Patriarchy In our society

Patriarchy basically means men holding the primary power in all sorts of things, in such a way that it gives privilege to them to dominate females. It can be seen in personnel lives viz. family and in professionalism. Patriarchy has been evolving around in our society since the very beginning of mankind, it has slowly evolved but the practices and traditions are still the same as it was since many years ago.

Men are treated as superior to females in all sorts of ways, are always prioritized and value over women. The patriarchal society treats women as a weal, inferior and dependent figure who needs support to survive. Why do women have such pre-judged notions? For instance, when the man in the family can stay up late for work at night, why aren’t women allowed to stay up late? When a child is born in the family, why is it only the mother’s duty to take good care and spend 24/7 with them? Why are women always said or expected to be dependent on men to survive? Is it that women are actually weak or are told so for decades to only make it a fact before testing the truth? Men are anticipated to be more strong; emotionally and physically, dominating, bread wiener, supporter, and protector of the family. Why is it believed that women are less than men?
