How to piss off your dad and other patriarchs.
Pissing off the patriarchy is easy. All it takes is the belief that the sexes are equal and men need to reconize their position as opressors. Begin with the men in your family who are concrete examples of male privledge. Take my dad for example. He's not that bad a guy until you get a couple o cups a whisky in him. The worst of this is where he won't shut up and begins to curicularly talk. In addtion he gets mad when you interrupt his rude domination of the conversation. This type of entitlement, drunk or sober is not uncommon among males I have observed, though they only usually get pissed when it is a woman who tries to shut down their monotonus monolog. When men interupt other men it is seen as just part of the conversation, but when a woman does it is disrespect. Anyway what my personal patriarch really hates it when you correct him, in particular in his own home. In public and in the company of other women you can slide alot farther. To hit where it hurts the most though I add alot of eye rolling while he trys to explain what an asshole I am for not listenting to him. If you get bored with this though I suggest storming off with a cold slicing comment like " Your weakness expressed as anger makes me respect you less."
