Has the feminization of western society become the manifestation of modern wokeness? It’s an uncomfortable concept, but one that appears to be backed by facts. According to Camus on X:
Everything we call “woke”—empathy over rationality, safety over risk, cohesion over competition, inclusion over free speech—is just the natural outcome of institutions becoming majority-female since the 1970s.
She points to surveys: ~2/3 men prioritize free speech, ~2/3 women prioritize inclusive society. Men lean “ethics of justice” (rules/facts), women “ethics of caring” (context/relationships/emotions).
Examples: James Damore fired not for facts but because it made women “feel bad.” Kavanaugh hearings: masculine side demanded evidence, feminine side focused on “she’s crying.”
Her take: When women predominate, politics/institutions tilt toward subjective feelings over objective rules—even if many women reject it (e.g., best Kavanaugh books by women critics).
This 2:46 clip is bold, polarizing, and ties demographic shifts to cultural ones.
Agree it’s a key driver of wokeness? Or overreach? What’s your read on the gender gaps in free speech/inclusion polls?
