The patriarchy is like the Berlin Wall; you didn’t really think it would ever come down and then it’s crumbling before your eyes.

The patriarchy died long ago. New feminists are just bleating with no cause.

The patriarchy cannot be replaced by another matriarchy, the gender based eras have had their day. The philoarchy is the only way that The Human, being beings, can possibly make Itself known. #stuckaddiction #philoarchy

Please define patriarchy. How do you know when it comes down?

The patriarchy where men are still only drafted, dominate the suicide stats, workplace deaths due to conditions, lose custody disproportionately, face harsher criminal punishment, own 99.8% of war deaths, aren’t represented in colleges equally, have 1 battered men’s shelter

..and women have thousands, young men are treated as disposable, where men don’t live as long but have to draw social security at the same age, and don’t be a man of color bc it gets a lot worse.

And too bad for our boys. They grow up in homes where dad is in jail disproportionately. Often this happens at the hands of custody courts. You know, pro-women movements are BIG money. Breast cancer awareness vs prostate cancer for example. Just another complex.

What kind of material conditions can overthrow paternity? The Berlin wall can't be pushed down at any time.
