Does patriarchy cause violence to women?

1) the patriarchy doesnt exist. 2)The overwhelming majority of victims of violence in the world are men.

Therefore even if you believe it exist, the answer is not only no, but if anything it appears to actively protect women from violence.

I refuse to engage in any kind of intellectual discourse which uses the term “patriarchy”.

Feminism hasn’t stopped any violence that women lie about. Violent crime, outside of certain areas and groups, have cratered in the US yet feminists keep lying like they live in the Congo.

First, feminism is about money and power. They have to keep lying about violence and rape because they want money and reality prevents them from getting it.

Second, it’s politics. If they really wanted to stop violence and rape they’d arm every woman with guns, concealed carry, etc. but that would solve the problem and empower women which they absolutely do not want, and their anti-gun masters who fund them make recommending guns incorrect politics.

This is ironic because many feminists own guns, but feminists don’t care about women. Women are human sacrifices to make them rich.

If it existed in the Western world, sure.

In any relationship where there are non trivial obstacles to leaving the relationship for one partner, and that partner has little recourse in case of abuse then abuse has higher likelihood of happening. That goes both ways and abuse can take many forms.

In an actual patriarchal society (i.e. one where women have restricted or no access to education and jobs, and where the legal system grant their husband some form of authority over them) women are under these conditions so most likely there is a higher likelihood of abuse.

AFAIK none of the western countries have formal patriarchies. At best (worst?) they have remnants of it through social norms. Which may still create these conditions but it should be the exception rather than the norm.

i think a lot of feminists complain about the competence hierarchies and how they got corrupted by power...

mainly in the industrial age conservatives created family structures which did lets say paternalize women... by feminist definition conservatism "specially gender roles in a family" is patriarchy... that said feminists tend to overlook how many women "specially conservatives" followed or supported this by their free will and still do today... idk to gender various issues seems to be disengenious at best...

upbringing of children, parental surrender, consent and the connected working conditions are the foundation of our economy and its workforce...

plutocracy or oligarchy would be more fitting for republics...

Feminists are responsible for many dead women each year. Why do I claim this? Because when women were provided with safe houses and other help to escape violence, they started killing a bit fewer partners. As feminist are responsible for men not getting same help to escape violence, and have in fact made sure violent women can inflict even more damage, they are directly responsible for all the deaths that could have been prevented if men were offered same level of help to escape violent and abusive women.

The majority of scholars, historians, and sociologists agree that patriarchy does exist. Patriarchy has been historically prevalent in many cultures. Sure, it's gotten better, but there are still bits and pieces.

For example, girls/women in some areas receive less education than boys/men.

To answer the question in the title more directly, yes.

I won't help you with your school paper or whatever. Having strong men in society raising the next generation of strong men protects women from more violence than otherwise.

No. It doesn't exist.

I think feminism did help originally however it went way too far. Nowadays feminism is more about female superiority than equality.

No. You can't have a functioning Patriarchy without heterosexuality. Patriarchy is largely about flourishing families producing productive members of society, which the Church as heavily a part of helping to maintain. This means a heavy focus on male and female relationships, which is driven by our biological natures.

There's nothing violent about a society that wants good men to find good women, and good women to find good men, and build with each other.

The Patriarchy is violent towards gay women, and gay men, as it makes it difficult for them to flourish in society. And that's where the push against Patriarchy is really coming from.

Patriarchy is literally supported gynocentrism
