Patriarchy, the system
Patriarchy is the system of society or government in which men hold the power and women are largely excluded from it.
However according to Allen some men are defensive when it comes down to patriarchy as they are all tend to be seen as oppressive , which is not the case .
Allen also described society as patriarchal and associate actions such as mens violent actions against women to it . It is also believed than men are the most important people as they do the more important things according to the system .
This then leads to how it affects socialization and social systems . It is said that we humans are the ones that make social systems happens .
social system is the patterned network of relationships constituting a coherent whole ,that exist between individuals, groups, and institutions. It is the formal structure of role and status that can form in a small, stable group.
Being the fact that people can make the system they have the ability to change the system differently.
The dynamic between people and the social system represents a basic sociological view of the world at every level of human experience.
In my conclusion Patriarchy is a lived system; it is a framework that people use to justify male superiority over women and it is one which survived through numerous social, cultural and political changes over the last several centuries. Although the roles of men and women have radically changed over the turn of the century, it is still inevitable to have various gender related issues .
