The older I get the more I see the depth and dimensions of subordination faced by my family and friends who just so happen to not have a penis.
This stinks in monumental fashion. I feel horrible that I have not been working against this for most of my life. I am sorry that my level of awareness has so gradually unfolded.
It seems to me that our cultural traditions and the powerful forces unleashed by the consumer culture we enjoy and suffer...encourage us all to see women as objects and that insight strikes me as what we need to emphasize because it is at the root of subordination, discrimination, harassment and violence.
