Thanks for reminding me of this silly essay I read in the NYT last week.
On the one hand, the author is correct re: the status games and ideology in relationships as a toxic thing.
But of course the article is in the service of further austerity (i.e. "ditch the male breadwinner" as cover for further producing precarity in the workforce by being gender neutral about it - it's not just "women's work" and service jobs anymore!). I want a communism/welfare state that also provides for everyone (even the incels). Indeed, our future will be better for women since they won't rely on men. If these idiots can't learn to date/socialize outside of a literal hostage-taking fairy tale myth (i.e. be dependent on me woman princess because I shield you from patriarchy), they must report for reeducation.
