Yes essentially birth control destroyed the family. I'm not sure why but it seems to coincide with birth control
"This paper argues that it is due to the fall of the shotgun wedding. Before the pill and liberalized abortion both participants in making a baby had equal responsibility for making that baby. The man and this family had social pressure to support the woman and baby. After available contraception the woman became responsible for not getting pregnant. If she wanted, abortion was available. She decided whether to keep it or not. That freed men to blame the woman and her choices while refusing to take any responsibility for the pregnancy. The death of shotgun weddings."
Oh, what am I not allowing myself to post? When the real answer is genetics. Right? They are a subspecies. Correct?
Truth. No you resort to this because you want to avoid the writing on the wall. In the 50s and before black housholds stayed together more than white households. I think the problem is very disconnected from race. outside of the political pandering to race. I think it is a combination of socialism and social engineering. If there is white privilege it is that they don't have to uphold racial stereotypes. they don't have to think a certain way because of their skin color. making them harder to engineer.
There is a phenomenon among the black culture. Something that young black people are looked down on by their elders for doing. Acting white. This is a rather loosely defined accusation it can be as innocuous as pronouncing words properly, or valuing education. It is a swamp of grabbing hands to pull people down. if there is white privilege it is the absence of these grabbing hands. an absence of "White culture." The individuals that participate in that swamp of grabbing hands may not realize they are being used but they are. Keeping people down makes them easier to control. So "black culture is defined by typically left wing white people and their surrogates. I think culture dictates IQ more than genetics.
Yeah, its off topic..... A subspecies is a rank below species, used for populations that live in different areas and vary in physical characteristics and behaviors, but that can successfully interbreed. Well we have the lowest ranking IQ "subspecies" which includes Blacks, Native Americans, Aborigines, Inuit's, Mayans.....generally peoples unfamiliar with western or Asian scholarly traditions. Midlevel are European, North African and South Asians At the top of the IQ ladder would be Jews and Asians who highly value a scholarly tradition. So that begs the question do IQ test results reflect the genetic ability of the "subspecies" or differing ethnic traditions and values.
There is an important factor that this doesn't seem to account for. People forgoing legal marriage while still engaging in a social/religious marriage. My now legal wife and I did that for over a decade, until we got to a point where the legal benefits were of a significant advantage. Otherwise, it just wasn't worth our time or money.
I think "in the 50s and before black housholds stayed together more than white households" was pulled out of your butt and the rest of your statement doesn't seem to have much to do with the explosion of single parenting after the introduction of contraception and abortion. The stigma associated with being a single parent has eroded and babies being put up for adoption has significantly dropped post contraception. In fact, marriage has been dropping in all developed countries. 67% of babies in Iceland were birthed by unmarried women.
Modern feminists don't need to be stoned. They're stoning themselves. There's nothing society could do to them that is worse than what they are doing to themselves. Fastest growing demographic of homeless? Unmarried older women. The only thing modern feminism has given us are promiscuous young women that create criminal weak young men.
I don't suffer disputes with fact. if you have a problem with reality it is because you want something that isn't true to be true. thats not something I see as rational. So despute facts to your hearts content that won't make them less fact. Does unmarried pertain only to legal marriage? I don't think we would see such an elevated rate of criminal behavior in certain communities if they had fathers in their lives. Unless you want to believe that there are genetic inferiorities. Not something I would claim.
Hey, you are free to prove that "in the 50s and before black housholds stayed together more than white households" with facts, but you will notice in the OP, which you read, the chart shows a much higher single parent rate among African Americans in the 50s than whites. That doesn't indicate that "Black households stayed together more than whites". By 1960 nearly 50% of Blacks still lived in poverty. Poverty makes households more unstable and poverty also leads to higher crime levels. Right-wingers have made a choice, the problem is not poverty.
