i'm not being ironic.
a lot of the legal literature you see nowadays looks like it was written in the bloody victorian era, with the intent to minimize stress on the gentler sex. and, there's nothing feminist about any of it. it's just reactionary patriarchal conservatism hiding behind a veneer of altruistic chauvinism.
but, it's not like younger women are grasping on to it by accident. this reversal of feminism was a part of neo-liberalism. it's manufactured. it's taught. and, like so much of the language, we've had the terms inverted.
women should not get special treatment in the legal system - because they are strong enough and capable enough to be treated the same way that we treat men. and, don't let these victorian reactionaries and gentlemanly chauvinists tell you otherwise.
