The Truth About Feminism’s Impact on Marriage and Men | Janice Fiamengo

I’ve greatly enjoyed this video (1:04:50), a discussion with Janice Fiamengo on top form (her only form?) and the British psychologist and psychotherapist Laura How. Laura’s YouTube channel is here, her online therapy website here. Two other therapists are available to book through that website, one being Zac Fine, who provided a video for ICMI20, Living With The Trauma of Losing Child Access (50:34).

  1. This really epitomises the disaster of the combination of marxist theory and following your emotions. I regret waiting until the children grew up to get divorced – I’ve wasted my life Put succinctly because the initial emotions of romantic love fade over time a woman decides she doesn’t love her husband and will only pretend to love him while he apparently continues to be a loving husband and an exemplary father. When their youngest child is 18 she detonates the Divorce bomb. Needless to say she’s unconcerned about Josh her husband and is mainly regretting this because it turns out their (or as she puts it her) children and many family and friends find her behaviour inexplicable and cruel. It really is the epitome of today. It was her who was living a lie and being untruthful to Josh and everyone else, they couldn’t read her mind! But of course her responsibility for her own actions utterly illudes her.

  2. Another example. Jealousy. Rather than consider it a blessing that her partner’s hard work on his career provided the means to ensure she and their sickly child had less pressure than many in their position she eventually allows her jealousy to drive him away, she admits he’d likely have continued to be the “husband”. The telling remark is “The first two years of motherhood were brutal and I’ve largely erased them from my memory. I can recall a handful of landmarks including trips to Garda, Pisa, two to Ibiza and another to Brittany, all undertaken with a poorly baby.” In two years they’d had 5 foreign holidays! Talk about “first world problems”. The sense of entitlement and “victimhood” almost as great as the previous example. “Women can quickly be left carrying everything while life continues smoothly elsewhere.” Yet she wasn’t “carrying everything” because someone, him, was paying for those holidays and her leaving “work” (an academic) no doubt the mortgage, cars, food heating lighting etc. Having a baby made me hate my fiancé: His life went on, while I had to be the perfect mother to our very sick daughter. That’s why it’s no surprise Jesy Nelson and her partner have split: REBECCA TIDY | Daily Mail Online

    Of course the facts speak volumes, he has gone on to get married, have more children, probably with wife that isn’t consumed with jealousy he can earn enough to give her the choice to stay at home or work. Clearly willing to “commit” and fulfil obligations and responsibilities. Perhaps in her dotage she might reflect that having a hard working, responsible partner able and willing to support a family, in some style (they weren’t holidays to Butlins or Benidorm) who she jettisoned ….. well might be the one that got away. But as a female journo surrounded by similarly entitled women convinced that they deserve “it all” … probably not.

  3. A very simple and well presented explanation of the fact that the supposed radicalisation of young men is in fact not why there is a “gap” between the sexes. It is in fact that women in particular have shifted to be radical leftists. https://youtu.be/_RXUUdhqZSQ?si=JHlx911k4ey5MTfW The chap is probably too young to remember that for most of the last century all the discussion was about how it was women who were “conservative”. He touches on the key process behind this long term shift. Basically it wasn’t just being female it was being a female married and either having or seriously wanting children. Basically women who’ve grown up and find they are part of a unit with responsibilities which is very different from the perpetual adolescents devoted to feminism. He also illustrates why the family unit is the chief target of marxist/socialist derived ideologies. As he says it becomes the focus of peoples lives and is inherently conservative in terms of putting family before other institutions (such as the eternal classless society). As he says removing it removed a point at which the juvenile echo chamber of the social media world/whorl could/would be left behind as the young woman engages with a real world of real decisions, choices and trade offs and compromises. In a sense another agreement with the Marxists feminists socialists and queer/gender theorists that their main target has to be the family in order to create their Utopias.
