Title:
Body:	No selfish but an itrenesting point.Feminism has won. It fought a battle that was a fight to be like men. And lo, when then got it, they still weren't happy. They fought the wrong battle.Yes, on average, men earn more than women. But, and here is the point about pay, there are still millions of men who earn fractions of the salary the highest paid men in the country. Yes, more men are in positions of power (say the Cabinet), but again millions of men are not in positions of power, are as powerless as women and have no way to achieve the power that feminists say they have. Thing is, no movement seeks to specifically raise the pay of poorly paid men. No columnist calls into question why the many men who are not in power are not actually in power. Some men who are not well paid or do not have power in fact have voices for them. BME groups advocate that there should be more black men (and women) in parliament and should earn more. LGBT groups seek to ensure that employment laws protect LGBT employees. Women's groups advocate that women should be able to earn the same as men regardless of skills, experiences or personal negotiating skills. In fact, on average, women earn more than men up to the age of 30 but then childbirth disrupts that. But still the argument goes that when coming back to work, the pay should have risen anyway.Who speaks for the average white male? The average white male that doesn't earn a lot or have a position of power.Lots of these white men will feel alone as no-one is offering them support. This can lead to the totally wrong and disastrous idea of seeking the power and control that Lily Greenan mentions via a violent relationship with the partner at home. The complete role and position of men in society needs to be examined so that we can then work out why men are violent and violent to their partners and children. And that is a conversation is even less likely to happen than than Gerry Hassans question e2€œwhy do we seem to be uncomfortable and unwilling to begin a debate about men behaving badly?e2€9d.The correct battle for feminists would have been for a better society for all. Which is the one we need to think about now.
