Women inadvertently pushing patriarchal ideas

I (21F) am a feminist! I just want to put that out there. I have a thought though. I saw a tiktok pointing out that unlike women, men’s bodies are not categorized and labeled on diagrams. There are no pears or hourglasses or whatever. Not only are we incorrectly taught that men only like thin women, but we’re taught that the shape of our bodies- rib and shoulder alignment, torso and leg proportions- means something! Then I realized that I’ve never heard a man talking about women’s body shapes. This has only ever been pushed on me by women.

SO- I’m just thinking about how so many women, who I don’t think would be antifeminism, are still the ones pushing this agenda. Excluding the explicitly antifeminist women out there🫤

I’m inclined to believe that this is just the product of a DEEPLY rooted patriarchy…
