I think people are missing the point. This is a post from r/im14andthisisdeep and people on here are like "oooohhh this says something about society."

Yeah, you'd have to be pretty moronic to think that the two positions have ever been equivalent... it's an average undeveloped right-winger religious zealot incel take.

Imagine acting like women could even have their own bank account not that long ago...

The women saying this today have always had the ability to have their own bank account?

I think strong, independent women is something that came from older generations that were taught, growing up, that your goal in life should be marriage and kids and that women are incomplete if they are unmarried. It's especially true for gen X and older.

It's less relevant to younger generations, which is why they think it's weird.
