    Patriachy Mysoginy Instuttionalised in cultures Marriages Religions and Communities?
  

*by P***M on Reviewed in India on 30 November 2023*

This is the Best Book which tries to find out about the Universal question which came into 50 percentage of Human Population i.e How One Gender Became so Dominant over another? She Read And Travelled to historical sites Talked to Researchers of different fields and Gave us the Conclusion which is Slavery ! Historically Gathering Power means Gathering People so Power Hungry Males used to capture women and turn them into Wives and Concubines, Domestic Unpaid Labour is Modern Age Slavery Many Matriachal cultures in the past got destroyed by violent attacks of foreign Men . However the Problem of Patriachy was never Unilinear it's always tried to restablished by current Political and Religious powers

    The best book I read in 2023
  

*by R***S on Reviewed in India on 28 May 2023*

There are some books whose stories remain with you for a very long time and then some books that get encrypted, making you learn astonishing new things, and unlearn even more. This book is of the latter type. I loved every single bit of this book, every piece of information and evidence from history, and I am amazed how we as humans have spent an eternity and still going on and on about some trivial things.Patriarchy has not some definite origin, it didn’t sprout out of anything one day and took over the world, rather it was a gradual process that made its way so languidly around the human civilization that it was taking us all in and we didn’t care much until we did. Historians, anthropologists, archaeologist, research scholars, sociologists, and feminists have dedicated their whole lives to getting to the point of how & when this patriarchal transition to humankind occur.It is not that patrilocal society formed without any resistance; neither is it true that only we as in the current generation are fighting against patriarchy. There was always resistance, in the 60s, among the tribal communities, and also from men. Humans are neither culprits nor victims, the real culprits are capitalization, industrialization, wars, violence, religion, and slavery and the real victims are love, empathy, care, and liberty.

    Great historical perspective

Loved the information and voice of the author. Seemed a bit disjointed and meandering, but still a good read. All men should read this book.
