Default My Theory About Why Feminism is Currently Irrelevent to Millenials

Things go top down in this country a lot. That means, elites decide how things are -- put that information on the media networks they own, and understanding flows downhill from there. At least for most people on most subjects.

Trump and Bernie Sanders are examples of bottom-up movements, where people not in elite circles make enough noise to force the elites to deal with them. This happens in this country and will more and more -- but the day to day is top-down.

Feminism is top-down. The top females in society are rich (white or white-acting) women. Rich white women have the most privileged position in society besides rich white (or white-acting) men. Men have to trade comfort for responsibility -- but nevertheless are given more power that lasts much longer into old age.

The elites wanted to put women in the workforce and create more skill labor. This started in World War II and it proved hard to put the Ginnie back in the bottle. Free market forces destroys the family dependent on the government and the social contract of high paid male labor...but the wealthy are the last to change.

Everything stayed patriarchal with the wealthy. Boys were expected to make more money than girls. The prettiest girls from good families get to marry the boys from the most promising families. The way to socially advance as a women is still through marriage and management of that marriage.

Even when women have these impressive-sounding careers...often they are simply pet projects in the eyes of their husbands. An interest like girls have at those pageants. "This one knows how to juggle and is an accountant -- check out that ass!"

So when it comes time for the Harvard feminists to write essays about the oppression of women...they are stuck in the past aren't they? They are living the past -- or the present if you are rich.

So by all means rich ladies -- please get rid of all these old perverts that keep the 1970s alive for your class. Just don't assume it works like that for younger middle and lower class people. I wouldn't dream of sexually harassing someone just because I had an important job. I would expect to be fired upon accusation to be honest.

All the important people I know from my age group are women with bum-fuck boyfriends that play video games when their at work. This whole "good ol' boys" running the top is going to die with Boomers and Gen-X. Millennials are going to be the bitch boy generation from what I can see.

Edit: It has occurred to me that rich Millenials might still find Feminism useful. In fact, that is why there is so many Sexual Harassment cases now probably (among the elite). But otherwise feminism among lower class Millenials seems to breed this kind of excuse that does more harm than good. "If I was a white man I'd..." I don't think so honey. Not unless your talking about the military special forces or something. If you didn't get into Standford its not because you weren't born a white man -- not in 2017.
