[quote=Anonymous]I object to these behaviors and I've explained why here.

I don't treat men with hostility. That alone is the huge difference between someone like me who objects to patriarchy and those who participate in it and perpetuate in it.

If someone decides it's a bad use of time to try to find a needle in a haystack - a truly feminist, enlightened man, why should that be so quickly brushed aside as due to inexperience/youth/immaturity,  lack of options or ugliness, or my own entitlement (what does that even mean? I am obligated to be open to men?)???

What if after years of experience in this culture -- in the supposed best, most sophisticated parts of this culture -- I've concluded that it is a bad bet to waste my time in that way?

Criticizing patriarchy does not entail "hatred" of all guys, or an assumption that they are all equally the same. It is a very critical assessment of culture and the very common behaviors it has produced. And that assessment has led me to realize it is not worth the time it would take to find that enlightened male. [/quote]
