This is the shallow perspective of many men who dismiss modern feminism -- while feeling morally superior -- because they believe that we live in a post-feminist world where circular logic like 'modern feminism is self-defeatist because it focuses on women's issues' can actually appear to make sense.

You can _only_ approach these issues from the context of a society that is just now beginning to reflect and change with regards to concepts like female CEO's, binary genders, and male sensitivity.

Ignoring this social context is counter-productive, naive, and revealing of the issues that exist in modern gender AND race relations with the still-homogenous-but-slowly-declining social group of the middle class white male.
