> You've discovered intersectionality

I read about that years ago and I don't take kindly to others trying to humiliate me with condescending statements like that.

> doesn't mean male priviliege and the patriarchy doesn't exist

That is why I said: "So, yes, there is a patriarchy."

But you miss the whole point as what I said has nothing to do with intersectionality. I'm trying to make the point that "men" even without some kind of obvious status disqualifiers are not always on the top of the status hierarchy. This is the case with almost all big groups. It's not so simple. I was also trying to point out that it's the lowest status men that get derided for being patriarchal as high status is attractive and untouchable.
