[quote BrumBoo]@RootyT00t, an individual man isn't bad. Just like an individual white person isn't bad. As a general group in society though? Come on, you know exactly what I mean and the position of privilege certain 'labels' bring. BLM was about telling everyone that for a moment in time at least, they needed to shut up and listen to the black community, that even in this world where a Liberalwhiye person will not think themselves racist there was still a huge gap in how black and white people are treated and everyone needs to hear it.
It's the same with women and men. The latter still take opportunity away from women at any given moment. In jobs where a man will be chosen over a young woman, because she might need a few months off very couple of years to have children, in medicine where male doctors won't take 'women's issues' seriously, leaving us suffering or even dying from treatable conditions, where we live in a society where a woman who gets raped and murder walking home alone is blamed for her attack as for whatever reason 'she should have known better than to be alone'. So yes, men sometimes suffer from the shit side of society, but more often than not as a group they are the ones perpetuating the shitness and most of the the time it's directed at women. So no, I really couldn't give a shit what RuPaul thinks what toxic masculinity is, as a man whilst he refuses to acknowledge how referring to himself as a woman is part of the bigger problem of misogyny, and therefore part of the anti-women issue as a whole.
As I said previously, it's not always about the big issues. Misogyny needs to be called out anywhere and everywhere it's seen, until people understand that just a bit of sexism in the name of entertainment is not ok.[/quote]
I don't disagree.
But no, I cannot agree that men as a whole think women are lesser.
They don't make the rules.
They can't help being born male.
