"The denial of human nature and the denial of sex differences was motivated by this push to minimise any differences so that women could be equal with men in the economic sphere."
In a world where gender equality and career choices remain hotly debated, do biological differences between men and women inherently dictate professional success, or are our new societal norms the true barrier to achieving workplace parity?
In this episode of ARC Off-Stage, Claire Lehmann and Louise Perry tackle the contentious topic of gender differences in the workforce. They challenge the "blank slate" view of human nature, exploring the complexities of gender, biology, and professional outcomes. From the historical context of the sexual revolution to the persistent gender pay gap, these insightful women highlight the nuanced realities of men and women's experiences in various sectors.
Claire and Louise discuss whether biological predispositions influence career choices and performance, examining the impact of motherhood and the work-family life clash. They also scrutinise policies like those in Hungary that incentivise childbirth and consider their potential to
reshape gender dynamics. Join us for this thought-provoking exploration of gender roles, professional equity, and the future of workplace diversity.

The idea of sexual compatibility being a reason to have sex with the person you're dating is actually a really weak argument. My husband and I were virgins when we got married. Doing it the "trad way" means we both have gotten to explore and learn about our sexuality together and thus have built compatibility with each other along the way. We are compatible in our values and goals in life and starting from there the physical aspects are relatively easy to sort out. Likewise, "body count" for the sake of experience in the bedroom is also not as helpful as people assume it is. Yes, having more than one partner means you've "practiced" the actions more and could theoretically be better at the physical aspect of sex, but the flip side is that now your current partner may always be wondering in the back of their head whether you are thinking of, remembering, or comparing with someone else while you're being intimate with them

Perhaps. But I'm fairly convinced that early human societies would've helped one another out with childcare. And it's a relatively modern idea that the responsibility should fall solely to the nuclear family. I'd argue that childcare is a good social investment if the parents have other valuable skills they could be making use of. And if it helps sustain the population with healthy, well-adjusted children. Within limits though. Kids obviously need to spend a fair amount of time with their parents, especially when they're younger.

With extended families, if something goes wrong, then blame can be mitigated with an easier path to forgiveness (or justice) because "they're family" I the case of state sponsored child care, the biggest fear would be accountability. It takes forever for an individual to hold the state accountable. Because of this many families would just distrust the system altogether. I think the west will have another era of embracing extended families.

@andybrice2711 Ай бұрын

Is it positive or negative for the children, though? I think what we need to be asking is: At each stage of development, how much time does a child need to spend with their parents? And how much time is it healthy for them to spend with other carers? Because I'm fairly sure childcare is not a modern invention. People must've been sharing that responsibility since the beginning of human history. Even other animals do it.

@grannyannie2948 Ай бұрын

It is very harmful for children under three. At this age most children do not understand time well so every day is a new abandonment. Indeed more severe abandonment then one single abandonment into foster care. Leaving young children in childcare results in permanent emotional developmental harm.

@@andybrice2711 Traditional societies have a form of childcare which is provided by a grandparent or close relative, already well known to and trusted by the child, usually in the child's home or the grandparents home, close by. It is seldom for more than a few hours and is occasional, rather than daily. Children under four are seldom, if ever, left to others for care. Children over four or perhaps five, spend part of the day playing with neighboring or related children, under supervision of some or all of the children's parents. If the child's mother is not directly involved in this supervision, she is always close at hand and can intervene when needed, to cuddle and reassure the child. This is a very different model to modern child care. The idea of leaving a child for eight hours or more a day, five days a week, with an unrelated stranger, who also cares for other unrelated children, would appall women of my mother's generation. With the best will in the world, a paid child minder can not provide the love and sense of security a child needs, especially if caring for more than one child. Abandoning your child to the care of one or more strangers, who change on a regular basis, is a very modern idea.

Did anyone else notice how awkward this was? Louise is old school. I’ve watched her videos; she wants to go back in time. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. She’s in favor of single sex education, Christianity, and motherhood. I actually lean this way, myself. She’s a British nationalist, and can sense her culture is getting weak, which of course impacts women. Low birth rates means mass immigration from the 3rd world. Britain’s largest cities are now Muslim majority. Louise knows this, and she knows why. She’s connected the dots. Claire, on the other hand, is living in a totally different world. Firstly, her primary attachment is Zionism, which, if anybody knows, means that Jewish people living overseas are mere travelers from Israel who happen to reside overseas. Claire is Australian, but the security of Israel comes first. Secondly, she is a character right out of sex and the city. She’s all about that. Sexual novelty in the 20’s, coupled with college, then marriage 3 -5 years after graduation, with a pre-selected professional from her cohort. This is actually the sexual norm at the present. In fact, my own family has followed this path. Millions do. But be careful with this: only a few make it. The coming decades will reveal this. Some women, strikingly few, succeed in this. Most fail, which means, mathematically, that most men fail, too. Historically, the human race never practiced sexual novelty in youth, then got married later. It’s an elite ethic, not an ethic that can easily be duplicated by the working class. Elites once held a sense of noblesse oblige, a duty to care for those less fortunate. Which is why the elites have to be very careful with this. At the present, marriage is wrecked for the working class. Let’s see where both Louise and Claire are in 20 years. My money is on Louise.

This fact about JP colours everything he says, whereas as other types would have different, but equally valid, points of view.

The pay gap measure has so many variables that it doesn't really tell anything except men vs. Women as a whole.... To try to control millions let alone billions is totalitarian and authoritarian. If someone wants to discuss it , bring up their own experience, as it's too ambiguous and variable.... Also its completely money based value system - a total reduction. That'd be like men don't get nearly as much decision making power when it comes to home life.... It's probably true and even systemic... But to try to culturally coerce and come up with half baked solutions that will cost billions and polarize. I'm not saying to shush up about it... But I am saying to any particular interlocutor, to go further and show more of what you mean... Often it's just bopped out willy nilly to shut down or tally pointless metrics...

Women should spend the first five/ten years of adulthood seeking a husband. Men should spend those same years building a career (building a nest that will attract a mate). - Women who are (trying to be) pregnant get "free" healthcare. Children get "free" healthcare (kids shouldn't need to work 40 hours per week to see a doctor). These two would drastically reduce the cost, and therefore hesitation, about having kids. There could be a special tax status for homemakers (stay at home parents). For six years after the birth of your last child or until you start claiming income. During that time maybe the breadwinner of the family gets a tax credit representing the "lost income". Something like the equivalent minimum wage (min wage * 2000 per year). Or your healthcare is "free". States could also help by making products for mothers and babies free of sales tax.

@meganreese1486 Agreed! Also, most if not all sexual relationships have their ups and downs, so having previous partners has no predictive power over this particular relationship. The shallowness of "sexual compatibility" ignores the much more important factors of shared values, purposes, and love - hopefully construed in the deepest possible sense and not so dependent on physical attraction or 'compatibility' (whatever that is). Besides, compatibility is something that can be a result of a deep understanding of eachother's psychological and spiritual needs that manifests itself in how you love and make love to eachother, and that is not only maintained but developed over time if the couple is committed to that higher pursuit. That requires a commitment very different from the pass/fail judgement of compatibility/meeting physical needs (again, whatever that is).

Always gotta start these conversations defining men and women. I will just have to assume you mean chromosomes here. The problem that I dont see addressed is that yes chromosomes correlate very strongly with the things discussed. But you can find counter examples... so its only a correlation, not garenteed. Imo just because some catagories have statistical predictive power does not mean we should act as though they are real. Knowing someone is black has statiatical predictive power to predict if they will do crime... yet I dont want to use the catagory of race. Knowing someone is a man has predictive power in whether they should be a suspect in a violent crime you are investigating... yet I dont want to use the catagory of chromosomes. Taking things with strong statistical backing but with outliers, and then using them as real is kinda a "the foundation cant be changed" mindset. Why are you ignoring outliers? Why arent we talking about what causes these outliers? I dont want to act as though blak people are doomed to always be more likely to commit crimes. I want to understand why so the foundation can be improved. But thse conversations are had as if the foundation cant be improved. Despite there being outliners that prove these correlations arent garenteed, and dispite the rate of the outliers seemingly changing over history. Why are you talking as though the foundation is implite and garentees certain things when we can observe that this is not true.

Israel has no low birth rate issues compared to western nations. Ask yourself why with respect to culture, nationalism, family, … a people who feel safe and proud; who have not spent decades being wrecked by activism wrought by damaged people who bring no solutions for a hopeful future.

12:03 But WHY has she not been touched for years? Massive chicken and egg issues for every dead bedroom scenario. Example, I don't know if a single married man of any duration who hasn't talked about some type bait-and-switch type scenario practically immediately with sex once he is under the legal systems Draconian purview. A lot of it is totally unrealistic expectations on both people's part. What is informative is this us even happening now in same sex marriage. Good luck squaring all of THOSE circles.

Louise Perry is the second coming of Phyllis Schafly, ie just another anti feminist, throwing out bogus nonsense and ignoring historical facts.

"To have children is a public service". "The state should pay a salary to women raising children". okay Comrade.

Women who have children should be given leave and directly given money by the state not just tax breaks. That additional tax burden should be borne by all as mothers are providing a critical service to society. That is the solution. Vilifying men and lying about the gender pay gap is not the solution. Even if the gender pay gap was closed it would not ensure that mother are given the support or money they need. The additional money would probably just to to single more disagreeable women.
