Upper-middle-class women of all shades, who read – and believed in the discontent of upper-class white women like Betty Friedan, et al. Not all white women, sir, just sayin’.
Even so, inferences can be drawn. Just as they’re still drawn from Stanley Milgram’s now-discredited “prison guard” experiments at UCLA in the late Sixties.
Actually I read that all those psychological experiments of that era are pretty suspect. The subjects were ALL white college students and presumable all needed a couple bucks. Not exactly a representative sampling of our population. Or of humanity.
“Police did not release many details of the assault, which came about six months after a much-publicized rape on a commuter train in October while other passengers were present. Fiston Ngoy, 35, is charged with rape and related offenses in that attack.”
Hope and pray my intel is no good.

Chivalry seems moribund, too. Anyone remember Kitty Genovese?

Toxic masculinity was thrown out with the bath water. Why be chivalrous if you are a racist, worthless piece of shit since birth?

White women have much of the blame for voting us into this mess.

I remember Genovese —but didn’t that turn out to be less truthy than we thought?

YUP….But Milgram put himself out as a moral arbiter, with his conclusion set in stone. Gag me!

Indeed, but Milgram was a rock star and took it to a whole ‘ other level: Involvement with female subjects, falsifying data, etc.
