My son is on the autism spectrum, so I do have some understanding and sympathy about being non-nuerotypical. My real position is that patriarchy is a dominance-based hierarchy that is harmful to us all. Most of the time I advocate for a more egalitarian and partnership-based culture more generally, but from time to time I do speak about particular elements of how a patriarchal dominance hierarchy harms women in particular, since those are things that I have actually experienced. This doesn't mean that I don't recognize and sometimes discuss the ways that it harms men, but that's also not my main focus.

Anyone who is involved with a so-called Men's Rights group is directing their anger towards the wrong place. It should be directed at the dominance hieararchy that is patriarchy (which is about more than just a male/female dynamic) and all the ways that this demands things of them and takes away their freedom and individuality. Instead, they just direct their anger towards women, which is a mistake.

Here's one of my stories that you might find interesting.

Thanks for reaching out and wishing you all the best.
