This is utterly ridiculous. Women weren't happy when they had no legal recourse if they were victims of domestic violence or marital rape. Women weren't happy when they were legally classed as chattel, under the ownership of their nearest male relative.

Any assessment of a person's satisfaction is, by definition, a function of their expectations. There is significant evidence of mental illness among suppressed women in the archaic era, and even more significant evidence of the horrific treatment of women deemed to be mentally ill because of their desires to be empowered, equal or just to have sex with someone of their own choosing.

Feminism isn't some power play seeking to create a female master race with men as their slaves. It's just a movement that says we should all have the same opportunities, based on our talents rather than our prejudices.

It's about fairness and I'm fundamentally concerned at the motives of any person who posts content that argues against fairness.
