6. Do women NOT have influence in the creation of culture?
Mon May 27, 2013, 10:06 AM

Do you understand that we experience the world as individuals?

You can talk about an abstract concept like the Patriarchy, but on an individual level, the reality that men face, the violence and other issues...these are some of the things that we here in this group are talking about when we talk of "Men's Issues".

Does your observation that men are the perpetrators do anything to lessen or diminish the fact that men face this violence and that is an issue that we, as male individuals, must deal with?

If you ARE capable of understanding that, perhaps you could tell me how you think your observation helps?

Furthermore, over half of the population are women. Just how exactly do you feel that women are NOT therefore responsible for the creation of the culture of the police force, for example, that victimizes men in this way?
