 * 1983, Sheila Ruth, quoted in Judith Evans (1986), Feminism and Political Theory, ISBN 0803997051, page 70:
 * Fascism, fully revealed, is the extreme, exquisite expression of masculism, of patriarchy, and thus the natural enemy of feminism, its quintessential opposite.

 * As Brittan (1989:4) has succinctly put it, "the ideology that justifies and naturalizes male domination" is "masculism." And masculism is already antisocial because masculism as an ideology universalizes "man" as the "maker" of history.

promotion of male values, machismo

 * 1994, Sheila Ruth, Take Back the Light: A Feminist Reclamation of Spirituality and Religion ISBN 0822630311, pages 169 and 180:
 * In patriarchy, clearly identifiable themes and practices have sent them awry: (1) The first, and most all encompassing, is masculism, which is the adoration of a perverse masculinity represented in the person of Mars, the ancient god of war. A masculist orientation contains the worship of power, an acceptance of violence, an obsession with death, and an inclination toward the morbid and negative aspects of life.

promotion (and appropriation) of male values

 * Thus, mainstream feminism should really be called "masculism," because it glorifies everything that pertains to men and seeks to appropriate it for women.

 * There are two quite different forces lumped together in the category of "patriarchy."
