#newblogpost: Overcoming patriarchal cultural norms and traditions⁠ ⁠ Patriarchal norms are common throughout the world. Patriarchy is defined as a system of society or government in which the father or eldest male is head of the family and descent is reckoned through the male line or a system of society or government in which men hold the power and women are largely excluded from it. [1] The Greek root word literally means ‘the rule of the father’. ⁠ ⁠ Degrees of patriarchal behaviour vary from complete control of a woman’s actions and behaviours to unconscious biases in relatively equal societies where outdated traditions can unknowingly favour men and/or be degrading towards women. In some of the strictest cultures men rule and women are limited in their behaviours and are under guardianship (control) by an appointed male; women can’t do much without the permission (sometimes official written permission!) of said male. This is common in a few parts of the world, but even in the most ‘gender-equal’ countries, there is still an imbalance, and no single country in the world has yet to achieve true gender equality. [2] In all societies, underlying unconscious gender biases are weaved throughout our behaviours, traditions, roles, and our religions. By identifying and addressing these harmful norms, we can begin to dismantle them and empower future generations to achieve and experience true gender equality. ⁠ ⁠ Read all about overcoming patriarchal norms and behaviours on my blog - link in bio⁠ ⁠ I'd love to know what you think - let me know in the comments below ⁠ ⁠ Photo by claudio schwarz on #Unsplash⁠ ⁠ #smashthepatriarchy #genderequality #feministischerstreik #frauenstreik #bloggersofinstagram #bloggers #patriarchysucksbecause #patriarchy #nomeansno #fuckpatriarchy #feminism #feminist #feminisme #smashthepatriarchyandchill #frauen #abajoelpatriarcado #patriarcado #timesup #respectwomen #equalityforall #equalrights #march4women #fuckthepatriarchy #girlsrights #unconsciousbias
