Men are hurt by their own dedication to toxic, patriarchal masculinity by allowing themselves to hurt others.

Content: It’s human nature for people to not like change. We like to be comfortable in whatever situation we find ourselves in, and we don’t like it when something comes along and puts us out of that comfort zone. We will find a way to stay comfortable, often at any and all costs. Unfortunately, this is exactly what patriarchy does for men. It enables men to remain comfortable in their privileges, in their dominance, in their reverence, while never having to question the issues women and nonbinary people have to deal with in relation to their comfort. For men, it’s easier to find partners who will do all of the things that men “aren’t supposed to do.” Although times have changed, many men still feel as though they are meant to be the main moneymakers in their household, while their partners should be the ones staying home, making them dinner, doing their laundry, taking care of their children, etc. Feminism seeks to get rid of those archaic notions of what it means to be a “real man” or a “real woman.” Feminists would rather dismantle those norms and create a society that doesn’t let gender or whatever body parts you have dictate how people should or shouldn’t act. What men don’t realize is that allowing themselves to fall into the trap of patriarchal masculinity is not only hurting the people they wish to be involved with in life, it’s hurting themselves by feeling as though they can’t truly explore themselves and understand that there’s more to life than keeping up with the status quo of gender.
