Feminists finally got their way with something as simple and insignificant as a board game that only a handful of people are ever going to buy.
Hasbro has released a new version of the popular game Monopoly, only this time women get an extra $40 for passing “Go” than the men do for passing. The entire idea is to fix the gender wage pay gap that doesn’t even exist.
According to a statement released by Hasbro, the game is a “fun new take on the game that creates a world where women have an advantage often enjoyed by men.”
CNN reports that “Ms. Monopoly,” unveiled this week, will celebrate “women’s empowerment” by reconfiguring the classic Monopoly board to be more “female-friendly,” including bumping the pay of female players who make it all the way around the board’s list of properties by rewarding them with extra pay. The theory is that women make only around $.70 for every dollar men make in the real world, so Monopoly will give them an advantage.
“Unlike the classic game, women will collect 240 Monopoly bucks when they pass ‘go,’ while male players will collect the usual 200. The idea is to create a game where women make more than men, the first game to do so, according to Hasbro,” CNN reports. (Daily Wire)
What has actually occurred with the creation of this game is two things.
First, part of their hidden agenda has actually come to the surface. While it’s not been completely hidden until now, it’s just being demonstrated through this game and it’s something that they don’t often talk about.
It’s not that women want to be “equal” with men, they want to be better than men.
But secondly, what this game has actually done is undermined and underestimated women and their competency to do the things that men can do. They are giving women a handicap or an advantage because they feel like they can’t win otherwise.
