There is no doubling here – only random noise.

Anything else is one wolf deciding to eat two lambs. Also, if you enslave almost half the population you definitely don't have a democracy anymore -- unless your slaves are allowed and able to vote and participate in public discourse like anyone else, which likely would not quite be slavery anymore.

> You will find that in professional work for a salary, they are not paying you for hours but for many aspects of the relationship they have with you.

Of course they are paying for hours. An employer has no right to control your life outside the hours it pays for.

Has the world ever not been "increasingly uncertain"?

That's a stupid comparison and you know it.

Yes, and many would be uncomfortable around black women. Or lesbians. Too bad for them, those are women too.

Sending unsolicited dick picks is sexual harassment. A woman changing in the women's changing room isn't.
