1. It is a systematic problem all over the world. Male aggression towards women.

Sexual or non-sexual.

2. It has been happening for thousands

of years...male domination. How civilized are our civilizations/societies? We aren't evolving much at all. If I hear the term "man cave" one more time I will throw up. The entire planet is a man's world/cave and always has been. To think differently is delusional.

3. Yes. In historical time, only recently did women get the right to vote.

To hold property or have her own bank accounts. To learn to read and write.
To attend college and professional schools. To use family planning aids to prevent continual pregnancy.

I wonder what our planet would be like now, if women had equal rights and full partnership status with men for the past 2000 years.

4. I imagine a healthy and thriving planet

with civilized societies caring about one another.

6. Clean food, air and water. Education for all. Sick people can see a doctor.

A decrease in war.

Men have had control of the planet for the last 3000 yrs. Maybe they should take a time out and let
women take a crack at it.

5. Simple ... RAPE CULTURE

Frat's still have young men in training ... don't shoot the messenger ... boys need to be trained against this (acceptable) form of behavior.
