How Women Tricked Men into Doing All the Work While Still Playing the Victim (Forbidden History)
In this eye-opening Based Camp episode, Malcolm and Simone Collins dismantle one of the biggest historical myths pushed by both feminists and modern “trad” circles: the idea that women historically stayed home doing minimal work while men did everything. Using cross-cultural evidence from hunter-gatherer societies, medieval Europe, Vikings, Spartans, ultra-Orthodox Jews, Islamic traditions, Africa, Latin America, India, China, Japan, and colonial America — plus genetic evidence from modern birds — they reveal the real division of labor: women handled the majority of reliable, grueling calorie production, farming (pre-plow), management, textiles, marketing, and household economy, while men focused on high-risk, high-reward activities like warfare, raiding, politics, and innovation. They introduce the “Sword and Shield” model of relationships and explain how the industrial era, plow, and wage labor flipped traditional dynamics. A must-watch for anyone interested in real history, gender roles, and escaping modern cultural brainwashing. Episode Transcript Simone Collins: [00:00:00] The researchers say the finding is clear, but the reason behind it is still unknown. On average, men were able to get about one meter, 3.3 feet closer than women before the birds took off. This pattern appeared consistently across Czechia, France, Germany, Poland, and Spain. It also held true across 37 species so Malcolm immediately turns to me and he’s like, “We know exactly why this is the case.” Malcolm Collins: Yes. This is the question that explains everything we’re going to talk about today, and I think proves without a doubt that this is not some malcolm malcolmnipulation of historical facts. You have been in rural Latin America, right? Simone Collins: Yes. Malcolm Collins: Take an image in your head. Simone Collins: Okay. Malcolm Collins: You’re driving down a rural road. You look out the side of a car, okay? You see somebody with a 60 pound jug of something on their head. Simone Collins: Oh, it’s a woman, obviously. Yeah. Malcolm Collins: Always a woman. Simone Collins: Always, always a woman. Yes. Malcolm Collins: you go to Africa, you’ll see this as well. You go to- Simone Collins: China too. Let’s be clear. China too. Right. Malcolm Collins: Yeah. ‘ Was it majority women doing the [00:01:00] harder labor when you’re- Simone Collins: Yeah, Malcolm Collins: 100%. Yeah. Yeah. D- Simone Collins: Yeah. Malcolm Collins: Guys, you do not know how brain cucked you are if, if a woman has convinced you, “ We just need to go back to the traditional way and I’ll stay at home and you do all this stuff.” Because you’re so strong, look at your muscles, could you open this jar for me? All you see as a woman, I could just never do anything. Would you like to know more? Malcolm Collins: Hello, Simone. Today I’m going to talk to you about the most diabolical brainwashing mind trick that feminists and women have ever pulled on males in human society. And it is that I will hear diet in the wool, males who identify as misogynist, red pill, post pickup artists, trads, go out there and say, “Well, we need to go back to the way things used to be, where women didn’t work and stayed in the household [00:02:00] and just cared for kids.” And I see their wives behind their fans with their villainous faces going. Speaker 5: あ。 Simone Collins: oh my God. Malcolm Collins: Their villainous laugh. Tucked their husband’s brains and their husbands believe that historically women didn’t work. And Speaker 11: We must let Malcolm Collins: misogynist, Speaker 14: think this was his I all right. That he Speaker 13: came up with. Speaker 14: All Speaker 12: right. Speaker 14: Now Speaker 13: he’s going to figure Speaker 12: it out. Don’t do all. Okay. I know what to take. Speaker 11: You don’t know what to do. Yo talk, talk, talk only. Speaker 12: Do you Speaker 14: want Speaker 12: my own? Yes, Speaker 11: I want you Speaker 12: to know. Speaker 14: Vula, how is business? Speaker 12: Oh, wow to me. My weak constitution, my weak mind as a woman, I am simply not fit for it. Speaker 12: Business is bad. Speaker 15: What do you know, what’s the matter? What’s happened? She suffers? Speaker 14: She suffers. She has to be at the travel agency alone all day Well, her kids are all alone at home. Speaker 14: That’s Speaker 12: [00:03:00] right. Speaker 15: So, Take the kids with you to work. Speaker 15: You’d be with Taki . Speaker 12: That would be good. Speaker 14: That would be no good. No good. No good. No good. Because, um, When a woman has her kids around, she just can’t focus. Speaker 14: And that’s why that no work. No work. Speaker 15: . I have your answer. Yes. I will do all the work for you and you stay home all day with the kids. Speaker 11: Oh, I, I can’t believe that. Wonderful. Wonderful. Malcolm Collins: and I saw this in the comments again recently where like even- Oh Simone Collins: really? Malcolm Collins: Guys were like, “Well, women held some roles historically outside the house, but, you know, they weren’t like cobblers and they weren’t like sailors and they weren’t like, you know, stone masons.” And it’s like all of that is true. Simone Collins: Yeah. However, Malcolm Collins: the way that all of those businesses were managed where if a guy [00:04:00] was a stone mason or a cobbler or anything like that, his books and his inventory sourcing and his client sourcing generally would have been handled by the woman, but it wasn’t even just that. It was if you actually look at the statistics around female labor in history, women actually did, if you’re talking about hard labor, the labor that fed the family, right? Women actually did the majority of the work over the vast majority of human history. If you go back to let’s say hunter gatherer society, for example, because we’ve been able to study this in a great detail women produced in terms of daily caloric intake between 80 and 60% of the calories that the family ate. Simone Collins: Oh my gosh, really? Malcolm Collins: This is 90 human history. Simone Collins: Well, this, you know, this also makes sense in other things where you see sexual dimorphism. For example, women being much [00:05:00] having much higher endurance and pain tolerance versus men who are better like sprinters. Malcolm Collins: Yeah. Speaker 6: Or to word it another way, the female body and psychology at an evolutionary level are optimized for grueling labor while the male body in mind are optimized for warfare and disposability. Neither are totally optimal, but the idea that women are beautiful flowers designed to sit inside all day caring for children Far from any risk of manual labor is probably the greatest feminist psyops of all time and completely a historic. Simone Collins: . And yeah, that just, that, that really, that implies millions of years of higher workloads. Malcolm Collins: And this is actually even true. And, and we’re gonna talk about like why this is the case because note people can be like, “But those just makes no sense. I thought women, because they’re the weaker, they must do this work.” And it’s like, b***h, have you ever seen how lions make this s**t work? The male [00:06:00] lion sits around all day and the females bring in food because that’s the way human society is supposed to work. Simone Collins: Oh God. Malcolm Collins: And if you go back to the most trad iterations of human society, let’s go with the ultra orthodox Jews, okay? In ultra Orthodox Jewish society, do men work? No. Simone Collins: Oh God. Malcolm Collins: Men don’t work. Women work. Men spend all day studying. You actually see this in, Simone Collins: Studying. ... Malcolm Collins: if you go to more primitive iterations of Islamic society, I remember this- Yeah. ... Morocco and are out in the desert. Simone Collins: Okay. Malcolm Collins: And we met you know, a traditionalist Muslim- Simone Collins: Oh, yes. Yes. ... Malcolm Collins: and the men did not work. That was considered, like, very offensive, even the idea that a man would have a job, that is of course the purview of women to have jobs. And you could say, “Well, Malcolm, surely you don’t want us to be like those, those Muslims or those Jews.” And I’m like, “Well, actually, even if you go back to early European [00:07:00] society, most farming through most of human history was done by women.” People are like, “What? I thought men handled farming.” And it’s like, actually, men only moved to handle the majority of farming after one particular invention. Do you know what it was? Simone Collins: The ... Oh, what was it called? The ... I wanna say spinning Jenning because it’s just the first thing that, like, comes to mind. The plow. The plow. Oh, great. Okay. Yeah. Malcolm Collins: Okay. In regions where the plow is not used due to soil conditions and stuff like that- Simone Collins: Yeah. ... Malcolm Collins: the majority of farming is typically done by w- women. Huh. In Europe, before the introduction of the plow, which happened a thousand AD. So pretty recently the majority of farming was done by women unless you were, like, having slaves do it or something like that. But even when you were having slaves do it and you had, like, a big estate, the majority of the family’s work was still done by women because Zane managed the family’s household and finances, which we will get to. And so if you’re like, [00:08:00] wait, okay, if women were doing the majority of actual work throughout human history in terms of calorie acquisition, in terms of financial management what were men doing? What was the male role in human history? Why were women okay taking on this role that seems to be, ... Because like imagine, and, and this is why I’m saying that, like, it’s such a cut thing to not know this, is, is that you’re literally going out there when the tr
