Are they fighting the Patriarchy?

You should really set up a Google alert for that, and then you might find out. :)

 

I haven't seen anything in mine, but I usually get my daily digest around 6pm Pacific.

iHarare has added its voice to the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence, by highlighting a facet of Gender-Based Violence which does not get as much attention.   That of men being abused by their female partners.  Unfortunately, due to patriarchy, most men find it hard to report cases of domestic abuse from their partners as they fear being ridiculed by society.

Yeah, I thought so too. Men are also victims of the patriarchy, for sure. 

 

Most of the articles I get in the digest are from India, followed by sub-Saharan Africa and Malaysia. US/UK/Canada/Australia/Western Europe are less frequent, which is heartening in its own way.

Any thoughts about the election? Going to try and stay up tomorrow for the results.
