40. Hating a culture of patriarchy
Does not mean you hate men.You hate the culture created by men and tolerated by men and excused by men.

And if men feel their identities tied up in the privliges of patriarchy than they will be threatened by anyone who hates the culture of patriarchy,because it undermines what they think makes them entitled .

If you go back in this thread,you will notice I was in support of ThomCat.. a male. A male with the courage and GUTS to stand against the culture of patriarchy,as a man be a feminist, a RADICAL feminist.I admire Thomcat I even told him I was his fan..If that is hating all men you are ignorant.


Why doesn’t anyone give men loads of unasked for advice? And why shouldn’t male personal lives be made to serve a greater feminist good? "OK guys, you need to help fix inequalities in society, so you should stay home for five years after your children are born." Can you see that article getting lots of hits? If anyone glanced at it, he or she would assume it was a joke and move on.
