Why is romantic love viewed as a cultural invention created by men for the subjugation of women?

Why do people believe that? Didn't they have no emotion at all believing that love is a fictitious substitute that a woman have been deceived into accepting in lieu of power, prestige, wealth, education or any empowering ideal to which women may aspire...having love is somehow supposed to make any deficiency in their lives acceptable.

While there probably are fucked up relationships like that in existence, judging an entire gender/making a broad generalization that somehow the basis of romantic love is predicated on someone being “weak” or having a “deficiency” is something that someone who’s bitter and insecure would say.
