The patriarchy harms all genders. Blaming people who are suffering helps no one. There are plenty of lonely folks who had no hand in building this system.

    The meme says I built the system. I didn't. I had absolutely nothing to do with building it. As you said, that was done long ago, by other people.

    As for the 2nd part...I have no idea what that even means. I get asked all the time what my gender is, when I create a new account somewhere...but obviously not every time. Are you saying that every time I'm not asked...you still are?

    While I agree in that patriarchy should be ended I'd like to ask that users kindly refrain from misandry as fearmongering generates a positive feedback loop for the far right extreemists to exploit and especially in this case the cringe manosphere.
