Thanks for the explanation of 'diffuse' – but this is precisely the origin of the paradox of capitalism
Capitalism requires ever expanding workforces
Women were made to work to expand the workforce, they were sold this induction as a liberation
By this means gained independence of the family structure at the price of dependence on much larger and oppressive economic imperatives, which imposes the ‘diffuse benefits’ way of thinking
Which reduces the fertility rates, which reduces the number of productive workers to pay the pensions etc for the increasing proportion of the elderly retired which….results looking for workers elsewhere, results in a shift to financialisation and de industrialisation
Which process also incidently boosts up the numbers of gays, or as you say, the attractiveness of the gay lifestyle – enjoy the single life à deux, and import foreign made babies if you must
In France the label applied to women is – ‘married to the State’ – you should hear African migrants boasting about the fat pickings to be had in EU
