guess we're doing this -- guess what, if you say "my sons must endlessly toil, but my daughters don't need to" you're longhoused.

it doesn't matter a whit if they "inherit" the fields, if it is all for what a woman wants, all they inherit is their shackles.

@sickburnbro "women are encouraged to be useless burdens"
I don't think that's gonna work out

@deprecated_ii yeah. I'm actually very serious here that people that are otherwise ok and say stuff like that have swallowed a huge piece of the "conservative liberalism" bullshit that they need to unpack.
Expecting a daughter not to work hard, but a son to is absolutely disordered.

@BroDrillard It's about as woman lead as truly feasible. But the key is that this mindset quickly converges to "you have to do what puts women first"

@sickburnbro Peasant women worked hard. My grandma was working the gardens until the year she died. This wasn't even necessary. We could all afford the groceries ourselves. She did it anyway.
My mom told me she had to spend most of the school breaks as a child helping in the harvest. They were not even farmers and didn't own land, just the house with a garden. They were helping the local farmers out for money. Both of my Grandmothers also had factory jobs.
The idle housewife is a middle class+ luxury. Some work, maybe only part time, was needed for everyone below that.

@Ariovistus I mean I'm fine with thinking your sons will be gentlemen scholars and not work hard, but it's the disconnect between what you want for daughters and sons that is disordered.
