I agree Kay. BTW, the Christian Patriarchy movement (quiverers, or something like that) has noticed the contradictions and advocate therefore a full-blown return to the era before the Industrial Revolution when women were home and obedient. But here’s what they have not thought about: the women may have been home, but they contributed financially, which is not true of the modern Patriarchy arrangement. I.e. then the woman was important and a man had to marry if he wanted to survive, but the modern arrangement has eliminated the financial aspect and demands obedience without the balancing act of both contributing financially and the presence of servants, which used to raise the wife’s status. No wonder then that the daughters have had to fill the gap since the wife, overworked with multiple children and without the domestic help her greatx10-mother had, is not able to serve her husband the way he wants to be served.
