My experience is, the men who are most vocal about "gender roles" in the household, are also the laziest when it comes to work. I knew a guy who just went on about men being providers and importance of gender roles. Yet he was the laziest guy in existence, he smoked weed from morning till night, never held any job except being a waiter, tried the military once but got kicked out of the army for laziness, and wouldn't even apply for an entry level office job because he said he'd feel embarrassed working "below" others when he is the smartest person he knows. He still wanted a 24/7 hour housewife and didn't expect to do anything around the apartment. It was clear he was fixated on a fantasy, but put no effort into his part of it. Lots of guys are like this.

    this always happens when “non-civilized” people conquer bureaucratic societies, they’re not used to administering civil institutions and get more lazy/corrupt than the previous ruling class,
    just look at how badly the mongol successor states administered the areas that their ancestors conquered, eastern europe and central asia was heavily depopulated, the middle east permanently lost the technological & intellectual parity it had with the west, & chinese institutions heavily decayed under the yuan dynasty,
    there’s literally countless examples throughout history but its funny to see in modern times

    • @A86
      @A86 Год назад +4

      Agree, although during the Islamic Golden Age the Middle East and much of Africa was ahead of the West, more than just parity. Remember, during the time most of Europe was in the Dark Ages. The technological prosperity of the Greco-Roman times was mostly lost. The Byzantine Empire was the only part of Europe that had parity with the Middle East, the Songhai Empire, Abyssinia, and so on at that time. The Kievan 'Rus was large and had a big military but was technologically behind Byzantium back then. The blossoming of Europe came a little later during the Age of Conquest.

      @@A86 during the early golden age they were more advanced than the west but by the 1000s majority of the prominent muslim caliphates fractured/collapsed and were largely replaced by petty sultanates who consistently got conquered by nomadic peoples, by then most of the northern hemisphere was in technological parity for about 2 centuries before the mongols decimated everyone except western europe
      it’s really underestimated how horrible mongol conquest and rule was, majority of societies they pillaged are all extremely authoritarian today, it’s probably not a direct correlation but its a strikingly coincidental one
