Hey FYI killing or assaulting or raping a woman due to misogyny is a hate crime. It is as much of a hate crime as killing or assaulting or raping any other marginalized group due to bigotry and I’d appreciate if we stopped downplaying misogyny and misogynistic violence when literally every single woman I have met has at some point been a victim of misogynistic hate crime. No, men are not “also oppressed by the patriarchy”, if I see one more person make that claim I’m going to kill them. What the hell do you guys even think the patriarchy is. like. Ok. The patriarchy isn’t a gender norm system, that’s it’s own issue that tends to form under the patriarchy. The patriarchy is a system designed to serve men and oppress women, it’s designed so that men are able to obtain power but women aren’t. That’s literally all it is.

#misogyny #hate crime mention #rape mention #murder mention #Like do you seriously think men being told not to cry is equivalent to misogyny #Men being allowed to be more gnc and cry and such Would Not combat the patriarchy it would combat gender norms #Trans acceptance doesn’t combat the patriarchy because trans women are still getting DISPROPORTIONATELY MURDERED #And trans men are finding that after transition they’re gaining privilege and access to things they never thought they could have #Including basic human respect and safety #Meanwhile trans women are losing these things. Losing opportunities privilege safety respect.#THAT IS THE PATRIARCHY. MEN DO NOT SUFFER UNDER IT.#The further away a man is from being a man the less privilege he gets #thats where homophobia comes from #And currently gender norms dictate that an effeminate man or a gay man is less of a man which makes him worthy of discrimination and hate #That’s what people mean when they say “men are oppressed under the patriarchy” but the thing is if gender norms changed and #Gay men became “part of the norm” the patriarchy wouldn’t be any less of an issue #It wouldn’t even shake it.#If transphobia stopped being an issue and trans people became “part of the norm” trans women would still suffer #And due to the systemic sexism that comes with the patriarchy so would trans men #Patriarchy #im so tired of people using that as a buzzword
