Obsessed with blaming women

Patriarchy is dedicated to and obsessed with blaming women — but never stops using, profiting from, and bathing in their resources. It belittles them, censors them, and oppresses them, yet it “survives” because of them.

Men sit on thrones built from women’s sacrifices, women's intellect, and women’s strength — and still dare to call them “weaker.” They want a scapegoat, a therapist, a maid, and a muse — all in one, for the price of contempt.

They use women's backs as ladders, then complain they aren’t flat enough. What biased reasoning!

They blame women for fractured households while offering nothing but neglect and absence in return.

They blame women for being “irrational, hysterical, and overly sensitive,” yet dump all their insecurities, aggression, and mental load onto them.
