feminism is an ideology to put women to work along side with men in order to make profit for the rich and powerful. while illuminated Karl Marx was organizing the workers of the world to be united into a coherent workers force that can be exploited more aggressively, his partner in crimes, Friedrich Engels, also rather enlightened fella, was set to organize women into a coherent labour force as well, since prior to his efforts women were left to look after their families and homes and generally did not work for pay. 

With birth of the feminism ideology, obviously an illuminating strategy, this was about to change as women became less free to look after their love and family lives and more "liberated" to work for the rich as hard as the men do, and after hard day's work they still got their love, kids, home, and family life to worry about and look after. 

They were gaslighted to believe that they were liberated with the right to work and the right to vote, voting does not change anything that the powers that be don't want to be changed, however, and contrary to the popular believe, neither does the work makes people free, nor does the voting makes people independent.

Many people don't value each other, the truth, the good reasoning. the rich made women work for them to make them profit, those rich people are men and women, after all, behind every powerful man is even more powerful woman, and those poor people they oppress are also men and women. 

Poor men and women were duped to slave for the rich and sacrifice their own selves and self interests in the process of enriching someone else. Many men also want to have a baby, and take care of it, and raise it well, and many men can't afford it either. 

Divide and conquer. Feminism taught women to hate men, for some strange reason, and was widely adopted by the dykes from hell movement, however that did not help your average normal woman at all, who still like the men, want to be with the man, want to have kids with their man. Man oh man. 

So it comes down to some smart evil men and women on top of the pile oppressing idiot benign men and women at the bottom, while dividing them among themselves -- divide and conquer -- husband vs wife, parents vs children, women vs men, however the rich themselves are laughing all the way to the bank.

Some claim that feminism "hates the confines of patriarchy." naw, it does not. feminism is an ideology, and a stupid at that too. all it means is a convenient rhetoric, aka blah blah la-la-land, to oppress women who are otherwise living better life independently at home working for themselves and their families instead of working for an old aristocratic elites and the new slave-made bourgeoisie affluent classes. At some point when people get duped, the road to recovery starts from recognizing the fact that they got duped and now they know better. 

As long as the excuses arise to rationalize it this and that way the oppressive ideology, although no amount of rationalization worked so far to justify the faulty reasoning and the sad outcomes it yields over and over again, the process of healing, mending, and reconciliation cannot start. It a Stockholm syndrome trying to rationalize the obviously oppressive ideology which promotes the reasons of enriching the few at the expense of the many.
