Patriachy and its malcontents

Some laud patriachy but its record is not salutary.It is a sign of primitivism and cultural backwardness.Islamic societies are essentially patriachal.Women walk so many steps behind their menfolk.They are subject to sexual abuse and horrendous genital mutilation.They have to cover themselves from head to toe,worship separately,be educated separately,sometimes not even allowed to be educated at all.They are baby incubators and any contact with the outside world is severly delimited.They shall not drive cars.If they are unfaithful they can be stoned to death.

Mr S who is an advocate of patriachy once boasted on air that when his wife was wanting a separation and was going to visit her female friends he physically prevented her from leaving by dragging her by her hair back in to the house.When a friend visited him in a caravan he was having an altercation with his wife and said at one point if you do not shut hp I'll knock your teeth down your throat.His wife said: 'this is the man who preaches love peace and understanding on the radio!

Such is the way of patriachy and few with asny sense of decency would be promulgating it in the 21st century or any other for that matter.
