Do people really want want Patriarchy to end?... Most people don't understand that Patriarchy is a double edged Sword, hurting both guys and ladies. It's built on the foundation that ladies are minorities and not equal to men, needing to be babied and all that shit. And that guys are superior in someway which doesn't make sense. Problem is people complain but will still actively practice it, and this applies to all fronts. For example, in this world Money runs almost everything, most guys are afraid of being with girls who earn higher than them cause they feel belittled. Then again most girls believe that men are the "Head/Provider" and if he earns less than them they wouldn't want to be with them. Partially blame capitalism for this one though

I myself have noticed how I subconsciously practice it, the prejudice, assuming women always need a hand... I even understand I might be as cocky as I am(no pun intended) cause I'm a man... Noticing these patterns is easy but doing sth about them is where the problem is. Everyone is vocal about it but they only choose to speak out on the ones they don't agree with. The whole thing needs to go you can't just nitpick the ones you don't agree with. You can't demolish the first floor of a 10 story building without the whole building going down...

What we define as femininity and masculinity are just made up social constructs... I saw some meme saying how it is not feminine to Hustle, like what does that even mean???? And Mind you it was a girl posting it😭. Hata these videos of sijui "Kama mwanaume unaoga aje, or some random BS, is not even funny yet we promote them .Rn we're the new adults, the whole point of being adults is independence, we need to take responsibility of who we are at the core and your gender shouldn't necessarily define that. Using "that's how I was raised" or "that's how things are" is wrong. Everything is evolving so why should we stay the same... We need to unlearn old habits. The Conditioning starts as early as toys, dressing and cartoons bruh, it is THAT BAD

Nothing will probably change cause everyone has this bias on what to expect from the opposite gender or how someone is "supposed" to behave based off their gender which doesn't make sense cause nothing in life is never really that black or white (MJ reference)... Y'all are probably lost causes but how will you raise your kids?
