Obliteration Not Liberation

Mary Malone writes:
These days we have an epidemic of mental illness and self harm amongst young women. Supposedly, the feminist battles of the past have been largely won. Women take their place in leadership positions in business and politics, we earn our own living, we can dump a man if he falls short of our requirements. We can take our rightful place in the hierarchy.
Yet at what price? Is the victory more apparent than real.
Forty years ago a woman could have children. It wasn't a matter of choice, it was a matter of right. If a woman wanted to have children, which most women do, once she left school she set about looking for a mate.
By her early twenties a woman was married. With luck she would have married a man willing to work hard and provide for her and her children.
Modern girls leave school at twenty one, an age at which their grandmothers were frequently married and mistresses of their own households. They leave school with huge debts, and frequently cannot afford somewhere to live, so they stay with Mum and Dad. There are few available males to mate with, because they too are hugely in debt. If they have avoided the debt trap, frequently they are working in low skill, low paid jobs.
Even if they are earning good money they are unlikely to want to mate, so ingrained is the culture of consumption. Even if they marry, the marriage will likely end in divorce, leaving the man to pick up the tab for children to whom he is more of a sperm donor than a father, leaving the woman to look after children on her own, whilst holding down a job.
Modern young people drink and smoke and go to this country and that, but it is a dance of despair.
A woman is no longer a woman but an object, a sex machine by night and a human resource by day.
The days when she had value as a mother and a lover are over. No longer do men see her as semi divine.
No longer does the modern woman even respect herself. She starves herself, trying to eliminate all vestiges of womanhood from her appearance. She would rather look androgynous, something like a boy. The sex she indulges in is more akin to the domination games of pederasty than the embracing love of a fruitful woman.
So how did it come to this?
Feminists believed that Patriarchy could be overcome by women becoming Patriarchal. And the merchants of Power were only too happy to oblige.
The last century has produced a world of rape and fear for women, a world of war and violence, unheard of in distant times. The war on Woman intensifies daily. Women are not being liberated, they are being obliterated.
