Patriarchy can be defined as the
systematic organization of the
power of the male/masculine
over the female/feminine.
As a ‘power over’ system,
patriarchy is rooted in the belief
that there are two ‘natural’ sexes,
with the male/masculine being
naturally stronger and more
powerful than the female/feminine.
In order to to make systemic change.
We need to work with and build on other
models of power:

• the ‘power to’ challenge injustice and


inequalities and the ‘power with’
Patriarchy and Genders

The patriarchal system trains us to believe that the world is


divided into two genders only.

Patriarchy insists that men are or should be masculine and


women are or should be feminine, and that these two groups of
people, and characteristics of masculine and feminine, are
clearly identifiable, different and mutually exclusive.

It affects many aspects of life, from
political leadership, business
management, religious institutions,

ownership, right down to the family
home where men are considered to
be the head of the household.

3.4 Benefit and Cost of Male Privilege
• What is Privilege?
Men interest from Patriarchy
The male is blessed with political
leadership, moral authority, social
privilege, business management,
religious institutions, economic systems
and property ownership, right down to
the family home where men are
considered to be the head of the
household
Men role in women rights
Men interest from gender justice
there's evidence
that men's life
satisfaction is
greater in more
gender-equal
nations, including
improvements in
men's mental health.

What Can We Conclude About this Module


Envisioning a World without Patriarchy
Will The World become Utopia or Anarchy

• Imagine a world where people of all gender identities are equal regardless of
ethnicity, race, gender, sex, geographical location, and economic status.
• Imagine a world where violence is not acceptable and where all individuals can
fully exercise their human rights, and live their lives with dignity and peace.
• Share visions of what a world without patriarchy could look like.
• Identify common values for an equal, peaceful, and non-patriarchal world.

In Conclusion What Can We Conclude About this Module
Answer:
I do believe in this vision but I don’t believe in all humanity.

What were Thomas Hobbes 3 main ideas?

These three things—competition, distrust, and the desire for glory—throw humankind into a state
of war, which is for Hobbes the natural condition of human life, the situation that exists whenever
natural passions are unrestrained.

Hobbes also considers humans to be naturally


vainglorious and so seek to dominate others and
demand their respect

In Conclusion What Can We Conclude About this Module
Answer:
The third fundamental feature of human nature is egoism.

This is primarily linked to the pursuit of survival of the self, which is a basic form of egoism.
Egoism, however, is not only about biological survival but also about the attainment of life
goals and the opportunity to express one's authenticity.

In my perspective, if there is no “patriarchy”, there will


be another form that many in the future will consider as
“oppression”.
Maybe “A.I” took control of humanity and do human farm.
