The reason this comes up is because I was reading Imp1 comments and replies to them and he’s mentioned multiple times before that he believes that the actual answer to a lot of this is making artificial wombs so that you can cut out women from making kids and relationships with women have to be about something else. That would mean that since women can't use their wombs as a bargaining tool, their intellect and personalities have to be what keeps a man interested, at least imo, and I can see why it would appeal to him, but are they even reasonable?
I haven't done the research myself and thought it would be more fun to have a discussion over it, but still, I’m just curious as to how the tech works if at all. I've seen things where the tech is being “suppressed” (hidden from the public like a lot of current tech we use today was during the Cold War, ala the internet), but is that true, or not? It's just genuinely an interesting topic to me.
It's all almost entirely irrelevant. Average men don't support women politically over their own best interests because of some calculated position on how that will increase their likelihood to reproduce, they support women because it's instinctual and because feminist-controlled society tells them to. An instinct that was bred into males to protect and care for females over other males or even themselves for thousands of generations. If we had artificial wombs and a few million years to wait, yeah, maybe that would be enough time for that instinctual trait to go away, but until then, the average man's desire to protect women, and belief that women are wonderful, isn't something he reasoned into, and it won't be something he's reasoned out of either, artificial wombs or not.
