In the 60's a few [Jewish - like many revolutionaries] women got up and spread the ideology of "feminism". What have been the results of this ideology? On the positive side [one aspect among numerous] - women have advanced considerably in the job market and today countless women are able to make a good living and work at professions that give them a sense of fulfillment and they have contributed considerably to improving the world. Everything has positives.
But what about the negative? Well, think about it. Because of the importance women were indoctrinated to attribute to their careers, they pushed off marriage and children, had fewer children or didn't have children at all.
That means that TENS OF MILLIONS OF CHILDREN have not been born because of feminism. If one appreciates the value of EVERY HUMAN LIFE, the unique properties and qualities that every individual possesses, realizes that the loss is beyond imagination. That is besides the countless millions of fetuses that were murdered [and will be today as well] because of this ideology.
OK - So more women are lawyers and doctors etc. is that worth the loss of all of the precious souls?
We can add on to that, the hundreds of millions of hours that children did not enjoy the loving company of their mother's because they were busy working. That is not something to take lightly.
I will add that feminism has had a very powerful impact on the frum, Torah community as well [despite the fact that people aren't conscious of it].

So imagine how much good we can bring to the world if we spread positive ideologies.
