Qow this comment section is made up of butthurt weak men. Who scream "what about us" lol. Ugh.

I'll believe in equality when women get conscripted just like men, and have to go fight on the front line just like men. I'll believe in equality when someone gives me a bad time in a restaurant and I can turn to the woman I'm with and say "are you going to let them talk to me like that?". I'll believe in equality when I'm lying in bed at night, hear a noise downstairs, and it's my wife who goes down to see what caused it. These things will never happen.

Where DID patriarchy come from? As if the answere isn't completely obvious (like men aren't stronger and better adapted to survive harsh conditions and therefore have the advantage over women who then depend on them for survival). I wonder why children aren't in charge of their parents.

Bonobos also resolve their tensions through sexual promiscuity. They would rather fuck than fight. Oh how I miss the 60's.

THE MAJOR RELIGIONS ARE BASED ON THE CONCEPT OF FEMALES AS NATURALLY INFERIOR AND MALES AS LEADERS, WITH NO PROOF. DIVIDE AND RULE.

Great video. I wonder about wiccan society, because they seemed to have a more egalitarian system, compared to most indigenous cultures. Is that why they were severely demonized and destroyed? They were herbalists, naturalists, midwives, etc., from what i can decipher, a more peaceful people than most.

Thank you for creating this.

7:39 - You blew it here. ...to say that bra burning "never happened", when it absolutely DID. Just because it didn't happen on that one day, that's not an excuse for Revisionist History. th-cam.com/video/vcS3QevoG0g/w-d-xo.html

Very insightful

look to modern tribes

When Adam had to cough up a rib? Can you imagine the whining….

Your work is amazing. ! Thank you! Wow! I grew up in the 40’s, 50’s and 60’s in a Mormon family. I vowed I would NEVER get married and become a slave like my mother. I was lucky to discover Osho (then Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh) and that was the turning point in my life. I literally experienced love for the first time (up until then I had thought it was a cruel joke). I hadn’t even thought to read Simone de Bouvior and Betty Friedan. I’ve sent your channel to 3 people and have LOVED watching your videos for the last 3 hours. It feels like I can finally take back my full power. Whew! I’ve been writing and thinking about The Return of the Divine Feminine for YEARS…. But didn’t have this context of history. (I was still recovering from the C-PTSD of my childhood.). Your work is important and timely when so many women are finally popping out of the stupor we’ve been raised in! Thank you!

0:35 as long as it was translated correctly? /Jkjk

That was literal patriarchy, with actual patriarchs. Not customs within a society where capital rules.

Interesting video. I've been studying this subject since I was a kid. Read quite a few books about it too so I subscribed to your channel and hope to learn more about this.

Men don’t exist to me.

Yes i guess i have and am experiencing both sides...i was medicated for 27 years..which destroyed my soul...i now live off-grid, single, on 50 acres, splitting wood to stay warm where it snows in winter...yes being in nature is very beneficial....i remember as i child i rode horses...it was the happiest time of my life..

To answer the question, the Bible ! Duh

All I need to know is that it is not working for humanity. We're killing ourselves with this BS

Hell. It came from hell.

So what's the action plan for the future? We know what's wrong. How do we change ourselves, others, our society? The U.S. seems to have taken a huge step backward but that shouldn't deter us. I'm an ally, what's the plan? What can I do? When do we get started? What will never work is endlessly going over all the things that are wrong. I know enough to know that bras are very often uncomfortable so as a metaphor for the liberation of women they're ideal. So let morons go on about it. I liked the Women's March. Ideally a series of marches growing in size is brilliant. How about a men's march supporting gender equality? Make a list of diversity demands for universities that are shutting down affirmative action and diversity programs. They don't have to have an official program to continue with diversity equity and inclusion. Women are now the majority of college students. Pick a school, demand specific changes and then have people from other schools call that school up to ask about students who've applied for a transfer. (It'll be really successful if political leaders start whining about bra burning feminazis.) The rallying cry I learned from the Civil Rights and anti War Movements is What do we do next? And remember what Gandhi said "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, and then you win."

It's better to check out Elisha Daeva's book; BEFORE WAR.

Until they stop rayping and killing us, we will be oppressed. As long as they feel entitled to our free labor, we will be oppressed

Just discovered your channel and I’m now subscribed and enjoying the content.

Wonderful vid! We used to have an annual effigy burning party (history, irrelevant), and one year a friend burned a genuine padded bra. It was quite an experience. But without a doubt very funny!

Why they did what they did? What factors led to this choice of decision? How about each other civilisations that developed independently? If we are to re-run this evolution of human civilisation isolated for multiple times, will things have ended up differently?

A man being the head of the household does not mean that the woman is a ''sidekick doormat'' . There is external leadership (associated with masculinity ) and internal leadership (associated with femininity) . Men and women having different and complementary roles is something very natural based on our hormones and STOP SHAMING WOMEN who do not like the corporate world , women who CAN NOT function in a masculine way at work , women who do not like to wear pants , women who do not like to drive cars , allright ? WE DO NOT NEED to cut ourselves from men totally , we only need to be independent from men when we have been too close to abusive men , but when you find good men it is totallt good and beneficial to depend on them (they will depend on us anyway , so it is only fair to depend on them too....if they deserve that level of trust from us).

Beauvuoir was a hater of everything that has to do with feminine qualities that are related to motherhood and domesticity. SOME WOMEN' S DREAM IS DOMESTICITY . OKAY ? GET OVER IT.

I feel ill with anger after watching this!

Fascinating topic. Makes me wish we could go back to partnership societies. Are male bonobos treated like outcasts? Also the part about dominance societies conquering the partnership societies deserves some more investigation. It’s as if a couple of outlier groups had some genetic variant that leads to patriarchy and dominance and it was all downhill from there.

Even my grandmother would be rolling over in her grave. She graduated with a bachelor's degree in 1924 from the University of Toronto but there were not many options for a women and became a high school teacher but had to quit when she got married at 31 years old. She used whatever birth control was available to have just 2 children. She spent most of her time outside the house volunteering and doing advocacy work.

This is a GREAT example of the importance of good marketing! Feminism could do with more of it

Therefore, these “laws” were not established by God but by wicked men in Babylon. Christians are to keep nothing of Babylon because God will destroy it. I’m sure that most seminaries know about the history but they are so bent on keeping “their place” in society it’s become a secret to keep from women. Therefore, men continue to commit this sin which is on the same line as pagan worship. Men want to be idolized, which, again is a sin.

I love that the Lavender Menace became a war cry, though.

I’m a bit surprised you stated the written laws without considering the possible reasons for them. I hoped to learn why the decisions were made the way they were made. I have pondered the need for physical size…farming, travel and fighting, the need for labor(many children) and the fact that women are generally physically smaller than men, independent control of our fertility is, as best we know, a relatively very recent development so women could be pregnant most of the time for many years and overall shorter lifespans so having many children, quickly, because additionally there were much higher rates of maternal mortality and infant mortality created a reality for a group to survive the women had to be essentially brood mares. I have no idea if there is any documentation for this but it would be intriguing to hear about these possibilities.

Many Native American societies saw women as equal to men, allowed them to make important decisions and own property. Native women did most of the work keeping their societies together as men got to 'play' all day hunting and fishing.

It's heartbreaking to see trans exclusionary Feminists repeating divisive patterns. We are too eager to judge importance, too willing to discard our sisters.

And as my Greatest Generation Mother used to say... "Society is not very kind to divorced Women." My Mother always understood how economically trapped she was by Heterosexual male patriarchy. Despite all of her Middle Class Red Lined privilege.💙

I have read that Van Gelder, comparing the feminist movement to the anti-war movement, wrote that some people are burning draft cards, others are burning bras. It was taken as literal. Re, the Miss America contestants being supported as women, note that the pageants since 1968 have done away with the crying at the end, and changed their final questions from light platitudes to deep social issue questions. And Miss America 1974 Rebecca King was a law school graduate who announced that working for feminist political goals -- including keeping abortion legal -- would be her cause. Obviously, feminists and Miss America were _not_ enemies.

I read The Feminine Mystique. She only seemed concerned with educated, upper class, white women.

I do appreciate all you work, and I am learning, thank you. How ever, the 10 commandments have nothing to do with it. There is not a single phrase that subjugate women. It was the criminal codes that Moses himself wrote, and some of those codes were already in place in those lands back then, where you can read about the ill treatment of women and the harsh laws of eye for an eye. God did not write those. Those laws were strictly written by people. As a matter of fact, Jesus told men to treat women only with love.

A Roman Catholic retired priest told me that the Holy Spirit was female which I don’t remember EVER learning through 9 years of Catholic school (2nd grade to 11th grade)!!!!!!!!!!!🙊🙉🙈🐵

even if patriarchy is natural that doesn't make it good, nature always chooses ways that seem cruel and unfair to us, we humans are very intelligent and advanced we don't have to follow nature's ways when we can come up with better ways, as clothes are better than thick body hair so partnership culture and egalitarianism are better than patriarchy.

“But muh lobsters 😭” -Jordan Peterson fans

Am I all alone thinking a matriarchy wouldn't be any better?

TLDR Christrianity, Judaism, Islam are all patriarchal as they are right now.

I’m black, indigenous African Woman , and engineer.. ( I phrased my descriptors from the context/ and lenses with which I view my own struggle in the intersectional movement ). I say thank you for explaining what I observed.. particularly with white American women.. and the voting based on demographics..l it explains how they vote, in a way I knew why, but wasn’t able to articulate. You have explained where the separation began and I am grateful.

Very informative video. I really want to show some of your videos to my daughter. We've been talking about patriarchy, the origin, values and violence of it all. She's a sensitive soul though. All the detailed descriptions of f e m i cide are important but probably too much for her at this stage...

It came from a man's fist punching a woman's face. "If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face- forever."

I am old enough to remember this time. I am glad to see that you spoke the truth. The women threw the bras away! Probably the older ones that were out of shape, too! There was also a Life or Look magazine published around that time about the changes women were making, not marrying, using birth control, etc. I also remember that there was a woman around this time, who had lots of money, and was able to fly to New York from where she lived and get an abortion. I have always had positive feelings about men, as so many have been my and our allies! I once told my late husband that he was a closet feminist! He just looked at me puzzled because he genuinely liked and admired women. My mother had to deal with this, too, in the late 1950's and early 1960's. I have also checked the "pay gap" issue that was strong for a time. This issue was even worse for African-American and Hispanic women. The loss in pay equity totaled 1.1 million over a 40 year career compared to a male making the same income. I am 72. Change on this issue is long past due! We are not going to see progress until the future president and his VP are out of office.
