Bill Sticker on the mystery that is modern feminism:
"Some feminists have even been quoted as saying that women do not need men at all. First they deride the men they reject as ‘involuntary celibates’ and virtually ensure that they will have an equally barren life and run the risk of ending up as elderly cat ladies writing green ink screeds against their ‘oppressors’. They rail against the notion of feminine attractiveness as a primary tool of control, forgetting how much power it actually gives women. Then we see TikTok videos of young women demanding to know where ‘all the good men are’."

A much neglected part of the debate is that one of the main reasons for 'feminine attractiveness' is to compete against other women for social status. Higher social status may enable a woman to gain a higher status male, or perhaps get a better job. It's how many women compete in our society. Other societies have different ways of establishing status.
Spot on!
