..erm, more precisely, we still use gender for inanimate objects sometimes in English. Calling a ship female, for example, or giving a gender to a nation. Still nothing like other IE languages, though."Compromises are not always good things. If one guy wants to drill a five-inch hole in the bottom of your life boat, and the other person doesn't, a compromise of a two-inch hole is still stupid." - chegitz guevara

Western Women have a very grave right of veto, which I believe is able to make men accept just about anything - they can refuse to have children!
Western culture is seriously sick in the head when it comes to the feminist problem.

"Sexism" is so thoroughly ingrained in the English language that we'd have to alter some of the most basic stuff to make it gender-neutral. For example, possessives may be sexist; they appear to have started as an idiom along the lines of "Fred, his hat," which was later contracted to "Fred's hat." Strictly speaking, when we use that possessive form to denote a woman's property, we should use apostrophe plus r, as in "Sarah'r hat." Otherwise we're just perpetuating the old sexist system which assumes everyone who owns stuff is male.
Or maybe it's just the natural flow of a language that nobody should dedicate that much energy to thinking about. Whatever.Comment

Well yes, Europe's population growth is now negative.
Quick question: what happens to feminist countries which have negative growth rates?
Quick answer: they have to rely on importing people from non-feminist countries.
Quick summary: therefore, feminist countries will eventually become non-feminist countries again.

Feminism means giving all the rights and advantages formerly enjoyed only by men to women.
But wait a minute, that doesn't take into account one thing - only women can give birth to children!
So ... what do you think happens when women become as busy and productive as men always have been? Do you think it results in women having less children?
You guessed it right! And guess what happens when a society has less children with every passing year? It has to bring other people in who have massive families.
But only non-feminist cultures and religious groups have big families.
Therefore ... feminists breed themselves out of existence, and will be replaced by Godly people and more healthy cultures. Feminism is decadence.
