If men stopped working…the world would continue on.
If women stopped working, then things would get ugly.
What?
there has been an instance where this happened.
it was 1975 and icelandic women decided not to work for one day.
working as in cooking, cleaning, taking care of the children, doing chores and so on, not only “not showing up to your workplace”. women did nothing that day, except showing up in reykjavik and protesting for gender equality, equal pay and equal representation in parliament, you know, cool stuff.
you know what happened? havoc. men were left with food to cook and children they never took care of to pick up from kindergarden and entertain for the day. they went en masse to the food shops buying sausages because they could cook nothing else, they had to bond with children they never spent more than a couple hours a day with. they struggled combining their work day and the domestic tasks they had to sort out. and this just for one day.
iceland in 1975 stopped working and things indeed got ugly.
so ugly that women in the following decades became woke AF and soon it happened that women became president, took half of the seats in parliament and achieved one of the best living environments in the world.
is your astonishment solved now?yES
Very true.
people who are like “yeah, but i’m sure the same thing would happen if men left the workforce!!!” not really tho bc look at WWII??
In WWII the USA made special work treaties with Mexico. Women numbers in the work force went through the roof. However, if any gender stops working and doing things such as home care as well then of course it will collapse. Just because inequality stems from business practices doesn’t mean that there aren’t other willing to work or do the chores. If that’s what you are finding in your life of “men” then maybe you should soul search better. And for example let’s bring it to caveman days where the women tended to the bonfire and children while the men went out and hunted for food. If the men didn’t work then what would happen?
Omfg shut up bye
Have fun hunting for your food then lol bye
Lmfao okay first of all this post is talking about modern times and not the goddamn caveman days??? I don’t have to hunt for food so it’s irrelevant???!
This person seems to forget that in the wild the lioness goes hunting while the male lions watch the cubs…. So even if it was caveman days I’m sure there were humanoid women hunting shhh
