The ideas of feminism cause little sympathy in the minds of compatriots. And it would be fine only for men who are actually offered to share their rights — no, women are also not very in a hurry to defend their independence, opening the door on their own or refusing to give a coat.
It seems to me that this is not accidental. When women in the West fought with all their might for the right to go to work, leaving a smart kitchen and a three-door refrigerator unwashed, many Soviet women wore sleepers in two shifts and stood at blast furnaces.
And of course, the idea of fighting for equal rights with men with such a life experience seems to us at least not too smart. Meanwhile, modern feminism is wider than a few common clichés. His most interesting ideas are not related to giving women equal rights with men, but to recognizing the right of all people to be as they are.
Of course, when it comes to the right to life or paid vacation, everything is simple. But what kind of equality can we talk about when the huge physiological and psychological differences between men and women are obvious to any person?
The world of a woman is thinner, it is all based on shades and midtones, on the complex interaction of many objects.
A man, simply by virtue of his physiology, lives in a world of binary oppositions: white — black, yes — no … The world of a woman is thinner, it is all based on shades and halftones, on the complex interaction of many objects. Mathematically speaking, female logic is a multi-valued logic, where there are more than two truth values.
Within the framework of this logic, it is impossible to say that women are better than men or equal to men. They are simply different, with a different way of perceiving reality and other mechanisms of interaction.
Of course, we should not be talking about men and women, but about male and female, because every man has a feminine, and every woman has a masculine.
A man, if desired, can learn to see the world more diverse, and a woman can develop the ability to cut off unnecessary meanings and build her life within the framework of rigid oppositions.
But only if she wants to. This is what feminism says — about the right of women to remain women, to decide for themselves, within the framework of which model of the world they should live. All this has nothing to do with the right to work.
