The Modern Woman’s Guide to Life, and to Defeating The Patriarchy

The below is an incomplete list. Feel free to suggest points I may have missed.

Home

· Be cautious of helping around the house. That can be seen as bowing to The Patriarchy. When your spouse asks for help, make sure to consider his request in the context of The Patriarchy. You should be declining his requests for help often. If he becomes despondent, and/or ceases asking for help, that’s a sign that you are succeeding over The Patriarchy.

· You may feel an innate urge towards leaving Corporate America, and staying home to raise you children. Remember, this is an instinct borne of thousands of years of evolution. It must be suppressed. It is much more important to rise in Corporate America, and outsource child raising to caretakers and other lesser individuals.

Career

· As society has advanced and shed its old ways, people have come to realize the value of Diversity, particularly in management roles. Contrary to olden times, when hiring was done based on merit, you should plan to have a leg-up on getting hired. Also, expect quick movement up to management ranks.

· When in management, remember that You are the one who is In Charge. Do not solicit advise from more experienced peers, and certainly don’t solicit advise from your direct reports. Doing so would be seen as a sign of weakness. Rather, direct people what needs to be done. Anyone who pushes back is likely a member of The Patriarchy.

Society

· Every male-owned small business is looking to cheat you. Do not believe anything from your mechanic, home contractor, or anyone else. You know what is best, regardless of your experience in any of these fields. Once you make your demands known, you may find some of these businesses are hesitant to work with you. Don’t worry, that’s just a sign of their membership in The Patriarchy.

· It’s important to have a constant focus on Environmental issues, particularly Global Warming. Do not question the underlying motives of the existing narrative. Also, don’t worry about your own personal actions, as they can never make a difference. It’s not important for you to make any changes in your daily life, rather simply remember to repeat and support the existing narrative.

· It’s equally important to have a constant focus on Social Justice issues. Again, do not question any underlying motives of the existing narrative. Particularly the possibility of Social Justice Issues being used as a distraction from growing wealth inequality, and the relentless rise of a corporate oligarchy. Remember, the United States is the most racist, cop killing-est, Patriarchal country on the face of the earth. Don’t pay any attention to anyone who says otherwise, particularly those who are using so-called “Data.”
