only the men need to be watched to keep them from becoming mean and bigoted.

Women are apparently naturally free from such failings. Men are only civilized when in the presence of women. Their natural state is just awful.

Which is why no rad-fem group has ever been less than unwelcoming to people who are different from the norm. Like say transexuals.
