TL;DR- The concept of the patriarchy is a result of the AF/BB dynamic of interest in women.
Body: We've all observed how feminism is essentially unraveling our culture here in the West. We see how women scream for more authority in the workplace and in school, and in the meanwhile we see that they simply do not do as good a job at leading as men do. This is not sexist, because men evolved for this role. Women did not.
There is no social conditioning to make men feel as though women are inferior. In a way, the statement doesn't even make sense. Men and women evolved with very different priorities in mind; men evolved with the role of provider, and women evolved with the role of nurturer. To say that one priority is more important than the other is nonsense. Gender roles are in fact a thing based in biology, but each role is as important as the other, despite being contrasted. We will never be detached from the way our minds are programmed out of gender, because we are human.
The idea that gender roles are false may (and I do emphasize "may" here) come from the way our idea of knowledge was created. The Greek Eleatic idea of knowledge was that it is the way to divinity, and that divinity (our fullest realization as sentient beings) is outside the scope of basic human needs. It influenced the Judeo-Christian idea that active abstinence from any sexual pleasure is the way toward godhood.
Why do you think Judeo-Christian religions are so male-oriented? The role of men as leaders requires men to give up our own sense of self, our own sense of desire, so that we could reach goals very far out of reach from our egocentric mentality. This goes back to the way ancient Egypt was maintained, although their ideas were far different from those of the Eleatics. However, the two cultures seemed to have influenced the development of Christian and Jewish mystery schools in their own ways.
Now we come to business and school, staples of the first world. Business is gender neutral; it is a stabilized extension of the wilds from whence we came (think "concrete jungle"). It is where resources can be reaped. Likewise, school is an extension of the old methods of teaching our young how to thrive in whatever environment they lived in, and it is also gender neutral. Just like the wilds, men are naturally going to be the leaders in those worlds, especially in business...and yet, there is no need for physical strength in business or school, something that men used to be important for. Perhaps feminists are basing their approach off of that notion, especially when considering that our ideas of divinity knowledge and the human endeavor to attain it are outside the scope of basic human needs and functions, and thus outside of gender roles.
But we fail to acknowledge one thing: that men and women have very different psychological developments based in gender. And we as men have been socially conditioned to believe that this is not true. Women feel that they don't need men since we have created a world outside the realm of basic human functions and gender roles. This change in our social foundations is far too soon for the female psyche to have evolved with such low regard towards men; there simply has never been a chance for women to express their feelings until now, as we have moved from a culture based in exercising physical faculties to one that exercises mental faculties. To women, men are absolutely worthless without our resources, and they have always felt this way. Once their reliance on us has waned, they will kick us to the curb. Far too many of them already have.
I read about a TV show in TRP in which men and women were placed on separate islands, where they were given tools and food. The women ate all the food and started yelling at each other, while the men built civilization for themselves (they even had to help the women out before things got too out of hand). Clearly, if women were in charge of maintaining our social structure through business and school, it would all go to shit. And guess what? That is exactly what is happening in the feminist movement. They cannot keep their hands off of the resources we make for ourselves and for them. They're trying to eliminate men and their needs for us to obtain their resources.
Sound familiar? The concept of AF/BB doesn't just exist in interpersonal relationships between the sexes. It exists on a metaphysical level, a level that is rooted in the collective efforts of men to maintain our world, where the mind is more important than body.
The truth is that there is no detachment between the mental and physical, and thus knowledge and the sciences are indeed intimately tied to human functions and gender roles, something the Greeks did not agree with. Schools based in STEM are male, and schools based in, say, psychology, are female. This is why genders gravitate more toward those respective fields, and this is why feminists are not upset about what they say they are upset about. Feminism is a collective Machiavellian attempt aggrandized to a global level.
Feminists are whining about nothing at all except for their own attempts to eliminate the role of men in our world. Do not let them deceive you.
Edit: a word
Edit 2: replaced "divinity" with "knowledge," 5th par.
