Not sure if you're being sarcastic, but I've personally seen plenty of peer-pressure from women to women, to enforce some conformity.

Often it's the high status women that spend the most effort on enforcing established social norms that hurt most women.

I've been following this issue for decades and early on a lot of it was supposed to be around body image issues. It was claimed that men had these impossible beauty standards and womens issues were largely due to not living up to them. Then the internet became popular and it became possible to quantify the gender of people making these body shaming comments, turns out it's mostly other women. Online dating further proved that men are attracted to all sorts of women and while a specific man may have certain things he prefers, men in general are very forgiving, in fact it turns out women are the ones with impossible standards, they all chase after the same 1% of men.

Then there was the wage gap stuff, it was popular for a while, and as that was looked into we found women make different choices at work, they take more sick days, go on more vacations and work less overtime, not to mention they tend to choose less demanding jobs in the first place.

So now it's this undefinable and unfalsifiable "patriarchy", this new one doesn't really make specific claims but rest assured men are the source of all the worlds problems.

Of course not they are perfect and without flaw.

Please don't take HN threads further into ideological flamewar. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for.

> Do women have any problems not caused by men?

No, of course not. It's axiomatic that all women's problems are ultimately caused by men.

thank u

I don't know if this was an extreme case of ideological battle or trolling, but either way it's against the site guidelines, so please don't do it here.

Case in point.

Enormous amounts of problems. My own wife says that she hates other women far more than she hates any man she knows...
