"Mocking masculinity isn't mean, it's purposeful (and fun!)"

Article here. Excerpt:

'Yes, the personal is political, but the ongoing criticisms of male behaviour do not equate to personalized "misandry" any more than criticisms of corporate power equate to an irrational hatred of white men who just happen to be very, very rich at the expense of pretty much everyone else.

Beyond that, mocking men and men's socialized behaviour is something that actually makes having to live with the everyday violence and supremacy of men tolerable. We joke so that we don't lose our shit every time we have to balance half a butt cheek on a seat because otherwise we'll be sitting in some dude's lap on the bus.

It seems Young's greatest fear is not, in fact, that "equality" won't be achieved because women are just so mean to the group of people who have subjected them to violence and oppression for centuries now, but that, in fact, the righteousness of manhood might dissolve. Trying to pressure feminists into softening their response to masculinity will always prove to be fruitless because, as feminists, we have nothing to prove to men -- this movement is not for them.'
