Why is feminism exclusively a western phenomenon? >and Humanities

>>2308222
Islam, Hinduism, and Confucianism have superior bitch-slap capability.

>>2308222
Because the West has been comfortable enough to develop social theories.

>>2308347
Thats just asian meance ingeneral

>>2308222
Because the west has had a long time of economic prosperity and technological development. You're not going to see a return to traditional sexual morals after the invention of oral contraceptives and latex condoms for example.

Feminism is rising in India.

Because you touch yourself at night.

That was all due in part due to Western influence.

>>2308497

You have no idea whether they would have emerged anyway with or without Western influence and that more than suffices to show OP asked an idiotic question based on an inaccurate statement.

>>2308222
Feminism is a consequence of liberalism and egalitarianism. When men started to consider each other as equals, women wanted to partake on that equality too.

>>2308499
They clearly emerged to a lesser extent, even in Japan and South Korea which are developed economies. Where is the Japanese femen? Similarly these countries do not have mass immigration from Somalia and such.

It is genetics. White people are less susceptible to stress or something, it is why whites are more open to new ideas like those of the current far left. pretty sure I heard about a gene somewhere responsible for it.

Unless you are one of those people who pigheadedly refuse to accept genes affect humans this should be obvious.

Both South-Korea and Japan didn't become Western voluntarily. They had to be bombed first.

Feminism came to be in the West because of prolonged economic and political stability.

not even the Reich was free of welfare queens

This is the real answer. This is why the Middle East and Asia was better off than Europe during the Dark Ages, they had stability in which to expand and create theories.

Because Jews

Because western civilization has foundations in disscussing civil libirties and how they change over time.

Western civilization was the first with the economic development and surpluses to enable women's advocacy. Women without slow cookers and washing machines have to do so manually and have no ability to mitigate domestic duties with patriarchy produced machinery.

Asian here, feminism comes with westernisation, infact modernism and westernisation is synonymous and almost viewed as the same thing here

>>2308727

That shows that success and social Westernisation go hand in hand. In isn't an argument for some genetic basis of feminism, which is what OP and others here are arguing for.

>>2308746
Because "social westernization" is parasitic and needs the technological backbone to feed itself. Once you cut the power grid, feminism goes out as well.

>>2308762

Maybe so, I'm inclined to agree that is likely.

However, as I said, I wasn't disputing that. I was disputing this claim there's some sort of genetic factor unique to Europeans and European derived peoples.

>>2308222
It's not unique to western culture, gender equality movements just take a different form in other cultures.
