Inherent in relationships is the desire to dominate and these are the seeds that lead to death."<BR/><BR/>men sometimes do find themselves in an abusive relationship too but in that case the violence is not systemic, it is not institutionalized, unlike male violence on women which is internalized in the patriarchal institutions and I think that's what the feminist argument is.<BR/><BR/>i personally don't feel comfortable with this line of argument that finds continuity between fascism, holocaust and then takes it into interpersonal realms but it is certainly a very provocative idea.Alokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12947383354732747209noreply@blogger.com
