    The reason women “fall into” shit like astrology and witch stuff is because it’s marketed to them, not because of some sexist bs reasons. Well I guess the marketing is sexist

      I think there’s a bit more to it than that. I think that in a situation where you have less relative power you are more likely to seek power in mystical stuff like prayer or spiritual beliefs or magic because the avenues available to women are more limited.
