My paper on why feminists should *wholeheartedly* embrace policies that support care and care-givers, finally out in open access:

Claire Khaw
Any chance of summing it up in a sentence?
Anca Gheaus
Yes, although only in a very long one:
"Even if care-supporting policies mean that the association between women and care will be strengthened, and that as a result some women will enjoy fewer opportunities for great jobs, we should still support care; that's because, first, in unjustly unequal societies like ours some of these great jobs are rewarded in excess of what is just and should disappear; and, second, because only a small minority of people have access to great jobs - there is no real meritocracy to start with; care-supporting policies, on the other hand, benefit the vast majority of women."
Claire Khaw
What are "care-supporting policies"?
When you say "care supporting policies", do you mean patriarchy?
When you say "the association between men and women will be strengthened", do you mean "more men and women will marry before having children and stay together for the sake of their children"?

I see that you identify as feminist. What would you say are the fundamental principles of feminism?
Is feminism compatible with morality?
How would you define morality?
How would you define patriarchy?
How would you define matriarchy?
Is the West a matriarchy?
