Why do we need to define ourselves in relation to men? I think it's much more productive to define oneself in relation to oneself as an individual, and to others as individuals, rather than defining yourself as part of a group set opposite another group. These kinds of definitions - the ones you list above - are inherently limiting, whether they're positive or negative.
