> The dirty little secret is that an awful lot of women reinforce the male dominant status quo. See also the white female Trump vote dynamic, when they could have elected a white woman. But I say that somewhat facetiously because there's nothing special about that. A similar dynamic exists anywhere identities, privilege, disadvantage, and circumstance don't neatly align. When the white woman vote is brought up, I often say, "I bet there's a pretty stark divide between white women married to white men versus all other white women". Identity can't be deconstructed in neat little linear slices. And bias isn't just something oppressors do to the opposed -- it's systemic and universal. We're mostly all in this together, even though we gain from or suffer the consequences in different ways.
