Yes, the men are indeed always worse. Not just in this regard, obviously, but in literally every other way since humans have existed.
Greer’s line about women’s biggest problem facing us was our own internalised misogyny always drove me crazy for a similar reason. It’s a good point, it is. I get as crazy at women throwing other women under the bus as much as anyone, I do, but firstly: she says it like she’s not one of those women- as if she’s a differentkindofwoman and secondly, and much more importantly MEN!!!!
Like fuck, I loath women who throw women under the bus. But it’s MEN who are the problem here. It’s MEN who have all the power. And it’s MEN who will sit back and laugh at any women claiming women are the problem. Divide and conquer benefits MEN.

I always thought it was rape, murder, torture, pedophilia, and every other awful thing men do to women and girls. Wtf.
Pretty misogynistic of her to say. Blaming women for our own problems.....
Men are the ones driving the bus.
...I mean, the whole reason women screw over other women is to better position themselves to impress men.
Not to mention that women are driven to compete with each other because men artificially restrict resources and make us fight for them. It's the manufactured scarcity: women would never play along if they were physically and materially secure. This is how all oppressed populations act.
At the same time there's a conversation to be had about how much enabling other women do.
He would say that.
He’s right, but as usual he’s neglected the obvious and important- that almost all men will belong there also.
