Great article. And in response to an Instagram commenter saying “why do we need to center the oppressor by talking about how patriarchy harms men” and implying this is a new thing, the author pointed out how black men have been harmed by patriarchy from the get go. Remember that part of white feminism is treating men as one basic class as well as treating women as such.
Honestly I think the whole cat vs dog personality trope boils down to cats not being able to do “puppy dog eyes”. Like there’s no actual difference in personality between the species, only between individuals of either. My cat and most others I’ve met are sweet angels. Plenty of dogs have behavioral issues. Any sweet angel cat or dog can be a butthole sometimes because they’re an animal and don’t know how to communicate their needs to us without barking or biting or scratching or knocking things off tables. Yet cats get portrayed as antisocial and aloof (at best, evil demons at worst) to a dogs undying loyalty and love (and angelicness). Which, like I said, as a cat owner I can tell you is bullshit. There’s certainly not an evil bone in any of those tiny animals’ bodies even if some of them are a bit more antisocial (again, same for dogs, I personally know a couple who have real trouble socializing). But their facial expressions are different from dogs so that puts people off. Like do you know how often I show someone a picture of my cat like, look at this cutie! and they go “she looks mad/annoyed”???
