The other day, I was watching an interview excerpt from UKDK on YouTube. The subject of the interview was a young Italian guy in England, who earned his living making beds in a hotel. He had left his home country due to conscription. In England, his individualism appeared to be limited to peroxide hair and a leather jacket. If he'd been a girl, it is doubtful whether he would have had to face that catch twenty-two.
Sexism is a two way street. If girls are made to seem weak, stupid or unworthy, then men instinctually distance themselves from their female counterparts. Sensitivity and other typically feminine qualities lose their place in humanity, because men have been imprinted with the idea that girly equals devolution. So the suppression of the feminine is ultimately as oppressive to men as it is to women.
