Re: Complaining about the misogyny of white men

(Anonymous) 2013-11-16 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Just because there's more white male allies doesn't necessarily mean that's statistically significant considering most of them are from countries where the general population is largely white. If you have a group of one hundred men and only four of them are feminist allies and only one of those four is a black man you can't say if white men are more likely to be a feminist ally without accounting for the proportion of black men in the group as a whole. If he's the only black man then you could draw the conclusion that black men are 100 times more likely than a white man to be feminist, and vice versa if every non-feminist ally man other than him is black.

Then when there's a man in power creating policies or media that perpetuates misogyny on a large scale to a wide demographic of people that man is probably white. Not to mention there is still a good deal of racism within the feminist movement and a lot of their efforts is focused on white communities and culture.

"Then when there's a man in power creating policies or media that perpetuates misogyny on a large scale to a wide demographic of people that man is probably white."

Have you HEARD of any other cultures than the US? Because pretty sure there are HELLA places in the world where women are treated like shite that mostly or only consist of NON WHITE people. It's just not considered acceptable to talk about it, because apparently it is LITERALLY HATEFUL RACISM to mention that certain Middle Eastern cultures consider it acceptable to murder rape victims for "fornication," or that certain African cultures consider it acceptable to cut women's genitals so that sex will hurt like hell just because they don't want them to enjoy sex (because if women enjoy sex, they'll obviously cheat on the husbands they were handed over to by their parents with no say in the matter.)
