Where everyone belonged to everyone and you basically had no right to personal autonomy. If someone wanted to sleep with you, they could.

And you were the social freak if you said no

Still trying to figure this out. She's introduced a lot of bizarre phrases but never once defined them

Oh lort

This is her conclusion on friendship:

Did she ever define what is wrong with the nuclear family?

really I doubt their relationship would even be different

She literally has no idea wtf she is talking about

I am confused by she doesn't just say polygamy and has to say non-monogamy every time

also rhey can make their own relations, they choose to traditional

that’s what I said

Not technically. She basically said it's designed only to benefit men and subjugate/trap women

She's just complained about how everything is made for straight white men, including the traditional family structure which favors men as making money and being able to leave the house while women have to care for children and home

Well she isn't wrong... the nuclear family could be modernized and that would be highly preferable to the reality she proposes

She completely ignores that this could be a discussion between couples for family planning and what they want to do... and that for the majority of human history... the nuclear family IS the normal

she complains about women being a stay at home mom usually

She's said the nuclear family is a forced structure and less popular and few people actually want it

Acting like women can't choose the wife-life or the suburban life, it's always forced on them

Chapter 3 is called City of One...

Yea women who do that are aware they aren’t forced to, they wouldn’t get the idea men but nothing stopping them

I feel like we gonna get real narcissistic here.

Oh my god what page you at?

Quite honestly it's the life I'd prefer to have rn

Page 96/226

Oh I thought it was less, doesn’t make this any less sufferable

There are only like, 5 chapters and an epilogue it looks like

Each chapter is just as stupid as the last

Also why does she specify First Nations a lot?

they usually have nuclear lifestyles. In the past before Europeans arrived perhaps but now, they are mono

So he thought she was a hooker

I feel like this is a Canadian thing? I know other Canadians that constantly single out First Nations.

Yea First Nations got screwed over really badly

But she's specifically associating nuclear family with white people

So anything outside of that, she'll say they didn't do the nuclear family

Asians aren’t poc anymore

She also doesn't seem to associate having grandparents nearby or involved as part of the nuclear family...

I noticed. Welcome to being honorary white people lmao

They came up with BIPOC specifically to exclude Asians

Yay when being sucsessful is white

and Hispanics
