Androcentrism is the privileging of masculine or male-associated
traits over feminine or female-associated traits, whatever the
gender of the person with these traits. Examples of
androcentrism might include: - disgust for the colour pink, as
worn or liked by anyone - dress codes (whether formal, or, as in
geek culture, informal) that privilege wearing pants over skirts
or dresses - steering one's daughters or other young women one
has influence over towards masculine hobbies or actively away
from feminine hobbies Note: critiques of androcentrism do not
require that women have feminine traits or presentation, simply
that women and others that do have these traits should not be
discriminated against or considered lesser. The societal
assignment of traits to the masculine and feminine categories in
the first place is a core part of the maintainence of the gender
binary.
