I won't deny that a lot of "feminist" ideology perpetuates the idea of women as victims. Having said that, the rest of the article seems like pure, unadulterated malarkey. Decry the victimhood notion, and in the same breath, reserve it for men? Paint bra-snapping and degrading comments as acceptable? I'm sure this article was meant to provoke, but really, must it be so unsubtle and based on a collection of facts without context? More men are in prison, more men drop out, yes. Why this is should be examined. If there is a disparity in treatment, it should be rectified. But the idea that men are some kind of victim in that is as silly and shrill as some of the feminist rantings. Rather, were you to discuss custody and child support issues, not only would it be provocative, it might even be interesting and merited too.
