How many of those men also go around saying that women shouldn't vote? How many of those men have defended male politicians who have raped, harmed, and endangered women in the past? How many of those men have elected and supported such rapists? How many of those men want to force Christianity and everything that it entails onto women in their country? How many of those men police women's clothing? How many of those men want to restablish patriarchal gender roles and strip women of financial independence? How many of those men want to reduce women to incubators and take away their fundamental bodily autonomy? How many of those men want to reduce women's representation? How many of those men degrade feminists and want women to be docile, weak, and voiceless? How many of those men want to reduce women into homemakers, cooks, and mothers, in the name of traditionalism and faith? How many of those men use white supremacy and racism to force certain roles and stereotypes onto women? How many of these men have stayed silent when their own governments have funded and directly caused violence against women in the global South in conflict zones? Does the activism of a white man disappear when a palestinian child gets raped by Israeli terrorists? Does the activism of a white man disappear when soldiers from his country's army sexually assault women from countries they have invaded?
