#because I just don't really gain anything from only observing how one group is reacting to events

Sometimes I find a YouTube video recommended to me and I'll like the idea of it but something will bother me, but it feels wrong to really hate the video for it. In this scenario, the video was about the infantilization of women. And like nothing said was really wrong but it just felt odd to make it a woman issue, the things mentioned. Things like people using phrases like adulting because it's a digestible way for millennials (in this case that's what she was referring to and the studies she references uses) to approach being an adult because things like finances and milestones are harder to hit now.

This lines up. I fully do think that the growing lack of ownership and wages not reflecting the growing price of living has caused a phenomena like this, but I kept considering how this isn't just a woman issue. If this is happening it's affecting literally every young adult - adult alive in the west right now. But like the premise and title is about women so who am I to be bugged by it.

Y'know? It isn't like the YouTuber is really obligated to talk about men going through similar mindsets.

#i also didnt finish the video I got most of the way through and I sorta got sick of asking to myself #“yeah I wonder how men are handling these things” #but knowing it would likely not be addressed because the video is about women and again that isnt wrong #I guess I'm just more interested in less targeted philosophy discussions #because I just don't really gain anything from only observing how one group is reacting to events #i like a full scope #if I know how others are handling a situation I think I might be more helpful and understanding
