Women are the Patriarchy!

There’s a time when women rule the world. When women (not all women) present their nubile bodies, and men shudder in inferiority. It’s as clearly delineated as their perfects butts are in a bikini. Women are the source of chaos for men.

There’s an old adage: Men propose, women dispose. I often look to ancient wisdom, because it rings true. If the stories keep circling around after centuries then it would be foolish not to take note.

When men want sex or access to sex they must go negotiate this with women, unless they’re gay. If you’re a gay man then you’re veritably swimming in free hotdogs for life. If you are a low status male then you may take sex from a woman by force. Read, “The Dark Side of Man,” and you’ll be shocked by the stats. Women are the gatekeepers. They are far more discriminating about sexual partners (at least they used to be). Tinder and other dating apps may have changed this dynamic a bit.

Women are more likely to get a job upon graduating college than opposed to men. Women even earn more than men upon graduating. This changes after thirty, and it involves the decisions women make regarding family. Men try to woo women using their intelligence, gym memberships, status and potential monetary earning. Women are more selective than men in romantic partner.

Men are in constant competition with one another in the sexual market hierarchy. Some believe that art, music, literature and politics are all in order to get the prized female. Testosterone is more than just an aggression hormone. It’s a status-acquiring hormone. It’s what makes men want to wake up, and get that good money. If we break it down further then we may see that, men’s endeavors can be whittled down to pleasing women.

Yes, some would say there is a patriarchy. While this is an unfounded belief based not on fact, there is something to it. When women decide to study fields in college they often study fields that don’t garner an inflated salary. They also decide, statistically, to have a better balance to their work/life. Men, are the opposite, and go into fields that earn more money. They have a lopsided work/life balance. Why would men do this? They have more testosterone, which is said to be a motivator hormone. Why do they need to be motivated?

Women spend upwards of 80% of the household income. Maintaining a family and household are burdensome. Women are far superior in their multitasking abilities than men. It should be women who manage the spending, because they often have a better idea of what needs to happen in order for a household to run properly. I wouldn’t count on men to be as apt for it on average. Men are hardwired to chase after a higher income. We are better negotiators in the workforce, and fight harder for higher pay. We work hard so that we can bring home the bacon for our better half.

Much of men’s motivation comes from pleasing women. If this is true then how can there hypothetically be a patriarchy? Well, if we are presupposing that this is true, then we have to assume it’s not what it seems. It would appear that, women run the patriarchy! Behind every great man is a great woman. Behind every great patriarchy is a great matriarchy. It was Helen of Troy who was behind the demise of a civilization. The impetus for men’s destruction came about by worship of women kind.

If we really want to give women their due, and be feminist, then lets. Women have far greater influence then we may think. Men and women are partners in this world. I would also add that this balance is very greatly achieved in America. We don’t really have a matriarchy or patriarchy. What we have is a hierarchy based on competence and values. I can’t think of a smarter arrangement than that.
