The idea of a male-dominant culture is the problem versus a human-dominant culture. No dominance is the goal. Male behavior is largely about “I” (self and self-centered): “What I want”, “What I want you to do”, “How I am bigger and smarter than you.” With most women it’s about “We” (other and joint focused): “What should we do”, “What do you think”, and “How should we proceed” building consensus and cooperation.
Do men avoid checking or challenging another male’s bad behavior, because they are self focused instead of community focused? Is there another explanation? Moreover, how do we move from our focus as dominant species to that of equal and co-existant?
