Are you a secret sexist? The test every father of daughters needs to take
Now, one of the country's leading girls' schools has challenged fathers to take their own unconscious bias test, to prove that it is still a scourge
Huxley wrote an introduction to the posthumous publication of J. D. Unwin's 1940 book Hopousia or The Sexual and Economic Foundations of a New Society.[30] On 21 October 1949, Huxley wrote to George Orwell, author of Nineteen Eighty-Four, congratulating him on
"how fine and how profoundly important the book is". In his letter to Orwell, he predicted:
Within the next generation I believe that the world's leaders will discover that infant conditioning and narco-hypnosis are more efficient, as instruments of government, than clubs and prisons, and that the lust for power can be just as completely satisfied by suggesting people into loving their servitude as by flogging them and kicking them into obedience.[31]

998 years to go until humanity goes extinct or even less if similar trends continue.
Aren't you optimistic!

I'm a feminist, I'm also a working parent. My partner is a stay at him dad. As a parent I also will have control over how my children dress, both my son and daughter will dress appropriate for their age.
However id be an idiot to think unconcious boss doesn't exist. For example when my oh tells my son he throws like a girl or cries like a girl. So I tell my oh to stop talking like certain men. Do I have the right? Yes because I would prefer my kids dont have these outdated sexist stereotypes ingrained in them.

I'm afraid I don't get your point? Telling my oh not to say put my daughter down while talking to my son is hardly going to bring about the end of the world. I'm not bothered if my kids want to wear high heels or boots as long as they wait till their feet have stopped growing, as heels cause abnormalities.
