Feminism told us we women would be “equal” if we were like men.
Equal in the workplace. Equal in ambition. Equal in providing.
So now women are expected to pour out just as much masculine energy as men (gotta be equal, right?) And still come home to cook, clean, mother and be the perfect little wifey with femininity and grace.
But here’s the twist no one wants to admit:
Masculine energy doesn’t submit to masculine energy. But most men want their women to bring home the bacon (masculine provider energy required) yet still be soft and submissive. This Is rarely possible and actually leads women to resent their man for expecting that. It doesn’t feel right.
So what happens in a marriage when no one yields? Head-butting!

We’re told men and women are interchangeable but clearly God didn’t design us that way. Sure, some men adapt better than others. They lean more feminine. They can take a back seat and yield equally to their woman. They do their equal part in maintaining the home, or at least try. They don’t demand their working wives larp as stay at home wives at home. As they shouldn’t!
Others – MOST- still want a sweet, nurturing wife who does most of the home stuff but wants a paycheck from her too.
But how can she be both mother and man? It doesn’t FEEL right to most men when their woman has a lot of masculine energy. She gives off controlling mother vibes to them. Because mothers use masculine energy when they discipline and teach their kids. So men grow unattracted to women who give off macho mother vibes.
Most women cant be really gentle and sweet -and focused on and driven to succeed in the world at the same time. How can she be both submissive at home and stressed over money and career at work? It’s ILLOGICAL. Very few women can do this.
And we wonder why the birth rate is plummeting.
We’ve sterilized not just our bodies but our souls.
This is not empowerment. It’s exhaustion. Hopefully the Age of the He-Woman is soon behind us.

Interesting. Agree that something is out of whack. Maybe it’s also a question of priorities. Our economic structure, which has, since the late 1970’s, made it very difficult for a household to survive on a single income unless that household is in the top 10%, surely has some responsibility for what ensued since in the family in the U.S.
