While power imbalances affecting group participation by women and other minorities, male dominance limiting freedom of expression, and the manmade nature of the English language are all discussed in Muted Group Theory, the theory does not support the idea that women should avoid challenging men in positions of power or that they should become more politically active. In fact, the theory argues that the marginalization of certain groups from communication and decision-making processes needs to be addressed and that greater inclusivity and equity is necessary for all voices to be heard.
