Margaret Mead wrote:
• The male form of a female liberationist is a male liberationist — a man who realizes the unfairness of having to work all his life to support a wife and children so that someday his widow may live in comfort, a man who points out that commuting to a job he doesn’t like is just as oppressive as his wife’s imprisonment in a suburb, a man who rejects his exclusion, by society and most women, from participation in childbirth and the most engrossing, delightful care of young children — a man, in fact, who wants to relate himself to people and the world around him as a person.
That’s a thought-provoking paragraph. It appeals to my humanist side. Mead was mentioned in an RSA Animate which then made me go and look for more of her writing.
