[olliecoded]

also dont love the implication in the barbie movie that men create (??) patriarchy because they are insecure, rather than addressing the fact that patriarchy is what MAKES men insecure

#barbie #i just think its worth discussing how patriarchy as a social system impacts every part of everyones life including young men #and patriarchy itself is what often leads to radicalization due to an implementation of rigid social rules that boys cant live up to #and feel they need to strive aggressively hard to reach #like. i guess its easier to act like individual men can just. CAUSE the patriarchy by asking for beer #but its ... weird? i guess? to act like men can reinforce patriarchy in any meaningful way?? #even when men act misogynistically they are only behaving in ways in accordance WITH patriarchy #they arent like. causing it lol. or creating it. its weird #ESPECIALLY when one of the main perpetrators of ''kendom'' in the movie is a man of color ... #like yassss have an asian man literally create patriarchy which then negatively affects ur primarily white female leads. wow. lib queen
