Comment on Why do women in golf wear those short/skirt things while the men wear pants?
isyasad@lemmy.world 1 day agoI feel like it’s most useful to view patriarchy as something that does exist and does generally give men more power, but that doesn’t mean it actually benefits men or even empowers men in every domain. It is to the detriment of all people, male and female, that the distribution of power is weighted towards one sex.
And since people of whatever sex/gender can be harmed by the patriarchy, there is of course no reason to “blame” it on men. Or really, almost anyone.
