The
Truth about Gender Equity
Written
by Jennifer Morse, MS PhD
Recently,
I read an article describing a term for the atrocity, the crimes
against society, perpetrated by the feminist movement. The term is
gender equity. Gender equity calls for woman to be financially
earning and producing equally in relationships with males. What
gender equity does not take into account is the multiplicity of
currencies in relationship and gender differences.
Gender
difference refers to strengths between the sexes along a continuum
that is gender ordained not gender neutral. It’s a broad brush
stroke that has exceptions but to ignore gender differences is to
strip them of their powers for good.
The
implication of gender differences leads us to understand there are
differences across the sexes; inherent strengths to be utilized for
the betterment of the whole relationship. Gender equity would have us
ignore those differences.
Surely
the woman’s liberation movement wasn’t originally designed to
disenfranchise women from their children. In the process we left an
entire generation of children untended and un-tethered from the
stability of a nuclear family.
And
let’s not forget the ‘woosifying’ of men that gender equity
demands. But that’s a story for another day.
Today
the politically correct term gender equity shames women in general
saying “take up your financial responsibilities in a relationship.”
What if a woman’s native talents are to nurture? What if a man’s
native talents lend themselves toward outer layers of life, making it
easier to find work in the world? What if gender equity doesn’t
exist?
A
liberated woman can work harder than men and still make less money.
This is gender equity? Woman can try and fulfill the role of mother
to children in the evening hours at home only to feel harried and
scattered torn between two demanding realities. Is there anything
more heartbreaking then separating a woman from her baby six weeks
after birth, before her cervix is completely closed from child birth,
to return to work and pay another to tend her newborn? All those
precious moments to bond with her new born stripped away in the name
of gender equity? What kind of gender equity supports this
inhumanity?
Let’s
tell the truth. Women still do the majority of housekeeping. Women
still are the primary parent. If we have any more gender equity I
don’t know how women and children will survive.
Another
truth, men still make the lion’s share of money in the work force
with higher paying jobs and higher status jobs. Is that gender
equity? Somehow I think something was lost in the translation of the
feminist movement.
