Why are people keep blaming "the patriarchy" for a lot of things?

I've seen a lot of people, mostly women all over social media, complain about how the patriarchy ruins things and have no clue why. At this point, it's annoying. 🤦🏾‍♂️

I want to hear from y'all.

Looks like you have no much experience on Patriarchy or know what patriarchy is all about. A very simple question would be why Victoria called herself a Queen when she was actually a [b]Lady King [/b]. And whether patriarchy will let a female to be addressed as [b] Father [/b] if she qualifies to be one in a church ?

@in10RjFox There's the internet for a reason, and I've looked up on this. I simply asked, then wanted honest opinions.

@xSiFiGamer2016x and what did you get to know about Patriarchy ?

@in10RjFox From what I've gathered so far, it's about how us men have many benefits and consequences of us just being men. Also to include that has a huge impact between genders.

When it comes to the patriarchy, there are roles that men follow, even if they don't want to. We're taught that masculinity is important for everyday tasks like working, being a leader, not being some wimp or whatever. As for the downsides, men go through tough times that are way more serious than what women go through like sexual harassment, rape, suicide, and simply just not having as much freedom as women do. Basically, patriarchy is supposed to help us build the world for both men and women to thrive, but every action comes with consequences.

I can see that we need the patriarchy, but others are blaming it with a passion.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

😀😀 What a conclusion! .. so now ask yourself why future needs it and what purpose has it served.

If we were taught that masculinity is important for everyday task, then logically everyone that does tasks manage and lead is masculine. It never said only man can work or lead. So the problem is in assuming masculinity as property of males

So stop believing and start getting to know. Analyse and investigate.
