So the way I see it is like this, generally speaking
Right: Less Equality of Outcome and Wealth Redistribution, Less Government, More Individual Freedom, Less Taxes, Less Welfare, More Military expenditure etc
What about the individual freedom of women? Is that not important in your view? Only men should be free, not women?
Left; Greater Equality of Outcome and Wealth Redistribution, Government, Less Freedom, Greater taxes, Greater Welfare, Less Military expenditure,
So the Left in general gives women the right to choose who to marry and whether to marry and how many kids to have and whether to have them, and the freedom to work in various fields and to choose to live as independently as they want.
To you, this means less freedom for men?
Why do you feel that women's freedoms are expendable?
Why should women have less freedoms than men?
If you are confident in your ability, you wont want income redistribution and other government interventions that may diminish any advantage you may have over others. But if you are weak or lazy then you are more likely to want handouts that disadvantage those stronger than you.
Not really. You could become disabled tomorrow and need disability benefits. Your parents may need old age benefits. Many people are on benefits because access to education which is required for higher paying jobs is next to impossible for those who are not rich.
So, no, it's not laziness. In fact, I could surmise that the laziest people out there are those who were born with a silver spoon. Most working class and poor people are actually the most hard working people. If/when some of them have to use welfare benefits, it's because the system is skewed to privilege those who come from wealth.
As for taxes, I am happy to pay taxes to support clean, efficient roads, firefighting services, effective emergency services, and to provide a safety net for those who are less fortunate than me.
But the thing is, rewarding strength, fitness, success etc is important for a sociery.
There are many things important for society. Cooperation. Social support systems. Education. Sense of belonging. Emergency and disaster relief services. Infrastructure. Etc. Etc. And they all cost money. We pay taxes because we enjoy those services. Whinging about taxes when you are using public roads and highways, and can call the cops and firefighters, and don't have to live in a country where the majority are uneducated, is just short sighted at best.
The other link is about how the political landscape shifted significantly to the Left once women were given the vote. One reason they give is that women were afraid to be dependant on their husbands so asked the government to provide for them instead. Replacing dependance on a husband with dependance on a government is a really stupid thing to do.
Provide proof of this. That's a pretty hefty statement that has no basis in reality. You just want to blame women for everything, it seems. Literally, everything. You want to project your issues with women onto the world. Fortunately, that's not how the world actually is.
