After reading this article, I randomly wondered why whenever gender is discussed, the discussion is solely pertaining to women or those of the female gender, like, when race is discussed, it’s usually black vs white/white oppressing black (in America). I understand that a man’s or the male gender is of the “popular sect” and never threatened, however, I think it is important that in order to solve an issue you would have to begin with the origin of the issue first. But yes…that was my random spill.
The author of the article discussed that it is vital to not only argue about a woman’s status, or her lack thereof, but to recognize the evolution and forever changing nature of male dominance and female oppression and understand ways systems of society mold and construct how the world views gender.
