being on strike is specifically refusing to do a job until the other party corrects conditions, being unemployed is just not doing any job with no bargaining power over the other party. Being on strike has demands, being unemployed just means you don’t have a formal relationship with an employer. In the same way, if women are trying to avoid their undo amount of labor through hooking up, they’re just deferring it to later, not changing it.
How is it deferred until later if they choose not to get in any serious relationship? Also only getting in serious relationships later mean over your life you are doing significantly less work.
Sorta is a way of rebelling against women being forced into domestic labor for men, just wanted to throw that on the pile of commentary
?
Women are generally expected to do the bulk of the social reproduction work for free if they’re in relationship
I don’t see how hookups rebel against this. They might not be doing the work but that leaves the expectations there
Well, I mean, theyre materially not doing the work.
Yeah, but there’s a difference between having a strike and just being unemployed
How so?
