 <p>Since the topic here is specifically cultural decay, I will mention some relevant descriptive writing from other cultures.  The Old Testament does a great job in describing the decay of Israel/Judah from the beginning under King Solomon to the final fall of Judah to Babylon.  Decaying Athens is well described in the comedies of Aristophanes. The beginning of Roman decay is described by Juvenal.  Late Rome is described by Ammianus Marcellinus who I discussed <a href="https://saidit.net/s/nonmorons/comments/9e6y/the_antony_option/">here</a>.</p>
 
-<p>One common feature of all decaying cultures is feminism and family instability.  This is related to promiscuity and I will discuss the dysgenic effect of promiscuity later.  For now I will just describe what happens.  Once punishment for adultery (sex between a married woman and man other than her husband) becomes reduced, it becomes in women's genetic interest to become promiscuous.  I discuss why below in <a href="#dysgenics">Genetic Decay - Dysgenics</a> and also in my post <a href="https://mikraite.arkian.net/In-Defense-of-Feminism-tp570.html">In Defense of Feminism</a>.  But the result is feminism which is essentially a slut power movement.  This feminist degeneracy is described in many decaying cultures.  The Old Testament describes it in decaying Israel, Aristophanes in decaying Athens, Juvenal and Apuleius in decaying Rome, and <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Secret-History-Penguin-Classics/dp/0140455280/">Procopius</a> in Byzantium.</p>

 <p>Beside the dysgenic effect, feminism causes family instability which harms the raising of children.  So this directly harms the culture.  Also men without stable wives are less committed to their society and so less likely to contribute to society.  So feminism is an example of both a cause of decay and a product of decay.  It is a product of deteriorating religion which results in lessening punishment for adultery which results in feminism.  And it is a cause as I described.</p>
