Patriarchy isn’t just bad for the ladies. It’s also bad for the dudes. Patriarchy sets up unrealistic and unnecessary expectations for both genders. Women are expected to be quiet, pretty, pleasant, not too bright, and domestic…and inferior to men. (Sugar and spice and everything nice.) Men are expected to be strong, unemotional, fearless, intelligent providers…and superior to women.
