I find his understanding of "diversity" worrying...

I kinda agree. On the one hand, the cycle is easier to break at the
beginning by men. But it's a bit utopic, because men will not have any
desire to break it because they'll loose privileges as a result. On the
other hand, it is possible to break the cycle later on by women (or
else, there is no hope for feminist struggle -after all, society is an
established community-).
