When Feminism Lost Its Way
In 2014, a Columbia University student named Emma Sulkowicz began carrying a 50-pound mattress everywhere she went on campus-to classes, to the dining hall, even to her graduation ceremony. Her "Carry That Weight" performance art protested what she described as the university's failure to expel the man she accused of rape. She became a media sensation, praised by the National Organization for Women, invited to the State of the Union, and compared to Christ carrying his cross. Yet there's a twist to this story that rarely makes headlines: the accused student was cleared by the university after an investigation, and Facebook messages revealed Emma had sent him warm, flirtatious texts after the alleged assault, even asking him to "hang out a little bit" before they "hook up." This case reveals something unsettling about modern feminism-a movement that began with the righteous goal of equality has morphed into something that often denies biological reality, demonizes men, and ironically leaves women less happy than before. Here's a paradox worth pondering: as women have achieved unprecedented freedoms and opportunities, their reported happiness has declined. Since 1990, women consistently report being less satisfied with their lives than men, and less happy than their mothers and grandmothers were at the same age. What went wrong?
