Document Summary

An example she gives is if we want to get rid of this patriarchy we need to end the domination that is present in parent child relationships. We can start to deconstruct male domination by bringing attention to women being capable of domination. Revolution - remove seeing ourselves (women) as objects to acting as subjects . The point of her article was to inform us that women have a common oppression and that we need to look past everything and act as one unit. Peggy"s main argument was of relating white privilege to male privilege and how it"s unearned advantage that men or white people receive. Unearned male advantage basically confers dominance, she says that just like white people are taught not to recognize their white advantage , men are taught not to show their dominance. She says in one of her paragraphs that even if this unearned advantage is unintentional men do not seem to lessen their unearned power.
