    Patriarchy

    e: Some dudes apparently can’t take accountability and they gotta downvote me to prove their point

      I just want you to know that I’m downvoting you because the way you express your opinion is facile and simplistic, and honestly helps further the division you purport to critique. Not because I necessarily disagree with the general sentiment you believe you’re trying to convey.

      One word answers to problems are easy, but they rarely accurate enough to actually help solve the issue and generally are used to push people to extreme opinions. It’s much less effort to just spout a catchphrase to push people towards your own personal goal rather than get into an actually beneficial discussion about the ins and outs of how life actually works and how to solve real world problems.

      Women put pressure on other women too. Girls can be bullies in school.

      I’m not downvoting you, but I am disputing the assertion that only men uphold unfair standards.

      Wait I’m confused, if patriarchy is still a thing then why are all women in media strong independent “need no man” girl bosses now? Somebody please explain.
