no. men (and women) need to take responsibility for the patriarchy, which manifests especially in oppressive behavior, primarily from and benefiting men but of course not limited to such.

there’s a bit of an equivocation of two distinct meanings of “responsible.” feminism is about being a brother’s keeper type of responsibility, not about direct culpability in the actions of others.

no one is ever individually responsible for the actions of another individual. but we are all responsible to protect and look out for each other.

it’s a subtle difference but so, so important, so please read a couple times to understand.
