This isn’t about women. It’s about power. That men hold. Feminism isn’t about females, it’s about equality. So much of today’s senate hearings—which are senate hearings, not court trials (though they obviously will affect future trials)—focus on the accuser, not the accused. She is not nominated for the supreme court, her alleged attacker is. The…
