01 / evaluation

I think, furthermore, I know a lot of women like that of my generation, but I also know a lot of Russian men of my generation, who, when Russia banned homosexual propaganda, and banned adoption of Russian children by gay couples, and then when they vilified the single-sex family of, let’s say, two men adopting a child or two women adopting a child, so many Russian men I knew of my age said, “What do you mean?

I think that’s how this bougie, educated upper-middle class in Russia wants to differentiate itself, by reaching back to the Russian, deeply Slavic past.

Ethnic Ukrainian women, you name it, because the cultural stereotype was that Jewish men don’t drink, they don’t hit you, they are family-focused, family-oriented, they’re involved fathers, they bring their money home, they don’t waste it at the bar or on bottles of vodka with their buddies.

05 / evaluation

By the end of the Soviet period, the average Soviet woman, after her working hours outside the home, spent about 40 hours a week doing domestic labor, which was pretty good because if you were a woman in the countryside, and you had even fewer modern conveniences, and you had farm animals and a garden to tend to or a plot of land to tend to, they did about 55 hours of domestic labor in addition to the work they did outside the home.

The women artists you mentioned fit into this tradition because there was so much intellectual ferment around the time, and women were at the forefront of that, and they were the subjects of the theorizing around that.

07 / evaluation

I think that started to change in the last decade or two among an educated urban elite, where fathers wanted to be present at the birth, they wanted to be very active, involved parents, but that’s a tiny sliver of the educated white-collar class.

08 / evaluation

When they implemented the policy to try to get a baby boom after the war, they tried to make sure that women wouldn’t just be stay-at-home moms by tying food places and daycare nurseries to a woman’s workplace to keep them in the workforce because, given the catastrophic losses they suffered in World War II and the years preceding it, they couldn’t afford to have women stay at home the way they could in the West.

09 / observation

I’ll be honest, I don’t know Ukraine very well, but what you do see is that Ukraine is reaching back to a different set of norms from the Soviet era, which is women fighting in the military.

10 / evaluation

Even going into the war, the gender imbalance was pretty skewed in the Soviet Union because before 1941, when Nazi Germany invaded the Soviet Union, you had World War I, followed by the revolution, followed by the civil war, followed by collectivization, famine, mass political repression, which mostly hit men, and then World War II.

11 / prediction

Oh, I would love to write about what’s happening on the American right with women, about the Erica Kirks, about the trad wives, about how there are some American women, but I suspect more American men than women, who want to embrace this traditionalism, these traditional gender norms.
