I think Solnit is correct.
Indeed it was only at the last Man-Meeting (those covert monthly meetings when all 2.5 billion men meet up to discuss how best to oppress women) that someone mentioned that it was very unfair to whiney feminists that they should have to learn to speak up for themselves and that, in future, everyone should stop talking in their presence and listen to all their pathetic little grievences. YAWN!!
Lack of confidence is a human condition that both males and females suffer from. Its an upbringing thing and not a male induced syndrome. Feminists like Solnit will never be taken seriously, not because they are female, but because they constantly demand special treatment without meriting it.
