Young women today blaming feminism for the evils of capitalism… i want you to have time to pick berries as well but that’s not on women in the 70s for wanting to have a life independent of their husbands
Not only this, I’ve seen people blame the 2nd wave feminist movement for stagnating wages. They claim that, because women entered and saturated the workforce, employers can get away with paying everyone less. Not everyone comes out and says the quiet part out loud, but a lot of these arguments have the obvious implication of “things were better when the workforce was mostly men and women were just homemakers.”
Like not only is this historically inaccurate (poor women and many women of color have always had to work outside the home, for one), it’s so victim-blamey. Instead of getting angry at the corporations who keep making more and more record profits every year while continuing to underpay their employees, let’s get angry at women fighting for and achieving financial independence.

You think I’m weak, don’t you? All of those years ago when first fell in love… your father would say I was too sweet for my own good. Maybe he was right. You tell me it’s a cruel world… and we’re all just running around in circles. I know that. I’ve been on this Earth just as many days as you. When I choose to see the good side of things, I’m not being naive. It is strategic and necessary. It’s how I’ve learned to survive through everything. I know you see yourself as fighter. Well, I see myself as one too. This is how I fight.
Archive Raider I seek out things that (for me) amuse, intrigue, or spark--probably not occurring always in equal measure. (Tumblr keeps unfollowing me from mutuals T_T if I’ve unfollowed you recently, let me know 🌟)
