It’s not circular at all. Traditional patriarchal cultures do objectify women to some degree for the reasons I’ve listed above. I don’t mind female vanity all that much but what bothers me is the hypocrisy. Women shamelessly objectify themselves like never before and then place all the blame on men and society. ?

**Also, the suggesting that childbirth is the primary function of women as viewed by society is highly suspect given A) the short time span they can reproduce and B) the massive amount of other things they do.**

I’m not suggesting that women aren’t capable of anything but reproduction. All I’m saying is those other functions are secondary. I guess nature is sexist. What a shame.

**Also, why are men not viewed the same way if that’s the function, as babies don’t come from simply a woman?**

Because men have occupied their time with other activities like constructing monuments, articulating philosophy, nation building etc.?

**Why is it feminism’s fault that traditional marriage has eroded?**

Undermining gender roles, getting women to put career before kids, and punitive divorce laws in women’s favor tend to do that to marriage. Good wives are not born, they are made. ?

**We can’t slow down the national debt one iota, but a small percentage of women have decimated marriage? Highly suspect.**

A small percentage of women with lots of elite backing.
