Chosen communes might be better than families
I genuinely think communes like living with people you choose, sharing responsibilities etc can be better than traditional families, tho I have never lived in a commune myself.
From what I’ve seen around me, traditional families are sources of trauma, control, and emotional baggage.
I’ve seen Members end up doing literally most of the household chores and caregiving work as if it’s their *duty*, even when they don’t want to. People are treated as inferior, have little or no property rights after marriage, and are often forced to stay with someone they no longer love. Leaving or separating can become a nightmare due to legal issues, societal and family pressure, and the complications of managing children.
On the other hand, Commune could allow people to live more freely, share responsibilities equally, and step away from harmful dynamics without the stigma or legal barriers.
