 I blame protestantism for feminism. Without Virgin Mary venerated as Mater Dei, as Mater Misericordae, as well as other Saints and devout women from the caliber of Joan of Arc, Lady Godiva, St Genevieve, etc etc.

Without that, women have not their rightful place anymore, which is something that contributed to the rise of feminism. Protestantism robbed women from their spiritual place and left them as a prey to feminism and other forces of Satan. 
 I blame the 60s. 🚬☕️🤣 
 Oof. I don't think you understand how much this kind of topic still rages on within much of protestantism itself today, at least the branches that haven't gone completely fruity. 

But also, mainstream feminism stems from a few pricks who wanted women working and out of the home to increase factory production, increase taxes, and lessen the surity of the foundations of home and hearth, thus making all people more easy to manipulate. I don't think that you can actually make the case that it was primarily protestantism that directly lead to the cancer that is feminism.  
 Would’ve been a few aligned interested parties, but at the end of the day it only means freedom of choice.

More corrosive is the welfare state lowering the reason for a man and women to be together, she could always ‘marry’ the state. 

My view is the welfare state has to go. Leave charity to the churches. 
 womens rightful place is standing over your crushed bones
