Men control most of the corporate moneys that go to grants for research. Men get to choose most often what is important. But it is an accepted and insidious woman-hating attitude that leaves us all in the dust. Men own 99.9 percent of the world's production. Men overwhelmingly control the religious organizations in positions of power.
Men are the huge majority of our politicians in power.
In so doing, we open up a whole area of jurisdiction over reproduction. If we women let men sway us into their religious or political ideas that promote reproductive rights as illegal, then we have lost everything. Our society tolerates and even advocates indiscriminate and systemic violence where choice or consent is absent. Take for example, in woman-battering, rape, and war. But this same society upholds stringent taboos against consenting women adults exploring the complexity of the power of sexuality and reproduction.
