Also, women certainly perpetuate patriarchy. Giving up the Special Boys' Club Member's Card is a tough thing and changing is difficult and taking responsibility for one's own place in the world is immensely hard. Also, unfortunately being a woman is no guarantee that someone will get it.

Ha, a girl in my class said "But do you really think boys think that way?" when me and Katy were discussing the fact that if women talk more than a third of the time, men perceive it as women talking most of the time. There's research on it, so much research on it, and it's structural, not personal. SIGH.
