[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know we like to blame men, and that's definitely a big part of it, but I think we need to look at the issue other women bring to it as well. This forum is a good example to see how women play a part in contributing to the patriarchy. Shaming women for working, shaming women for putting themselves first, shaming women for staying at home, shame, shame, shame. Im real life, I've dealt with female managers trying to tear me down because the big boss has liked my ideas.  I've seen people talk shit about a female boss for no reason other than she was a powerful female.

So yes, men play a huge role. But ignoring how we contribute to it too will never get the issue solved. [/quote]

All of this. The patriarchy persists because [b]internalized misogyny [/b]is everywhere and there are [b]insufficient social supports[/b] for women with professional ambition who'd also like to be good, engaged mothers.[/quote]

Yes and yes.[/quote]
