- 0:14well if men are upset with their
- 0:17disposability role that's because of
- 0:20patriarchy MH um do you have comments to
- 0:24that is it really because of patriarchy
- 0:26that we go to war and that boys are
- 0:28doing sports that they're damaging their
- 0:30development of their brain and uh
- 0:32construction work and you know dangerous
- 0:34jobs um is it because of patriarchy and
- 0:37because of men that men are disposable
- 0:39let's start with the call well I think
- 0:42the first thing to do is to get an
- 0:44understanding of what patriarchy is
- 0:46which is essentially a system where
- 0:49property and title were handed down from
- 0:51father to son from generation to
- 0:54Generation Um in the literal sense that
- 0:57is patriarchy and in the more fig itive
- 1:00sense in the ideological sense
- 1:02patriarchy is a
- 1:04system that oppresses women uh and uh
- 1:09and that operates for men's benefit at
- 1:12the expense of women um the patriarchy
- 1:15were title and deed were handed down
- 1:17from father to son that existed the
- 1:20patriarchy where women were oppressed
- 1:23for the for the sake and benefit of
- 1:25oppressive males in a cultural wide
- 1:28phenomena that never happened um there
- 1:32is I think a knee-jerk from most gender
- 1:35ideologues
- 1:36to respond to every concern that happens
- 1:40to men as as though it's all patriarchy
- 1:44which is this almost
- 1:46unidentifiable mass of something out
- 1:49there that we can maybe fix one of these
- 1:51days if you'll just help us tear it down
- 1:53and and rebuild Society I don't buy that
- 1:57at all um there are certainly problems
- 2:01that men experience that evolved from
- 2:06our our survival needs as a species it
- 2:09required men to be I think throughout
- 2:12most of history at more risk than women
- 2:15who carry children uh that certainly I
- 2:19don't have any argu argument with
- 2:23but did those survival needs
- 2:27necessitate uh campaigns that identify
- 2:29all men as potential rapists is that a
- 2:32problem that stems from
- 2:35patriarchy I'm not buying that I I
- 2:38personally find that idea kind of
- 2:39offensive that uh uh you can take the
- 2:43the multitude of issues from we have
- 2:46problems right now with with drugging
- 2:48Boys in order to manage their behavior
- 2:51with drugs like rlin we have pictures uh
- 2:53are problems that extend into the the
- 2:56realm of suicide like Warren was just
- 2:58talking about we have problem problems
- 3:00with discrimination in Family Court we
- 3:02have problems with one after another
- 3:05after another I mean we can just repeat
- 3:07these and repeat these uh into infinity
- 3:10and to say that that all these problems
- 3:13are rooted in a largely mythical
- 3:16concept um to me just flies in the face
- 3:19of reality and I'm sure Warren may
- 3:22have many other things to say about this
- 3:26but I would say that if you
- 3:28want to
- 3:30understand the problem of male suicide
- 3:33start looking at why men are killing
- 3:34themselves skip all the gender politics
- 3:37skip uh all the the
- 3:39ideology and start looking at individual
- 3:42cases and doing research and data which
- 3:45is really important we need fields of
- 3:47study about males that is free of
- 3:51ideological control so we can start
- 3:53understanding these problems how they
- 3:55happen we're not going to get there by
- 3:57wrapping everything up in the blanket of
- 3:59patriarchy and saying there you go
- 4:02because then how do we how do we know
- 4:04patriarchy's been killed Hannah Rosen
- 4:06just wrote an article I think that
- 4:08patriarchy is now dead so okay all these
- 4:10problems should go away um I'm not
- 4:14buying that but with that I'll I'll pass
- 4:16to Warren good good
- 4:19response basically the world was not
- 4:22controlled by patriarchy the world was
- 4:24controlled by the need to
- 4:26survive and that need to survive has
- 4:30been common to all human beings
- 4:32throughout all of history and the
- 4:34countries and the places that where
- 4:36survival occurred people figured out
- 4:39some type of usual division of labor
- 4:41usually in the more modern days women
- 4:44raise children men raise money in the
- 4:46old days you know women um cook the
- 4:49meals and you know risk their lives at
- 4:51childbirth uh women risk men miss their
- 4:54lives in in war um to protect the
- 4:56children that women bore and so um and
- 5:00both sexes did not have neither sex had
- 5:03rights both sexes had obligations and
- 5:07responsibilities when when my my father
- 5:10used to hear me at the beginning of the
- 5:12women's movement talk about women's
- 5:14rights and then men's rights and then
- 5:16gay rights and then civil rights you go
- 5:18my goodness when are you ever going to
- 5:20learn about responsibilities you know
- 5:22what about obligations you know those
- 5:24what what about duties what about honor
- 5:26those are the things that you need to
- 5:28learn about as a as a male before you're
- 5:31you go from boy to man and so the and so
- 5:35when you look at it through the lens of
- 5:37survival you realize that neither gender
- 5:40had rights both genders had
- 5:43responsibilities both genders had
- 5:45obligations both set genders risk their
- 5:48lives in different ways both set genders
- 5:50sacrifice their lives for their children
- 5:53why did they do that probably partially
- 5:56biologically that's the only way you got
- 5:58another generation but also in when you
- 6:01talk to men and women qualitatively they
- 6:04both say exactly the same thing I'm
- 6:07making these sacrifices in the hope with
- 6:10the dream that my children will have a
- 6:13better life than I had that's the
- 6:15inspiration that's the motivation that's
- 6:18come to both sexes and when gender
- 6:21studies only looks at one part of the of
- 6:24the scale then here's what happens the
- 6:27women's movement has done wonderful
- 6:30thing and that is expanded options for
- 6:32women but let's look at that as if the
- 6:34world were a family boat for a and men
- 6:37and women were both in the same family
- 6:38boat in this family boat in the old days
- 6:42men rode from the right side raise money
- 6:45uh women learned you Row from the left
- 6:46side of the boat raise children the
- 6:49women's movement after divorce has
- 6:50occurred said wait a minute we want
- 6:52women to have the options and the
- 6:54ability to row from both sides of the
- 6:56boat raise children and raise money this
- 6:58was my opinion something to be applauded
- 7:01um but nobody said to men you need to be
- 7:05honored as much for raising children as
- 7:07for raising money we need to not only
- 7:10train you and socialize you to raise
- 7:12children effectively we need to honor
- 7:14you and respect you and we need to
- 7:16encourage our daughters to fall in love
- 7:18with you if you're raising children as
- 7:20well as raising money then we would have
- 7:23both sexes able to row from both sides
- 7:25of the boat now right now what we have
- 7:28is women able to row from both sides of
- 7:30the boat but if a man becomes unemployed
- 7:32he can't row from both sides of the boat
- 7:35so we have um so the boat gets roded on
- 7:38just one side and a boat that gets roded
- 7:41on just one side is a boat that goes in
- 7:43circles a boat that goes in circles is
- 7:46far more vulnerable to the rocks of re
- 7:48of recessions and um and and and it
- 7:51sinks so when either sex wins both sexes
- 7:56lose gender studies as of today is only
- 8:00about one sex as if that one sex were a
- 8:04victim for universities not to have
- 8:08every possible way of looking at gender
- 8:11the ma the male way the female way the
- 8:14conservative male way the conservative
- 8:16female way the liberal male way the
- 8:18liberal female way all of that has to be
- 8:20part of the gender mix gay male way gay
- 8:23female ways U transgender ways we have
- 8:27to open up and look at and not condemn
- 8:30before we even speak the the women's
- 8:34movement's gender studies programs has
- 8:37looked at w the the world through the
- 8:40spectrum of women's experience of
- 8:43powerlessness and women's experience of
- 8:46what they think is male
- 8:49power they haven't looked at the world
- 8:52from Men's experience of
- 8:55powerlessness and men's experience of
- 8:58what the power of women's beauty or
- 9:01youth is or sexuality is or sexual
- 9:04withdrawal is or emotional um ability to
- 9:08support them or not support them is and
- 9:10that's the male experience of female
- 9:13power but that's not the female
- 9:16experience of female power or
- 9:18powerlessness so you have to look at the
- 9:20world from
- 9:22multiple multiple um areas of of of
- 9:25examination you have to see the male
- 9:27experience of male powerlessness
- 9:29the male experience of female
- 9:31powerlessness and power the female
- 9:34experience of power and powerlessness
- 9:36and the female experience of male power
- 9:38and powerlessness and and then you add
- 9:41things like class and other things to
- 9:44that then you have a discussion that
- 9:46helps everybody in the University
- 9:49understand her or himself and feel heard
- 9:52but to have a discussion that is just
- 9:55from one perspective and call that a
- 10:00University that insults the very concept
- 10:04of what freedom of speech intellectual
- 10:07curiosity um I Pro some people say I
- 10:11know more about men than anybody in the
- 10:13world but I cannot get a job at any
- 10:17major university in the United States in
- 10:19the gender studies area the area I know
- 10:21the most about because I am not
- 10:24politically
- 10:26correct and that's very sad and so
- 10:30patriarchy is
- 10:35um is not the
- 10:38filter through which is it's not the
- 10:41only defining filter of men and women if
- 10:44men made the rules to benefit men at the
- 10:46expense of women here are some of the
- 10:48way the world here's some of the way the
- 10:50world would look like we would make
- 10:52rules that every woman would be sexual
- 10:54with us whatever we would like um and
- 10:58that the women who are very young maybe
- 11:0013 or 14 would be very interested in us
- 11:04that we would be um that when we were um
- 11:07that we would die we we have a longer
- 11:10life expectancy than women that the
- 11:12world would be set up in such a way that
- 11:14we would not be the sex to commit
- 11:15suicide uh we would be the sex to least
- 11:18be likely to commit suicide the world
- 11:20would be set up in such a way that we
- 11:22would um have women pay for us on dates
- 11:25uh because they valued us more than we
- 11:27valued them um and so that we we would
- 11:30have uh women take the sexual
- 11:32initiatives and um and risk rejection
- 11:34and we would sit back and say yes or no
- 11:37um depending on whether we wanted to or
- 11:38not uh we would uh if if a woman went
- 11:42too far too quickly we could yell date
- 11:44rape um but she couldn't and and she
- 11:46would be um uh she would have to wait
- 11:49until there was she was proved herself
- 11:51innocent um rather than the other way
- 11:53around uh we would have men's Studies
- 11:56classes and not women's Studies classes
- 11:58we would have women have to be the
- 12:00primary bread winner and earn more money
- 12:02because the road to high pay is a toll
- 12:04road it costs and it and it's takes a
- 12:06lot out of somebody to work very hard we
- 12:08would have the we would have three
- 12:10options when the children are born the
- 12:12option to raise the children the option
- 12:13to be involved in the in the workplace
- 12:15or the option to do some combination of
- 12:17both uh women would have just one option
- 12:19the option to raise money raise money or
- 12:21raise money and then we would feel free
- 12:22to blame them if they raise more money
- 12:24and feel free to reject them if they
- 12:26didn't raise enough money that's the way
- 12:28a patriarchy would look like like uh and
- 12:30that's just the tip of the iceberg of
- 12:32what it would look like um we would have
- 12:34female only draft registration um and
- 12:36not male only draft registration men
- 12:38would have the option to join the armed
- 12:40services but not the obligation to join
- 12:42the armed services the option to go to
- 12:43combat but not the expectation to go to
- 12:45combat um we would you that's the way a
- 12:48world would look like if it was a
- 12:50patriarchy
