I really really don't think that is what she's saying.
I think she's saying: "Grasp, for a moment, the concept that most of the things you hold dear and strive for are mere societal constructs that not only don't define your potential, but in fact can limit what you can achieve. Further, the achievements could be for intangibles instead of money, power, or fame. Realize how small you are to the universe, how insignificant. Be humbled by it. Be humbled by the concept of life, and that you have the gift of it, but not for long. Don't waste your few dozen years of existence on trifle things."
I'm saying that isn't a welcome message for many men that define themselves as the higher of a relationship of subjugation. Whether that subjugation is based on perceived superiority to another gender, race, or religion. To this small percentage of men, inferiority, in any form is considered a weakness, and only bold acts of depravity would wipe away that stain in their twisted minds.
