I see the argument + ultimate point being made in your post. I agree that women do owe it to ourselves plus the world at large to take responsibility for how we respond + react to the patriartic ideology + social structures + psychology of the modern glorified masculinity. This is because many of us still are not familiar with the true meanings of power, many women “feminists” unknowingly compare themselves to men because of these structures + institutionalized thought , hence becoming offended at the boyish things men do perceiving it as a literal threat to who they are.

We’re not helping women by getting mad at men, we help everyone by seeing the entire picture & accepting responsibility as a woman. We are emotional powerhouses of energy. Know your power, use it wisely.
