True liberation from the restrictions
of gender would mean that all possible options would be
open and equally acceptable for both sexes. Then a
person's individual human qualities rather than his or her
biological sex, would be the primary measure of that
person's worth and achievement.
As for Karl Marx? Karl Marx's views, like those of
anyone else, were deeply influenced by the social environment.
Marx wrote in England at a time when a large and impoverished
working class laboured for a handful of wealthy capitalists
who owned the factories and other means of production. Marx
assumed that this situation would inevitably lead to revolution.
But Marx did not forsee many of the changes that later occurred
in industrial societies, such as the growth of a large middle
class. No revolution has ever occurred in an advanced
industrial society.
