Hi Mattias,
Good thoughts. I alternative way to overcome binary thinking is to frame
the opposing concepts as a continuum where neither extreme is realistic. I
would say that none of our actions, thoughts or positions are fully
masculine or feminine, they all fall in a continuum or tridimensional space
if you will. Then, we should not avoid conflict but embrace it and learn
how to resolve conflicts peacefully. For those interested, Enrique Chaux,
from my native Colombia, has great work in conflict, peace, and citizenship
(https://uniandes.academia.edu/EnriqueChaux).
I find myself agreeing to strong reactions to misogyny. I think it is
unacceptable. Then, I wonder how we can have a more peaceful conflict
resolution, not an easy task.
