Hungarian government wants women barefoot and pregnant

The number of "WTF" moments in this article is too many to excerpt:

Hungarians warning education becoming 'too feminine'- report

The authors warned that an increase in female graduates could make women less likely to marry and have children.
...
In 2019 he announced that women with four children would be exempt from paying income tax for life.
...
The report found that "feminine traits" such as emotional and social maturity were favoured in Hungary's education system, which meant that sexual equality would be "considerably weakened".

The researchers warned that Hungary's economy could be put at risk if "masculine traits" were undervalued, which they listed as technical skills, risk-taking and entrepreneurship.

He acknowledges women are more emotionally mature than men. So, rather than being overly emotional or "hysterical" when we are finally pushed to our limits, that's just evidence of our advanced ability to manage our anger and frustration until pressed to express it. And men's emotional outbursts and attempts at control of other people are childish.

So glad even the flaming sexists of the Hungarian government can figure this out.
