Feminism in prehistoric times / primitive culture
#60
RE: Feminism in prehistoric times / primitive culture
In early hunter-gatherer societies I would think the people were too busy surviving to enforce gender roles, apart from the obvious biological roles, presumably. So I would imagine that everything was treated as a communal task, as we see in many modern apes.

In such cases, obviously, feminism, as we see it today (and not the extremist, man hating feminism) was not required.

It was likely not until the introductions of some forms of theism that women were no longer treated as equals and where feminism was needed.

Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni:

"You did WHAT?  With WHO?  WHERE???"
