    Who would say they want to uphold the patriarchy? That part would be covered by the “traditional family values” if they really supported the idea and they’d deny that there is a patriarchy (but only if asked about it, they wouldn’t bring it up unless it was a troll, and in that case I don’t think they’d start with a real complaint).

      I wish I could be that naive. Come visit red city USA, some people say the most interesting things. And when you meet women who expect it… yeah. It is a thing.

        Though in that case, wouldn’t it be a troll? Like I assume that those who do talk about it in a positive way are doing it specifically to piss off feminists. Or women who want to “virtue signal” to men.

        It just seems like such a weird way to approach that in a positive sense.
