you see several videos talking about how men suffer and struggle too. men's mental health month, the education system, how they're treated in society, and no one denies it because it's true. men are told to toughen up and be strong. the education system caters towards the learning experience of women. these are all things that are true and no one denies.

but when women talk about how deeply woven sexism is in our society, how sayings and double standards affect the mental health of young girls, it always becomes "to be fair..."

we can't focus on double standards when we can't even admit that there's a problem with the public's reaction whenever we focus on women. we can't make halfway progress. "gender wars" have become another way to become male centered.

in our efforts "to be fair..." we've completely disregarded women.

and i'm getting deja vu.
