Data Is Beautiful

I agree with a lot of what you say.

My view is that to abolish it, we need to better and more fully understand the patriarchy and its effects on everyone.

First and foremost we must come to see how the unprivileged are damaged. But we can't stop there.

The question about men isn't about whether men are or aren't the problem (because it isn't that simple). Rather, it is in what ways men are affected positively and negatively by the patriarchy and how they do or don't enforce and perpetuate the patriarchy and affect women and other groups, unwittingly or otherwise.

Since we are all steeped in this culture, that same analysis has to be done for everyone or we will never make meaningful progress.

As we continue to understand and work on issues women face, we can and must at the same time look at the whole picture.
