Reply To: Women- a golus and Geula paradigm

So now some practical examples – my thoughts. As the world is in a state today ready to receive the Geula any moment, the world has shifted to a much more Geula oriented state than golus state in mentality. I’m thinking of elaborating this in another thread.

As far as women are concerned here’s some examples:
The world has massively changed. It used to be that people had to slave and work really hard just to survive. Much of it was manual labor where women were useless.

So women were a liability. They often couldn’t support themselves and the men had to support them. Of course the women worked just as hard in the house and having the children but the first priority was survival, which I think explains why in the unfortunate case of divorce, everything belonged to the man – because he was doing the essential primary work without which they both couldn’t survive.

Since modernization which lessened much of the manual labor and to the point that today people don’t work too survive, but to have a good income, good food, etc quality, women can be self sufficient and aren’t a liability anymore. In fact single women earn more than single men in the same field in some cases.

So today when a woman gets married, she isn’t a burden to take on, and her husband is her master, rather she is giving up her earning capacity which could’ve rivalled her husband for the sake of building a family – where she won’t be as competent to work when pregnant and with household responsibilities etc. So as a mother and wife, today she is seem as an equal, not a subordinate.
