Innate proclivity of women is to submit to men and men's to lead women? All the women I know in my life are either very mentally independent, or are forced to tolerate the men who control their lives and choices not out of free will but because these women have their wings broken by the society and their family, ie, no proper education, no financial independence, no parental support, their younger days completely invested towards the man and his family and their kids because the man won't support raising the kid, and because the society repeatedly imposes the idea that women should forget their lives and livelihood and raise the baby, because it's their inner call and things like that; and now they have no way of getting out of the void they constantly feel inside, nothing's their own, can't even divorce the manchild and follow her passion, because society will chew the alive, and nobody's gonna give the jobs to these old women instead of the young men who have to 'provide and protect' their family.
