    y’all yes I know vaccine isn’t a cure but it wouldn’t make that much sense if she said “you have a vaccine and people don’t want it” considering vaccines weren’t in widespread use back in 1890 so probably indeed not many of them would want it 👀

    Honestly, every time I read a historical source I’m surprised how many job opportunities there were for us, even before the 20th century. I kinda get the impression that “women have to stay in the home and raise children” was more of an upper class idea. Plenty of women, especially in the middle and lower classes, were journalists, authors, nurses, small business owners, laborers, etc.

    • @jaceyjacobs4013

    • @lurategh
      @lurategh 2 года назад +288

      But wouldn't there still have been incredible pushback against those women joining those professions? Except for maybe seamstresses and other traditionally feminine jobs where it was considered women's work (also in addition to laborers/factory workers). And female authors regularly used pseudonyms so as not to give away the fact that they were women. And I can hazard a guess that if they wanted to be a doctor rather than a nurse, they would've gotten laughed off all the way into next Tuesday. I get what you're saying though, and not disagreeing that some women did hold those jobs. I just can't imagine it would've been easy. Or were standards for middle and lower class women different when it came to work? (Besides the obvious bc I know lower class women have always worked outside the home.) What I mean is does anyone know if the prevailing attitude was "oh, it's fine if _those_ women work" or was it more "no woman should be doing that kind of work period (unless it's traditionally feminine work) but they are, so whatever"?

      And disclaimer: I am not saying that life is easy for men. But there is inequality between genders and this inequality benefits men, not women. (And I didnt even mention the specific problems of sexism + other opressions, like racism, ableism, lesbophobia, transphobia...)

To the point we’re being ‘sexist’ saying awful things about women was normalised in the media. Look at old interviews, how they sexualised celebrity women don’t even get me started with the movies especially in the 00s. Everything was seen as ‘joke’ and not serious now that people are beginning (I don’t literally mean that) to question many things, people now say ‘everybody is so sensitive today’. When it’s not case, people have always been sensitive is just that you can longer get away with your ‘Jokes’ just an observation I’ve made.

      Comparing the status of the average woman nowdays with an upper class woman would obviously not compare too well. I doubt the average woman back then could spend her time in the comfort of her home with her books. Also the adjusted wage gap (accounting for education/experience/hours worked/same occupation etc) is only 5% now. That's nearly fixed. If we could get "women jobs" (Nursing, teaching etc, which has more women) pay better tho, that'd be great, but that's more an economic issue than a feminist one I think. Men working "dirtier" and riskier jobs (on average, than woman) naturally should have decent pay as compensation, as well as STEM jobs that have more men in them based on personal choice, are simply more profitable, leading to an unadjusted pay gap.

      That was the point I was making. The medieval medics may not have had the technology we have, but they understood the benefits of a comfortable environment on patients.
      Hospital acquired infections are a much bigger problem now than when I was young. That's why people are sent home as quickly as possible after surgery. Until the last 20 years or so, large well ventilated wards with big windows were the norm. Now we rely on extra levels of technology to do what simple ergonomics used to. Some hospitals are using UV to "clean" operating rooms. Not because it is more efficient, but because it is cheaper than employing and properly training a human cleaner. UV can only kill germs that are not in shadow. Technology is not infallible and is often used to save money rather to improve patient care.

      @@dakotamabry1645 Yep, except worse as being poor is in no way exclusive to white people, so it is possible (and due to systemic racism that affects pay in a similar way as sexism) even more common to suffer from poverty and racism at he same time.
      Kind of like having covid and the flu, also in the sense that there are plenty of people pretending one or both of those do not exist.

      @@dakotamabry1645 As a poor white woman, I don't have to deal with racism so no, not about the same. If there were a version of me whose life was identical to mine in every single way except that I was black- that version of me would have a more difficult experience because she'd have to deal with all the terrible things I've had to in my life... plus deal with racism on top of all that.

      @@vadalia3860 I'm also a poor white woman I dealt with sexism and racism.. kinda sick of white people projecting black problems as if they dont go through the same crap every one else does .. tired of people telling black children that because they aren't " privileged " what ever that means they will never have the quality of life that everyone else has .. guess what I've met plenty of black families living more successful lifes then I have and with better paid positions.. I've also been harrassed and threaten by cops who overstepped their bounds.. the black, Korean and Hispanics at my school were treated the same and had no problems fitting in .. I can get along with everyone and treat them like a normal person and not feel sorry for them - that's not an accomplishment its common decency . I'm sure If i was black nothing would piss me off more then some random strangers automatically pitty me and assume i was poor and not smart enough to accomplish anything on my own . Get off your high horse
