This is a board for Parents. Sure when this first came into our school I took heart from congressional testimony offered by lesbian intellectuals and activists. That was great. But it is not enough, and the question why is a very interesting one, if you are a former liberal who was hoping to find help there.

Here's my take:
We don't need to strategize how leftist men can stand up for women. We need to respect and empower fathers who are standing up for their children and wives, mothers, sisters and daughters. I respect the men in my family and their role as protectors and leaders. That is who is out front standing for our babies.
On college campus and in glittering urban citadel, it has been a very ME FIRST ethic. Me First doesn't work for moms. The frazzled self sacrificing women who lay it all down for their husband and children, have been objects of feminist contempt.
Also, that T is tacked on to the LGB so no you're not at the forefront of resistance. And you need to, as a group, "clean up your room".
That is why new voices are in play now. I don't think you can warn us away from them just by calling Maga.
I really hate being trolled online, and I am not trolling you. I am speaking from my life experience and observations. If you come back with name calling and vitriol you will have done exactly what I have come to expect from one speaking as you do above. I answer here for the sake of this board, which has a lot of heart and wisdom.
you are making big assumptions about the role(s) that men play in other peoples' lives.
Maybe you are truly blessed and have a loving man or men in your life who protect your interests perfectly.
A lot of people do not have such perfect men in their lives. A lot of women have learned that they need to work for their own well being & the well being of their children regardless of whether men are doing that. Or even if men are doing the contrary.
So while you are anticipating a criticism of your political affiliation, I can only say that telling women that they should defer to strong men makes huge assumptions about the quality of various people and their actual circumstances in life. God helps those who help themselves, right? Well, a lot of women have learned they need to help themselves because a lot of men are in the business of oppressing and taking advantage of.
I didn't demonstrate a political affiliation. That is your assumption. I don't have perfect relationships with men. Another assumption. But if I as a mother was hoping that the rainbow people of Inclusion Equity were going to be my village and help me raise a happy healthy and empowered daughter, I was dreadfully mistaken. What I got instead was a bid to desex all, and browbeat anyone who even questioned, much less. objected to, that agenda.
Who cares more about my daughter, a)her father, or b) the nonbinary grad student with cutoff breasts, who is telling her that she needs to share a bathroom with all the boys in the class, in order to make up for her racial sin, or c) the admin of that school who has written all the grants on DIE etc to get government funding so that she can buy a big building in a black neighborhood and make lots of money?

We'll see.

Just saying.

Anser is A. I didn't say defer. I said respect.
