Post-Feminist Dating Chaos

I think the post-feminist mentality has been unfair to men, and in turn it has screwed over both sexes when it comes to dating. There is a confusion about the roles of men and women in dating. Not that gender roles are or should be simplistic, but an insistence on conflating gender differences with gender inequalities has meant that post-feminism has created an uncertain dating environment that is more complex than perhaps it need be. This article is a follow up to an earlier article on men not growing up. Read both.

yes! my thoughts exactly. i'm not saying feminism is bad or wrong, but you can't have equality and "traditional" gender dating hierarchy at the same time.
