"Women and children first" and pressure on men to be protectors still exists today. Gender norms can hurt both women and men. The common idea that only men have "privilege" is wrong and dangerous.

do you think that phrase/mindset has helped us continue as a species, coming from prehistoric times when keeping women and children alive was priority to keep humanity from going extinct? i worry about derailing certain things that may be backbone to humanity / society

Yes, I think this was likely useful in our past, but we can probably do without it in a world with 7 billion people (or at least acknowledge that no gender is uniquely "privileged" over another)

well said James. One must ignore a lot to not see that some women are immensely privileged and many white straight males are born into enduring lack of opportunity. Some think the 'right' benefit when the 'left' ignore that. I agree.

If only there were some sociological framework that sought to combat these gender-distributed archetypes & that has the historical clout in defeating systemic inequality among men & women. If only this framework weren't vilified by clueless egotistical dirtbags like James Damore

You're right, this injustice cannot stand. It's about time for Republican politicians to start sexually assaulting men too!
