I'm Australian, but I have heard from one random internet stranger on this site that feminism is a huge problem in the UK. Would you agree or disagree with that assessment, if you are from the UK ?

From the article :

"497 million hours for males, and 344 million hours for females in the
three months to May 2020, a decline of 125 million and 85 million
respectively when compared with the start of the year. In the most
recent month, the overall number of hours worked by males was 598.1
million, and 428.6 million for females."

Huge problem? I guess like many western countries that are taken with luxury beliefs and utopian ideas that don't stand up to realities, feminism is big.

It's definitely not egalitarian, and very much more about special treatment - boys' falling performance in school is ignored, men's charities and funding for men's organisations is far less, we still have the sound of crickets for male suicide and homelessness as in the US, Canada, NZ and Aus. The focus is always at the top eg equality in "CEOs" never roadworks or refuse for example (dirty, manual, dangerous, unsociable hours)

Wrt the link; women work fewer hours in lower paid jobs... this may go some way to explaining that luxury complaint about pay and pensions

So go get a job at a nonprofit, work in education, donate money to mens charities, start a campaign for suicide prevention. These things exist for women because women built them.

[–]boringcarpets[S] 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I already volunteered for certain charities (prostate cancer, suicide prevention, started by men), then what?

what about the additional government assistance that only exists in one direction? Or the publicising and public backing via media and other organisations? No need to start a new anything when charities in exist already, but when men are told time and again to be quiet, or the issues are laughed off by politicians (eg jess philips), what then?

You've oversimplified what you think a solution is.

the question was is feminism a huge problem, and it is because it masquerades as equality and occupies the place of egalitarianism.

Also "Start your own X"? Really? always touted by the types who will deride and shame X then take over X and push the original people out.

These things exist for women because women built them

Some women built them. The vast majority of women just say "we built them" while they simply surf on public money (aka men's money). They did nothing themselves but take pride in having vaginas and using others' (including men) achievements.

Also should I understand that you agree that women did not have the right to vote while men had it because men fought for it earlier than women ?

Should I understand that women are parasite since they did not build the houses they live in, discovered most of the medicines or technologies they use ?

I'd call that bias a pretty big problem. You are basically repeating what the other British person said.

Once made equal to man woman becomes his superior. Socrates

[–]Real_Ad_8043 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link

Doesn't this make sense though? It's more common for women to raise children and for men to earn the income for the house? Plus, it looks like the hours worked by women is increasing faster than the rate for men. I'm no statistics guy, but If the trend continues, men and women should be equal in hours worked within the next few decades?

This is kind of the result of ye old "housewife" trend. Hope to see it dead within the next century. Also keep in mind, this chart isn't counting parenting as "hours of work", which it certainly is.

[–]Cortinagt1966 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

Children can't be counted as work hours, that's like counting your hobbies as work hours. People choose to have children like they choose to have hobbies. Staying at home watching a kid is much easier than actually having a job.

[–]Real_Ad_8043 -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Comparing raising children to a hobby is concerning. Bad optics aside, taking care of children is work. It's actually quite a bit of work. Hence the idea of a babysitter. It's enough work to get paid for, and if counted, would make the results look very different. Unfortunately I don't know what they would look like.

[–]Cortinagt1966 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

If your hobby was building model houses, all you pay for is the materials, the time you take to build it is classed as part of the fun, if you played somebody else to do it then it will cost you alot more. If you raise children yourself all you have to pay for is food, electricity, heating, toys etc. If you pay sonebody else to raise your kids then you are paying for a service. If you think you need payment to raise your own children then??????

[–]Real_Ad_8043 -2 points-1 points0 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Parsing through this was hard. I think what you are trying to do is say that 1, a hobby costs time and money, 2, raising children costs time and money, 3 people don't hire other people to do hobbies for them, 4, people don't hire people to raise their kids for them, 5 it's cheaper to raise kids yourself, and 6, you shouldn't be paid to raise children at home. I feel like I am misunderstanding your argument, but this is my genuine best interpretation.

I think you are comparing raising children to a hobby again. This was concerning the first time, but now that you've made a point about it, I'll address it. Raising children is in no way comparable to a hobby. You can stop building model houses if you want. They aren't your responsibility, and nothing bad happens if you just leave the unfinished model houses sitting for months on end. You can not stop raising children. That is not optinal, and if you commit to having children, you must see that responsibility to the end. Do not keep making this comparison, as it's simply not relevant. If you think it's relevant, you don't understand the raising of children. You are correct, it is cheaper to raise children as a stay at home father/mother, that seems to be more popular than hiring a nanny, as it builds a connection between the father/mother, and then children. While I don't agree that you should be paid to raise children as a stay at home father/mother, I acknowledge the opportunity cost of giving up so much of your life to devote to your kids. There are other things you could be doing with your time if you didn't have kids, such as working at a job that earns money. Because being a stay at home mother is so popular, women get less hours of work than men, as they are at home taking care of kids. This explains the work hour difference.

This was a little less concise than I would have liked, but I want to be clear with what I'm saying.

Having children is a lifestyle choice though
