Country that finacially punishes women for having children has lowest birthrate in the world.
There's also a huge misogynist backlash happening in South Korea right now. Men are getting more and more reactionary in response to perceived gains in rights that Korean women are experiencing.
That is to say that the unbelievably sexist country is getting more sexist, not less.
It's pretty fucking bad if this FT article is anything to go by
SK's is crazy.
That quote is confusing...
I only understood the meaning of it when I typed it above, before that I read it as if it said that Korean women on average made about 66% of the shared income in a home.
Now I realize that they meant that Korean women on average makes about 66% of what a Korean man makes, which is terrible.
