There maybe different strains of feminism.
Almost all feminist social analysis is atleast in part based on patriarchy theory. Including the Duluth's model.
But again, which patriarchy theory? Define the one you refer to
Men exercising control over women due to their gender privilege... Which is the basis of Ellen pence's formulation of Duluth's model
That is very rarely used as a definition of Patriarchy Theory.
There are far more common uses
It's the most widely used in feminist theory.
Maybe laymans use it less
It is not the most widely used.
Then why is Duluth's model based on it
Do feminists believe in patriarchy theory, yes or no
I dunno. The duluth model is not the be all and end all of feminist theory, despite what so many think
Check the wiki. You'll find the instances of the uses of patriarchy theory
Which wiki?
It's a feminist formulation
Any wiki
How about Geek Feminism's wiki?
"the system of gender-based hierarchy in society which assigns most power to men, and assigns higher value to men, maleness, and "masculine traits"."
Fits pretty well with most gender theories
(note how men's issues is not included in the higher value list)
This definition is reductionist as the rest
"most"
Male power occurred due to a variety of reasons
One being, they were liable to fight, protect and die for the tribe
Ding ding ding
That's the price of power
Aye, it is
>Ding ding ding
Is that the menslib way or the chapo way
chapo?
And no, it has nothing to do with any affiliation to any group
Feminism is defined as the 'advocacy for women's rights on the basis of equality'
This in itself assumes that equality will be attained if *women are raised to men*.
The word feminism in itself assumes that men have no problems.
That is the worst interpretation I have ever seen \
it doesn't assume anything like that
Equality will not be attained if you just advocate for women's rights
It's the dictionary definition of feminism
And feminism has no monopoly over the narrative
That's why mrm is here
Feminism started off as working at one issue, and has grown from there.
great, the MRM is here, to work ALONGSIDE feminism
that would be a help
But no, the two movements clash against each other non-stop
