No. Even by the absurd feminist definition of patriarchy, we still don't live in one. What disadvantages do women face that men don't on a greater scale?
I doubt it, there is "Affirmative action" which discriminates against white/male minorities (in big US cities whites are minority despite the fact that the country must be 78% white...if we're to believe official stats that is...). Also, the next president is most likely going to be a female, which is perfectly fine of course IF it wasn't for the fact that the only reason people vote for her is...because she's a woman. I frankly don't/shouldn't care though.
I am not an American and only care to the extent to which US is involved in international relations. That is: Yes, I will care if you put a nuttjob as president as you have nuclear weapons. I'd also care for that reason and about china, russia etc.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
