reading about Etruscan understanding of gender is giving me the distinct feeling that the progress towards equality and fluidity that we have been making in the past few decades is less "progress" and more "a bookend"

in reply to @numberonebug's post:
oh! they were just very striving for egalitarianism; women could own property and be sexually promiscuous and involved in politics, and they valued in women similar things that are valued today (ambition while staying harmonious, ect, lots of the dialectic tension that's a part of modern womanhood im seeing glimpses of in this too), and all of that was slowly smothered by acculturation with Rome, and living in The West really feels like we're living in the cultural shadow of Rome, so,, idk, it's like oh we're actually not building something new we're actually just breaking down something foisted on us by imperialism thousands of years ago.. very normal non sicko thoughts haha
i mean i have the same sicko thoughts. its hard to avoid when the enemies of life keep venerating lost rome!
