progressives still fail to make the connection between family relations
and politics and economics. While they often want more
partnership-oriented families for themselves, because they still think
in terms of right vs. left, religious vs. secular, or conservative vs.
liberal, they don't see the larger picture. They don't see that how a
culture structures the primary human relations - the relations between
the female and male halves of humanity and between them and their
daughters and sons - is foundational because it's in these relations
that people first learn both experientially and through instruction what
is considered normal, moral, even possible.
So to respond to your second question, yes, people who care about
politics should also care about what kinds of families are raising the
future generations of citizens.
