"The Patriarchy" Isn't Here In The West -- But It's Coming
With the waves of migrants from Muslim countries. Glenn Reynolds writes in USA Today on the "unprecedented mass-migration being experienced at present by Europe and, to a lesser degree, by the United States":
Hundreds of thousands of people -- soon, it seems likely to be millions -- are coming from countries where the patriarchy really is a thing. These are places where honor killings, female genital mutilation and the legal and social subordination of wives and daughters to husbands and fathers are considered the norm. (The Dutch are already getting upset about the Syrian refugees who are bringing child brides with them.)Some of these people, of course, will eagerly adopt the culture of their new lands, and try their hardest to assimilate. But many more will not. They will, as people tend to do, cling to their native culture and customs regardless, either ignorant of (or more likely) feeling superior to the traditions of their adoptive countries. (This is normal for all sorts of people: When Americans do that, they're called "ugly Americans.") And to the extent that their behavior is visible, some percentage of the native population will adopt it, at least to some degree, especially if it seems that it is successful.
The end result will be that patriarchy will be back in the West. Because personnel is policy, and immigration is all about who will be staffing your nation in the future. Keep that in mind as these things are debated.
Yay. Soon, feminists will have something real to complain about!








No, Amy. There is no complaint under the new feminist creed:
If a college man and woman get drunk, and to satisfy their lust, they hook up, that's part of the rape culture. She really didn't consent, even if she doesn't realize that for months or years, or until her mother reads her diary recounting the event. This is bad;
If a Moslem immigrant from a 7th century culture sees a modern woman who is dressed immodestly, which thus incites his lust so he beats and rapes her, that's diversity. Diversity is good.
I trust that you now understand what is good versus what is bad.

A few hundred years ago, waves of Europeans migrated to North America and soon overwhelmed the native population. The prevailing culture soon became that of the migrants.
I can foresee the same thing happening in Europe.

Feminists might be apologizing to all the unevolved old guys and asking for some help. Me,I'm busy.

"If a Moslem immigrant from a 7th century culture sees a modern woman who is dressed immodestly, which thus incites his lust so he beats and rapes her, that's diversity. "
More to the point: Western men are dull and boring. Muslim extremists are exotic and exciting, and being dominated by them is hot. There's no other possible explanation.

Hey, Richard Aubrey, I agree with you; after beating me up for decades don't dare ask for MY help.
