A male cannot be a feminist. He cannot experience the setting in which must be attained to tell the narrative of what it is to be a feminist. His narrative, the plot, the characters, the climax are all so different from that of the female. Her narrative contains so many twist and turns of confusion, dishonesty, and distrust. His is the straight line, heading ever forward to its destiny of remaining parallel with the status quo, not worrying with things that do not effect him.
Women remain to be the curvy, ornamental-like, line.
A man can sympathize with being discriminated, but he will never feel the restraint and the weight of raising a family unless the current social norms are changed.

A man can be neither a feminist nor a patriot to the female gender. In this paper I have brought together the ideas of patriotism and gender.
