    There’s actually a fairly compelling argument that women will destroy civilization if they don’t have equal rights. They’re more likely to produce children if they aren’t finding fulfillment in other ways (e.g. having a successful career). More children = more strain on the biosphere (increasing climate change, wars, pandemics, etc.)

        Where’s the error in that argument? I didn’t come up with it, BTW. Isaac Asimov argues this in an essay in his book The Roving Mind.

        I support feminism in any case for other reasons, but I think it’s interesting that there’s a strong argument for it even if you’re a misogynist.
