Scrap the idea of women as possessions you mean? Maybe it would work. But you could also argue that it'll have the reverse effect, like over here. Women are not treated as possessions (for the most part) in Britain any more, so thirteen-year-old girls are free to fuck whoever they want without contraception, get pregnant, and contribute to the rising teenage pregnancy rate. Not to mention the spiralling number of single-parent families. That's in very simple, not-capable-of-much-real-thought terms, but I think it explains what I mean.
Of course, I'm not saying that women should be treated as objects. But if you don't want nine billion people on the planet, absolute liberty isn't the solution.
