All is Vanity See other All is Vanity Articles Title: The World as a Resentful Matriarchy Let’s do a thought experiment and imagine a world in which women had all the high-paying, high-status jobs and men had all the dirty, dangerous jobs feminists never talk about because they certainly don’t want to do them – coal miner, steel worker, etc. Hannah Rosin, who wrote an article, “The End of Men” and has given speeches about her beliefs (and seems to be quite gleeful about the whole thing), thinks women are taking over all the “better” jobs – lawyers, doctors, veterinarians, etc. Men, of course, would still dominate all those dangerous dirty jobs – firefighter, carpenter, etc. What would happen in such a world? Leftists believe it would be a wonderful world and it would work just fine. But then leftists, as Erik von Kuehnelt-Leddihn accurately noted, don’t merely misunderstand human nature – they don’t understand it at all. In reality this world would collapse. Such a world could be maintained temporarily by the power of the State, and to the degree the United States is heading toward this matriarchal society, it’s due to government interference, such as Affirmative Action. As Charles Murray pointed out in his magnum opus. Human Action, men have been responsible for creating/discovering almost everything in the world. Specifically he pointed out (and this has been noticed by many others before him) it was European men, and their descendants in America, who have created/discovered 97% of everything in the world. In other words, it’s been those disparaged and despised Dead White Males who’ve done all those things. My thought experiment is of course extreme, a reductio ad absurdum, actually. But it makes things simpler to understand. If women were in the position in my thought experiment, they would look around and find to their horror there would be no men to marry and have children with. So what would happen? They would decide to have children on their own, without being married. Since an unmarried woman with a child has never been economically viable in any culture in the world, these women would have to give their children to others to raise – low-paid domestic help, day-care centers, etc. These women would of course be outraged if these helpers cost a lot of money and would demand the government subsidize them and their children, i.e., the taxpayers, most of whom would make less money than they do. In other words, the less-well-to-do are supposed to support the better off. Ah, the leftist delusion of a village raising a child fulfilled! For a very short while. How would the children raised in this “village” turn out? Overall, not all that well. Some of course would grow up just fine, but to use the exception is the Fallacy of Composition – to assume what is true of one is true of everyone. The humorist P.J. O’Rourke has written that without men civilization would last until the next oil change, and the feminist Camille Paglia has famously noted that if civilization were left in the hands of women we’d still be living in grass huts. In other words, men created civilization, and have done this in every culture in the world. Women have generally done two things – have babies and determine the comfort level of the home. Of course some women have contributed discoveries and inventions, but the statistics are so lopsided – thousands to one – that this difference is constitutional and not because of “oppression,” which leftists claim – and will claim until the end of time – is the cause of every problem in the world. If indeed men were stuck in nothing but dirty and dangerous jobs, there would be little advancement in society. Society would in fact go backwards, until it collapsed and “patriarchy” was reestablished. Women, for the most part, want husband, home and children. If denied these things, they get bitter, hostile and resentful, and blame their problems on men, rather than on themselves. While men, when they have high-paying jobs (and wages stopped going up in the United States in 1973) don’t mind supporting women, if women had all the high-paying jobs and men all the dirty, dangerous ones, would they support men? A few would, but most would be outraged. So what society would be stuck with are bitter, resentful career women unable to find husbands, so they have children on their own (many of which will grow up with problems), give them to others to raise, while the unmarried men would drink and see hookers. What a life, and what a society. “Patriarchy” is inevitable. Being side-tracked from it is causing some horrible things, which I suspect are going to be worse before they get better.

Interesting stats on divorce rates. Source: www.jesus-is- savior.com/Family/Mar riage/divorce_rates.htm Country Divorce Rate per 10,000 Population National Budget as a Percent of GDP Patriarchy or Matriarchy SriLanka 0.015 6.7% Patriarchy Brazil 0.026 13.9% Patriarchy Italy 0.027 40.4% Patriarchy Mexico 0.033 7.2% Patriarchy Chile 0.038 11.5% Patriarchy ElSalvador 0.041 6.3% Patriarchy Japan 0.042 15.2% Patriarchy Ecuador 0.042 4.5% Patriarchy Mauritius 0.047 7.0% Patriarchy Thailand 0.058 6.9% Patriarchy Syria 0.065 11.6% Patriarchy Panama 0.068 16.4% Patriarchy China 0.079 16.8% Patriarchy Tunisia 0.082 16.0% Patriarchy Korea 0.088 12.9% Patriarchy Trinidad 0.097 15.4% Patriarchy Barbados 0.121 28.2% Patriarchy Finland 0.185 49.6% Matriarchy Canada 0.246 19.9% Matriarchy Australia 0.252 27.1% Matriarchy NewZealand 0.263 28.7% Matriarchy Denmark 0.281 58.3% Matriarchy UnitedKingdom 0.308 40.9% Matriarchy Russia 0.336 44.4% Matriarchy PuertoRico 0.447 41.0% Matriarchy US 0.495 41.0% Matriarchy
And in the case of "matriarchies" I'll bet the women are in many ways supported by the State, i.e., the taxpayers, including people who make a lot less money than they do.
Likely that is true as Matriarchies are dominated by the Welfare Statism that is present here in the US. The beotches talk "Eeeekwaltee" but the reality they can't for the most part make it on their own without State coercion of men for 'child support' and 'spousal support' and theivery thru divorce proceedings and welfare support from the State, beotches get money. What they are really after is special privileges and 'princess' status, and call it "Equality" LMFAO.
It appears that this is always true, which is one of the reasons these "matriarchies" always collapse.
