You can't just pretend it's not there because you don't like rap music.
Male privilege is a universal thing in all societies across the world however. Yes, of course gender intersects with economic class, race and so on, and it becomes incredibly complex to pick apart and see the nuances (which is what feminist studies of intersectionality do). But there is no society where women overall are not subordinate to men in terms of political power as a sex class, which affects every part of our culture and lives , public and private. As far as I know, pretty much every society in the world is patriarchal. The world is run by men.
There's a wealth of evidence of all kinds pointing to systemic racism throughout all branches of society.
Not quite true. There are and have been matriarchal societies. Engels' 'The Origin of Private Property, Family and the State' is a great take on how matriarchal relations were usurped and erased by law and private property..
Thing is though, how are we defining a 'matriarchy'?
Would that involve men being the subordinate sex class to women...?
Could just as well turn that around and ask how you're defining 'patriarchy'. You said every society on earth is patriarchal. Now if Yemen is patriarchal, but Iceland is also patriarchal, then I have to wonder what a non-patriarchal society would look like, in your view.
That doesn't mean your life can't be shit if you're white, or that white people (or men) don't deserve to have their suffering acknowledged and ameliorated. White suffering and male suffering is not worth less than any other variety of suffering which is the point at which my views converge with teas.
Dont believe i ever said any of this.
You appear to be grasping at straws now mr tea.
Question for you, Benny: What effect dominates, in your view: sex, class, race, something else...?
It was a genuine question. Feel free to answer to it.
And where exactly did I attribute that position to you Ben?
