Well clearly you are here for intelligent discussion over the topic

”Marriage fundamentalism can be understood as an ideological and cultural phenomenon, where adherents espouse the superiority of the two-parent married family," she wrote. "But it is also a hidden or unacknowledged structural mechanism of White (and Black) heteropatriarchal family supremacy that is essential to the reproduction and maintenance of family inequality in the United States."







The destruction of the married two parent family has been the goal for a long time. She’s simply justifying a new angle of attack for them to pursue. First they destroyed Black families and are working hard to do the same for all others irrespective of their color. It doesn’t matter. Cohesive societies are founded on stable families of all colors.

IQ is a symptom of the socio-economic dysfunction. It is not the argument you believe it to be.

IQ in under-developed populations can rise pretty quickly over only a couple generations with the right structure in place.





No. The low IQ is the cause of the socio-economic dysfunction, not the other way around.

Yes, low IQ populations can rise in societies with right structures put in place by higher IQ indivuals.

If that were true, then IQ could not increase over time with socio-economic development (which is incorrect).

Just ignore this tripe.

It’s literally a fill-in-the-blank game. Take any subject.

Water polo

And insert into the sentence.

“Water polo reinforces white supremacy.”

This is actually an old mindset.

I heard a professor make the same case back in the 80’s.

I imagine a future where the government will require people to interview, date diverse races before make the ultimate decision to marry.

It does increase socio-economic development, but the gap between races remains constant.

We are dealing with an insane radical feminist Neo-Marxist professor here who needs to get her head examined.

Pretty soon, the vaunted USA will begin to treat Christianity as a disease manifestation of White Supremacy.

IMHO, this is the final destiny of the USA.

Here is a good, new book on the subject



quote:

In The Two-Parent Privilege, Melissa S. Kearney makes a provocative, data-driven case for marriage by showing how the institution’s decline has led to a host of economic woes—problems that have fractured American society and rendered vulnerable populations even more vulnerable. Eschewing the religious and values-based arguments that have long dominated this conversation, Kearney shows how the greatest impacts of marriage are, in fact, economic: when two adults marry, their economic and household lives improve, offering a host of benefits not only for the married adults but for their children. Studies show that these effects are today starker, and more unevenly distributed, than ever before. Kearney examines the underlying causes of the marriage decline in the US and draws lessons for how the US can reverse this trend to ensure the country’s future prosperity.

Based on more than a decade of economic research, including her original work, Kearney shows that a household that includes two married parents—holding steady among upper-class adults, increasingly rare among most everyone else—functions as an economic vehicle that advantages some children over others. As these trends of marriage and class continue, the compounding effects on inequality and opportunity grow increasingly dire. Their effects include not just children’s behavioral and educational outcomes, but a surprisingly devastating effect on adult men, whose role in the workforce and society appears intractably damaged by the emerging economics of America’s new social norms.


Kearny is referenced almost IMMEDIATELY by the person in OP

I sugget you listen to this Freakanomics podcast with her from 2017

I made a thread on it once the episode dropped.

I tend to agree. I’d assert, a traditional marital structure creates a situation whereby intelligence is more of a factor in the choice of a breeding partner than in the alternative. The alternative is doing more to perpetuate low IQ in the populations that embrace it instead.

That doesn't explain why you brought up race.

You either have an agenda relating to linking race to non-racial IQ discussions or you don't understand what "white supremacy" means

It's amazing how stupidity runs rampant in this country these days. Everyday there's something new that baffles the mind.
I guess we're more aware of the bizarre shite since social media is so readily available.
And isn't it funny that most of the wierd crap we hear is coming from Democrats?
