Lol.

The heart of this debate is whether a subjugated group can also be privileged.

I brought up the case of white women because there seems to be consensus that they meet those criteria.

And you bring up the aggregate oppression of Black people under a white supremacist regime... but I swear you guys forget that Black Men are not the only ones considered sub-human under such circumstances, lol

I'm aware of how the child custody/ child support system works and how men face certain disadvantages. I just don't believe it absolves a man of the privilege he exercised from jump if he decided - at some earlier stage - that housing, feeding and raising his own children should be the mother's/grandmother's/aunt's/whoever's responsibility while he gets to go on just living life .

Not to mention, there's a lot of men that could have avoided dealing with said system by.. oh, I don't know... choosing to stick around and raise/co-parent their children?
