Literally if you think that every person around the world going back to the beginning of humanity before like 1800 was a raging misogynist please read a fucking book
#idk why im acting like im continuing smth here when this was in the replies of a post i didnt rb#but it pisses me off so much when people take that 'dont glorify the 1960s! it was racist!' or whatever mindset#[which is fair whatever] and then is like. well men never treated women or gnc people well so i dont think we can say anything positive#about any time.in the past#like???? what?#please learn anything#and you care so much abt misogyny maybe uhhh learn about your own history irt the womens rights / suffrage movement being started by#white women interacting with native cultures and seeing that women there were actually equals and going 'hey wait!'#specifically the Seneca group of the Haudenosaunee confederacy#literally one of the first big womens suffrage events is called seneca falls#but yea there is a long history of gender inequality that can be somewhat traced back to the advent of agriculture#and no one is denying that#but that isnt worldwide and especially isnt the case in societies that arent reliant entirely on agriculture#and many societies that did / do rely on agriculture werent / arent sexist! points to all of turtle island#and same with lgbt oppression. the idea that oh you couldnt go back to ''''Cave Man Times'''' because theyd 'kill you with a rock' for#being gay or whatever like. holy shit#im so tired of it#the gender binary and oppressive gender structures and 'het only' type shit is relatively recent in the grand scheme of human history#and even then is relatively limited on the grand scheme of human cultural diversity#anyway. idk if that makes any sense
