What, indeed, is the point of ANYTHING focusing on women if, really, we're ALL women, or men, if we but simply choose to be?
Frankly, in what might be an unusual twist, I've often thought that movements such as feminism, focusing as they do on only one group of society, often run the risk of becoming, parochial, tribalistic, hostile, defensive, and finally fatally dysfunctional.
Feminism DID, indeed, devolve into all those things, and is now an intellectually bankrupt collection of embittered academics and weirdos scrabbling desperately to remain relevant.
How ironic that it might be, essentially, a bunch of men masquerading as women to push feminism into well-deserved desuetude!
