"Male privilege" is actually just UTILITARIAN SEXISM (you know like women have benevolent sexism) - misandry-archy theory and patriarchy theory.

EDIT: Yes it misandry-archy theory, it is specifically NOT supposed to be matriarchy theory that wouldnt work.

I have posted a few times about how patriarchy theory (as used by modern feminism since the creation of it in 1970 by Kate Millet - an absolute mad feminist according to her own sister and conspiracy theorist - to be a nebolous catch all for all complex phenomena so we dont have to actually use our brain and work problems through) is like flat earth theory (which includes the global cover up to hide the fact that the earth is flat by NASA etc). Flat earth theory and the theory that there is a global conspiracy to cover this up has amazing comebacks for why e.g. no one has found the edge of the earth etc. why private companies who have sent satellites have seen the earth being round. Feminism has similar reasons for why patirchcy is true despite things such as women live longer, or we have laws like men retire at 65 and women at 60 and so on. Its not like there aren't the odd useful things in patraichy theory or slivers of truth, its just its overall a conspiracy theory that is bullshit. You can't apply it to all situations, or really hardly any.

Anyway, what better way to show how stupid grand narratives are then to create a bulshit false one, but one that makes sense. I am self identifying as a gender studies professor. Respect my pronouns. Lets go:

To highlight how stupid such a catch all idea to explain all multi-varied complex phenomena is lets explain these same things feminism says patriarchy caused, and say misandry-archy caused it instead.... the ease at which you can do this shows how stupid and simplistic patarichy theory was in the first place.

Misadnry-archy theory explains our entire society. In misadnry-archy theory society is shaped by the exploitation of men. Men are viewed as utilitarian success objects, whose only value is in their work and what they can do, not who they are....Both men and women enforce this. This is due to a hatred of men (misandry) which views men only for their utility, whereas women are viewed as innately having value (this is demonstrated in experiments and of course real life and in policy where women are saved over men). Men are viewed only as utilitarian objects which must be exploited to maximise the benefit for society. This is done to privilege women (misdnry-archy allows to live easier comfortable lives, women higher life expectancy, they spend all the money [90% of consumer spending directly comes from or is controlled by women] better health, work less hours, only 6% of work deaths are female, women are far less likely to work outside, in extreme weather, at heights, at risk etc. men die in their hundreds of million in wars while women are exempt from service, forced male conscription is prevenaltn all over western developed nations but spares women). Although remember, misandry-archy actually harms women! Women are paid less, less represented as CEOs and presidents. This is misandry-archy back firing on women.

Men are oppressed under this system. Any benefits e.g. men in positions of power is actually just utilitarian sexism. I.e. men are given positions of power as under misandry-archy society exploits men for all their utility. They are just success objects. This actually harms men.

Evidence for utilitarian sexism includes the fact that men live 4 years (UK) to 12 (Russia) years less than women, 94% of work deaths, higher murder, suicide, rates, and so on.

Under misandry-archy all women are privileged, by exploiting mens labour. Of course individual women may be harmed e.g. women may not enter leadership roles and so on. This is misadnry-archy back firing on women. All men are oppressed under misandry-archy.... yes it is true individual men may appear have some benefits e.g. leadership roles, however this is utilitarian sexism viewing men as success objects, only useful for their benefit to society.

To help women we must end misadnry-archy. Fighting Misandry archy is for everyone

Misandry-archy theory helps women to in solving womens issues as all womens issues are really just misandry-archy. You know feminist, like how everything is patriarchy and mens issues are really just seism against women? Women. to fight your issues, become anti- misandry-archists

Rape:

Do you know why women are raped? rape is really misandry-archy. Men are viewed only as sexual beings who can't control themselves. To solve rape, we need to value male sexuality and end this horrible societal wide misandry. Especially to men of colour. MRA is intersectional. MRA wants to see a world free from sexual violence. Fight misandry-archy

For example, slut-shaming:

Slut-shaming happens to women because men’s sexuality is seen as dirty and demeaning to them. Men’s rights activists are very much against that. If we were all MRAs slut shaming would not exist.

Child-care:

The reason we expect women to care for children is that we don’t trust men doing it. It’s really just misandry working against women. This is why society needs to end misandry-archy

The earnings gap:

Women make less money than men because we of misandry-archy. Society has a deep hatred for men and doesn’t see men as having worth outside of providing money to others, and so we encourage men to work longer hours, take longer commutes, set aside their passions, etc.

Objectification:

Women are only treated as sex objects because their sexuality is seen as so valuable and desirable. It’s an advantage for women (disadvantage for men) Its a case of Misandrdy-archy sometimes backfireing and affecting women too. It’s like a rockstar who’s so famous and loved for their music that they have a hard time getting people to pay attention to their other endeavours, like visual art.

Covering-up in very religious societies:

Women are expected to cover up in places of Saudi Arabia because of the idea that men don’t have any self-control. Fix the misandry and it’ll help women. Misandry-archy hurts women too

What a bull shit theory right? Patrichy? Oh I mean misandryarhy theory. Although I think utilitarian sexism has some use.

Next step in misandry-archy I create thousands of "gender studies" programmes and teach this in the curriculum to young impressionable men and women, who swallow up this raw shit (sound familiar? Im sure feminist have never done this right? Right Kate Millet? Sally Miller Gearhart, Dworkins?). I go on bra burning marches and post 1,000,000 articles covering this bullshit in guardian and other "respectable" sources to slowly drip feed society in buying this shit. Hmmm maybe I create a UN women department to teach this shit and spread it globally? Hmm maybe I infiltrate WEF, WHO etc with thousands of people from my gender studies course.

Hmm maybe by gender studies graduates can go into journalism, blogging, activism, law, politics, NGOs, charities and spread this bullshit patraichy erm sorry misadnry-archy theory all throughout the world. Hey maybe we can make this taught in English Literature, sociology, history, you know separate disciplines.... now infaltired by feminist patriarchy, or sorry I mean misandry-archy theory.
