Apparently this is an unpopular opinion among feminists. If feminism is about equality for everyone, it needs to address that. As an example, LGBTQ+ was extended many times to cover everyone in the community, and that’s the right thing to do. There isn’t just L and everyone repeats “Oh! Lesbians are for rights for everyone, no need to update that”

I don’t know what the new name should be, but it should cover gender equality for everyone.

    Ok, how about this…what if we did the patriarchy but different. Instead of being male dominant, it was just no dominance at all? Instead, we’d have marbles. And everybody gets the same amount of marbles. But the marbles don’t mean anything. Even if you took someone elses marbles, you just have 10 marbles instead of 5. But 10 marbles doesn’t do anything differently than 5 marbles. You just have 10 marbles. Same as you would today.

    So then, when it comes to things like money, and power, and dominance…no. No money. No power. No influence. No dominance. Just everybody gets 5 marbles.

    And instead of calling it the patriarchy, we can call it Flornandia. A word I just made up.

    Now, as it pertains to the giant rubber ducks…
