I've never heard this claim, only "money is the root of all evil".
Patriarchal society is profoundly harmful, but that's not an issue that divides sex or gender - patriarchal culture also directly hurts men. Men aren't immune from its problems simply because patriarchy systematically positions them above others. We can generalize this false-attribution error to other identity conflicts like sexuality, race, ethnicity, appearance, etc., it's easier to notice and then blame the tangible benefactor rather than identify the underlying system and its roots.
The love of money is the root of all evil.
Money is the root of the love of money.
well then i guess it's dependent on your environment and who you spend your time with. i've definitely heard a friend say it just this week, although she said it jokingly.
It definitely is! I didn't mean it to dismiss or anything, I know there are people out there who would say that, I just haven't heard it said around me.
