Why did Lenin's feminism fail? Women were given equal rights, yet still faced sexism and only rarely occupied top positions in the regime.

Just because you give Women equal rights doesn't change the men's view on them.
>>2538029
Because women were not eager to become men and give up their privilege of not having jobs at all

>Women were given equal rights, yet still faced sexism and only rarely occupied top positions in the regime.
By that standard, why did feminism in the United States fail?
>>2538161
Because women became whiny little shits that demanded more and more without deserving it
>>2538161
It didn't because we have a legislative body that's 20% female... Russia's is only 13.5% female
I think that proves pretty well and good compared to those backwards wife beaters
>>2538029
Capitalism passively promotes feminism since in that system better work means better results and limiting 50% of the potential workforce in an economy that is based on mostly mental contributions is not worth it. In Communism it literally doesn't matter. You can beat the shit out of your wife and keep women from occupying high positions since half of the jobs are already pointless and cost inefficient, while the state apparatus does nothing of note but the brutal oppression of anyone who resists their rule.

That's retarded, you retarded

That's literally the reason for it. Go back to reading whatever fairy tale narrative of history you prefer. Also, learn some English, you >retard<
Just because the state says "There are no differences between men and women" doesn't actually make it so.

Look at Russia now, if gender equality as a norm could spread beating your wife would not be a culturally accepted, state-supported act. If you think a few meaningless military and political promotions mean jackshit in regards to the larger population, you are a retard. Every major social change has its roots in economic reasons.

You don't even fucking know what you talking about.Make some research next time SJW cunt

Equality means equal opportunity, not guarantee of 50% position in whatever jobs you like, duh.

We are dealing with a true intellectual here

What's your definition of success, dummy?
Ideally in either capitalism or communism the female workforce would be unleashed into the greater economy by having most household tasks be professionalized, so a smaller dedicated service of well paid professionals can do the domestic chores for society, allowing people to pursue fields better suited to their talents and inclinations.
However in both capitalist and socialist countries, large-scale adoption and national pushes for this kind of rationalization of domestic life have historically floundered.

I'd accept multiple definitions for it, but what we see in Russia and postcommie states does not fit any of them.

This. You can only change the workforce after you change the culture surrounding it.
