This is solely down to the culture again, there are many more accepting cultures out there (if you take social anthropolgy you may learn of them) that have many more genders than we do (e.g the Bulgis of indonesia have 5). If women are lesbians, that's okay, but if men are gay, that's unacceptable. A woman dressing like a man does not necessarily make a woman more manly, as there is no social stigma or pressure attached to it.ĥ. If a man dresses like the women it reduces his perceived masculinity, which is 'not good'. Being masculine involves not wearing certain things etc etc. males are taught from a very young age what they are supposed to be, and that is masculine. This is highly cultural to begin with, but presuming we're discussing western culture it is all to do with identity. Why is it okay for women to dress like men? In fact male abuse victims get nowhere near the support and success rate as women do.
Have you looked at the actual statistics? Male abusers are a stereotype, the media chooses, as do many people, to misrepresent or ignore facts. If it were truly a patriarchy the system would serve men above women in as may instances as possible. Take the saying that "Behind every great man is a woman" Just because they do not have public power does not mean they are not *in* power, just take a look at the legislation regarding familial rights, and how things are often split unfairly in divorce (personally I care more about fair sharing of the children). To say that women have no power however is unwise. Consider this Also consider the after-care for rape victims, male rape victims whilst there are 'houses' for them to go to, do not receive any help from the government, not do the houses receive government funding like the female rape homes.īecause they a) were not better than their competition or b) they didn't want to put in the effort. The power of the accusation of rape is incredibly strong in our society today, which is why it is often used for blackmail etc. If you are talking about women being raped you haven't done much research, even just keeping up to date with the news would show you that something as unsupported as the *claim* that a man is a rapist can severely hinder his social success, if not his financial one too. explain as to how rape is ignored, overlooked, etc. And oftentimes, in cases of rape, it gets wavered off as consented sex despite the victim claiming in honest truths that it was not, because "everyone likes men and it was the heat of the moment, she wanted it." TLDR, you're wrong.Ĩ years You are somewhat misinformed.
However, men are given so much privilege that it's not even associated with them, the responsibility. Pregnancy can be avoided in some cases, but what if you can't take birth control? What if your religion prohibits contraception? What if you can't afford these things? It's left to the man (I would say partner but seeing as how only people with penises can leave semen it's easier to say "men") to be responsible and provide contraception. If women are lesbians, that's okay, but if men are gay, that's unacceptable, because men need to retain their "masculinity" which is essentially control and power, and since homosexuality in men is stereotyped as feminine, it's a "shame." Men are dominant in this society and if you try to argue that you're blatantly wrong. Explain why so few people in power are women, explain why women are more often abused, explain why it's okay for women to be more like men but not men more like women. If they weren't, explain as to how rape is ignored, overlooked, etc. Women are treated as second class citizens.
