"Men always come first in the pseudo-feminist political program of the right. Trump’s locker room showboating is less of a Freudian slip than a summation of the gender politics that have been center stage in the United States over the last seven years. An embrace of a firmly held belief that in many domains of life women are lesser."

"Threats to male dominance are particularly acute for younger men, who did not inherit the patriarchal advantages their fathers and grandfathers did. Today, roughly 57 percent of undergraduate students and 60 percent of graduate students are women. At 52 percent, the share of undergraduates today who are white has plummeted from 82 percent 50 years ago. Law, medical, and other professional schools likewise feature rising shares of women and minorities."
"As the economic landscape shifts beneath their feet, confused and aggrieved young white men — and a growing number of non-white Gen Z men, too — are, ironically enough, searching for the 'safe spaces' they tend to mock."

"The logical conclusion of a women’s empowerment project that in rhetoric and in practice insists on keeping women in the shadow of men."
