re: Article perfectly illustrates how masculine traits are being attacked

My son and his GF were up visiting for christmas and we sat down for dinner. I love cooking and cooked the whole meal. I undercooked some potatoes and was offering apologies when I said "I'm obviously not a woman with how poorly I multitask". The GF immediately looks at me and says "that was a really sexist thing to say!".

I couldn't believe it. I told her it's been proven, scientifically, that women are better multitaskers. She says, "that's not true; we all have the same brains.".

It wasn't even worth debating with her...some of these folks you can't get through to.

And here’s what cisgender men such as myself need to consider: if patriarchy is fundamentally violent and oppressive, then we have a responsibility to consider the ways that we might be complicit in that violence – simply by living out the patterns of how we were taught to be men.
