"By 1980 we felt as feminists that it was important to look at our specific oppressions and articulate them. But our attempts to recognise different oppressions very quickly developed into a hierarchy of oppression. We moved away from looking at the complexity of women's lives to a points-count system, where the oppressions were added up. She with the greatest or most oppression was right - about whatever topic was being discussed. It happened first in London. A friend wrote to me about a meeting she had attended where one discussion was settled when a woman said 'Speaking as an Irish woman I think X'. Her opponent in this discussion had replied 'speaking as an incest survivor, I think Y* Naturally, Y was the course of action decided upon. My friend commented, 'The sad thing is that the Irish woman is also an incest survivor, but she is not ready to acknowledge that in public - if she had, she would have won the argument.? The points-count system developed further after a conference on Child Sexual Abuse in 1985. Numbers were limited, the conference was full, and some (white) women were turned away. Then a group of black women arrived and insisted white women leave so they could participate. From then on places were left at conferences for black or other additionally oppressed women. The reservation of places later extended to social events. [...] Then there was the other side of the coin. At the Lesbian Summer School in 1988, I disagreed with a black woman and a white woman in a debate on pornography. A socialist-feminist journal reporting on the conference mentioned me by name, and accused me of racism as I had argued with a black woman and an Irish woman. This was what was liable to happen if a woman did not at once concede she was wrong, and the woman with more oppression was right. This pressure resulted in a great deal of silencing. How then to articulate your views in this climate? Clearly, you had to have an identity to speak from. You had to be able to say 'Speaking as a ..? to even enter a debate. What had been part of your oppression became your identity. [...] The effect of Identity Politics has been to stifle debate. Debate still goes on in academia -- there the name of the game is debate. For these of us outside, debate has more or less ceased. Identity Politics finished off most of our newsletters. Identity Politics inhibited discussion at conferences until many of us ceased going to them, and finally no one was willing to organize any. Without debate the [Women's Liberation Movement] cannot function."
-- Sandra McNeill, "Identity Politics," in All the Rage: Reasserting Radical Lesbian Feminism, 1996

Arizona State psychologist Suniya Luthar [...] found that the women who managed motherhood most adaptively had strong relationships with other adults. These women reported feeling unconditional acceptance, comfort from loved ones, authenticity in relationships, and partner and/or friendship satisfaction. Luthar wrote: "These findings are extremely encouraging in showing the strong protective potential of close, authentic relationships in buffering women through the myriad challenges of motherhood." Her conclusion reminded me of something an older male professor told my class during grad school: "It's the mother's job to take care of the baby, and the father's job to take care of the mother." Before I had kids, that struck me as benignly sexist. Now it also feels incomplete. Because what is a father taking care of a mother if it is not also taking care of the child?

I can’t explain to you all how frustrating salmon run is in splatoon 3 along with the rank up battles.
I’ve already seen people talk about how hard salmon run is but dear god it’s bad. I’m only at overachiever and I’m struggling to get past my third wave, Each. And. Every. Time. I’ve played around 7 matches today and have only been able to fully complete 1. Maybe I just suck, which is probably true, but for the love of god couldn’t they just adjust the wave pressure a little bit?
As for rank up battles, it’s probably just a random issue for me, but I’ll be on a winning streak, doing great, 15 or so splats per match, and then I get to the rank up battle, and all of a sudden the enemy team has a splatting with a lust for blood and a hawk-eyed E-liter. Ik it’s probably just some random match making thing and I’m just super unlucky, but I’ve been on S rank for 2 months and can’t get up to S+ yet because of this

All the Rage: Mothers, Fathers, and the Myth of Equal Partnership (Darcy Lockman, 2019) 
“In the 1980s and 1990s, relative resources theory posed that women did more unpaid labor only because they brought in less cash. 
Today that theory has been upended. Sociologist Veronica Tichenor, who wrote the book on women who earn more than their husbands (2005’s Earning More and Getting Less: Why Successful Wives Can’t Buy Equality), told me, 
“The women I interviewed hinted that they didn’t ask for more at home because to try to exert power over your husband is not to be a good wife. 
Some said, ‘I don’t want him to call me a bitch.’ We let men do that. Every time women show dominance, it’s unattractive. It’s unfeminine. Un-wife-like.” 
Rather than using their earning power to balance any scales, high-earning wives chose to demur to masculine prerogatives. 
The rising status of women outside the home has actually increased our inclination to reinforce male dominance inside it.”

There is actually no known human society in which men are responsible for the bulk of all childrearing. Cross-cultural anthropologists report that in every part of the world, across a wide range of subsistence activities and social ideologies, mothers are more involved than fathers with the care of their young.
