there's a cabal of rich and powerful men working together to benefit men and oppress women
stopped reading here, you have no idea what you're actually arguing against yet you wrote an entire essay against it. cool.
Every man/tranny that rejects the idea of the patriarchy and instead insists on the existence of the matriarchy make...
Rule by mothers really sucks though
holy shit someone who understands the anthropological meaning of patriarchy
it doesn't happen automatically
Yeah it happens when agricultural begins because control and protection of a single space and location is absolutely necessary. So wanna go back to being nomads?
Masculinity = active by nature
Femininity = passive by nature
The masculine will always control the highest eschlons of power and resources simply due to being more aggressive.
The feminine power is enchantment, reliant on gaining the favor of the masculine. That seems like an unfair power to a weak willed feminine male who hasn't yet tried to practice enchantment himself, but also fails to be masculine.
Trying to compete directly with the masculine as a feminine doesn't work, the masculine will be much more aggressive and ruthless.
So yes patriarchy exists and the fact that some women get gifted things by men they have enchanted doesn't change that.
i literally said it's better in many respects than the forms of social organization that came before it. i don't want to go back to what we had before it. i want to keep going forward and building new systems that are better suited to the new material conditions we face as a result of technological change.
bonobos are fully aware that you cannot just tell everyone u are free to be genderless bi ped and u do not have to be burdened with the role of your gender. Your role is given to you so your child can have less competition for resources and continue the hierarchy to their kids which is a paradox only broken by stopping the roles which also means no kids.
patriarchy is about the ownership of women and children by fathers as a means of ensuring the continued reproduction of the system, and about making the highest ambition and duty of people designated by society as men "become a patriarch".
oh well in that case patriarchy clearly doesn't exist in modern society
women and children are not in any sense the property of their fathers, and there's no great emphasis on becoming a patriarch
maybe go tell the afghans about it
lol I wrote a paragraph on my phone on the toilet
patriarchy theory is about as scientific as complaining about zog, globalists, masons, illuminati, etc. There's no serious political philosophy done on the topic, it's pure ideology being used to attack the one group that it's advocates blame for literally everything else wrong with the world too
it's pure ideology being used to attack the one group
again, you have literally no idea what you're talking about yet are all to willing to make strong broad sweeping judgements. that is not what the patriarchy is.
