Women Abuse and what Affect Patriarchy has on it
In the basic of the traditional system of education and socialization of a gender there is a so called initial work distribution between men and women.

It gave men the right to external activity for world survey and its governance, thus he received a right of the subject of history. Meanwhile women only got a responsibility rather than a right to give birth and upbringing to children, right to take care of the family and house hold.
