mother" or the "providing father."

Cultural consequences: The decline in the fertility rate threatens the sustainability of Western cultures. In countries like Japan and Germany, an aging population is leading to economic and social challenges, which could be seen as a sign that the focus on individual goals is misguided in the long term.

Fertility rates in Europe include births to indigenous and non-indigenous populations, including migrants and their descendants. Because non-indigenous groups, especially migrants from regions with higher fertility rates, often have more children, the fertility rate of indigenous populations is lower. In South Korea, where migration is minimal, the extremely low fertility rate of about 0.6 children per woman demonstrates how drastically the fertility rate can fall without migration.

Estimates for indigenous populations indicate that women without a migration background in Germany have a lower fertility rate than average, often between 1.2 and 1.4 children per woman.

The fertility rates of indigenous populations in South Korea (approximately 0.6–0.7 children per woman) and Europe (approximately 1.2–1.3) are well below the replacement rate of 2.1 needed to maintain a stable population without migration. Without changes to these trends or significant migration, the indigenous population in these regions will decline dramatically by 2100. Estimates for the indigenous population in 2100, based on current fertility rates, are:

At a rate of 1.2–1.3, the indigenous population halves every 50–60 years. After 100 years, approximately 1/8 to 1/4 of the initial population remains. Without migration, Germany's total population will decline to 40–50 million by 2100. The indigenous population (based on a baseline of 68 million) is estimated at 15–25 million indigenous Germans in 2100.

This decline threatens economic stability, cultural identity, and social cohesion. Loneliness and mental health problems exacerbate the problem by hindering family formation. Urgent measures such as family support, community building, and a change in values are needed to preserve Western civilization. South Korea's extreme crisis (0.6 children per woman) is a warning signal for Europe.

The extremely low birth rates are leading to a dramatic decline in the indigenous population, which threatens Western culture. "Irreversible" here means that even drastic measures (e.g., family support) can no longer halt the decline before the population becomes too small to support itself economically, socially, and culturally.

Are humans on the brink of extinction due to feminism's contempt for men?

Yes it is very dangerous. Thanks for sharing this linked article. This is remarkably well researched and well written.

Probably the thing that feminism does that kills the most men, is the ignoring of mostly male diseases.

Shorts answer: Yes it is.
