I'm not suggesting, incidentally, that women are the only or prime sufferers of oppression, violence and discrimination. Patriarchy is often wheeled out as female suffering under male oppression, but the reality is that under a patriarchal system, most people male and female, live under a form of oppression. Gender, class and race all work together to produce variable experiences and identities.
Female and male emancipation and equality are two parts of the same basic equation. As is the not yet fully understood territory between male and female.
