Ever read The Second Sex? A good point the author makes in that among many is that where there is one, there is also the other. Locals and foreigners, family and strangers, hot and cold, gay and straight, men and women. We naturally form groups socially and define others outside of those groups in relation to ourselves. So it makes sense that some of us sometimes bond with our "in" groups by antagonising the Others, since the distinction between the in group and the others is what creates the in group. But by no means does it mean that that's the ONLY thing those groups bond over or that its unique to men. This quote is ridiculous lol
