How women took over during the 20th century.

​Hello Steemers,

Do you like history? Well, me nether, but let me recap some important points to understand better the social dynamics.

At the end of the 19th century we saw a big change in the society. Thanks to the industrial revolution people moved from the countryside to the urban areas and men started to work in factories instead farms.

Women were more close to their children than ever and sons could not grew up close to a male figure like before.
That brought a generation of guys solely raised by mothers, while the male figure has been diminished.
The educational system changed too, bestowing full authority to the women, who have been entrusted with the job of teaching the social rules, how to behave, how to treat a girl, how to win a woman and even how to be a men.

Moreover the feminist movement of the 60’ and 70’ alleged the uselessness of the man, submitting and belittling his dominant figure, accusing of machismo and sexism.

In this way guys learned to treat a woman like a princess, buying her flowers, pleasing her the best they can, giving her presence, paying the bill and wait till she fell in love.

The harder you try, the more you will be loved.
If you always show her love, your bond will be indissoluble.

That’s what we have been taught. Right?

Then how come many women cheat on their man, many couples break up?
Many men feel like walking on eggs when they talk to their girl, they say yes just to avoid fights, they feel like she wears the pants.
I bet you already might know the answer. Let’s talk about it in the next article.
