After Empowerment, Retribution
It is too often true that when a group struggles for equality, it is still not pleased when it reaches that. Rather, the group takes its newfound empowerment and seeks retribution upon those who they feel scorned them and caused their previous hardship.In the U.S.A., it's too common for men and boys to become the scapegoat for problems for which both genders need to share responsibility. Glenn Sacks writes consistently about the other side of the pendulum, where all men have been painted with the same brush. I can't speak for his politics (I haven't looked them up) but his reports are so spot on they hurt.
While we may become more enlightened in certain ways, we've slipped so far back in others.
