Surveys Show Women Have Become Unhappier Since Feminism Was Introduced To Our Society
Feminism is sold to women as a liberation from patriarchal ways. We're told that feminism is the way for us to move society forward and empower women to live happier, more independent lives. But surveys show that women are actually more unhappy than ever, and the decline of happiness started when feminism was introduced to our society.
Some of the most well-known feminist icons spent much of their adult life teaching women about the freedom that comes with feminism. "A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle," Gloria Steinem famously said. Germaine Greer claimed that withholding sexual freedom from women was stopping them from reaching fulfillment in their lives. But the more that women chose to live their life without any men and live a sexually free lifestyle, the unhappier they got, according to surveys. Could it be that feminism isn't making women as happy as we thought it would?
