Marriage Rates Are Near Their Lowest Levels In History — Here's Why
Check number 5. Lower marriage rates due to more women leaving home for the work force.
they list 5 reasons, only one of which has to do with traditional gender roles. also, the notion that woman now have greater social, political and economic freedom contradicts your claim that things were better when men and woman adhered to traditional gender roles (unless you meant better for men, which would still be debatable). your argument ignores that and the other four reasons mentioned for low marriage rates. and you didn't even try to substantiate your other claims (fewer std's, less homosexuals etc.).

You asked for cause and effect, which I substantiated for marriage solely because lower marriage (and monogamy) are the cause of all the other things I mentioned with the exception of homosexualty and sexual-fluidity, which are rejections of gender norms innately.

Greater social, political and economic freedom have been great for women. I didn't imply otherwise. It hasn't been great for the family structure in our society or relationships.

but you didn't substantiate it. i asked for cause and effect and you took a list of five reasons, only one of which had to do with traditional gender roles. if you wanted to substantiate cause and effect, you would need to proove that men not being the sole breadwinner was the main cause of lower marriage rates. and if you claim that things were better when traditional gender roles were more relevant, then you have to take greater freedom for woman into account. you might have a trade off, where more stable family structures were exchanged for greater individual freedom. in order to proove that things were better, we would have to define better (for example indicators for personal happiness, domestic violence etc.) and then try and compare the before and after. maybe people (stayed) married because they couldn't afford to live alone, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they were happy or things were better. there is a reason why gender roles changed, and that is that people felt oppressed by them. racists would probably point to 1950's America and claim that things were better when black people knew their place. they could point to lower crime rates, less unemployment and other things and argue that black people don't know how to deal with freedom as evidenced by black incarceration and murder rates and that they should return to their traditonal role, which is serving the white man. that's the same logic you're using here.

Slavery is not a bad thing. Racism is a good tool to use if the moor enslaved cacs instead of helping them they would have done the world a good service

You would need to prove that I said it was the main cause. Find that quote if you can.

and if you claim that things were better when traditional gender roles were more relevant, then you have to take greater freedom for woman into account. you might have a trade off, where more stable family structures were exchanged for greater individual freedom. in order to proove that things were better, we would have to define better (for example indicators for personal happiness, domestic violence etc.) and then try and compare the before and after.maybe people (stayed) married because they couldn't afford to live alone, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they were happy or things were better. there is a reason why gender roles changed, and that is that people felt oppressed by them
Personal happiness can't be measured statistically and domestic violence doesn't have data going back that far (the numbers start in the 80s, where they've proved steady with the exception of a huge spike in the 90s)

This is a thread about relationships so when I say 'better', I'm speaking in terms of relationships. There's no objective, data-based way to determine relationship success better than marriage.

racists would probably point to 1950's America and claim that things were better when black people knew their place. they could point to lower crime rates, less unemployment and other things and argue that black people don't know how to deal with freedom as evidenced by black incarceration and murder rates and that they should return to their traditonal role, which is serving the white man. that's the same logic you're using here.
Blacks serve the white man today now more than ever so poor analogy.
