The Origins of Patriarchy: Male Insecurity and Female Autonomy
Written on
Chapter 1: The Anatomy of Desire
Human females possess a unique organ dedicated solely to pleasure—the clitoris.
This biological feature has historically sparked male jealousy, leading to the establishment of patriarchy. Historical evidence indicates the existence of matriarchal and matri-focal societies where women held dominion over their own bodies and choices. For centuries, men have attempted to persuade women that their primary role is reproduction. This simplistic perspective merely masks underlying male envy.
If any gender were to be reduced to mere procreation, it would arguably be men (though I do not advocate for such a reductionist view). My intention is not to belittle men, despite the historical tendency to diminish women's identities. Instead, I wish to highlight a critical observation: male reproductive anatomy mirrors that of other species, featuring a phallus and testicles that serve both reproductive and pleasurable functions. In contrast, the female anatomy includes a clitoris solely for pleasure, alongside a vagina for reproduction. Thus, it is unjustifiable for men to categorize women’s sexual organs solely in reproductive terms.
It is troubling that, for millennia, men have succeeded in convincing women that their sexual anatomy was somehow inferior and limited to reproduction. This belief has been used to rationalize barbaric practices like female genital mutilation, which aims to eliminate women’s clitorises and reinforce a distorted, reductionist view of female sexuality. Such acts are attempts to confine women to a shadowy existence regarding their own sexuality, robbing them of their right to pleasure and autonomy.
This repression of female sexuality is also evident in the disregard and antagonism shown by male medical professionals and biologists towards the study of female anatomy. There has been a conscious effort to overlook and undereducate about women's bodies. The prevailing fear was that a more honest exploration of female anatomy would compel men to confront the root of their jealousy. This jealousy has perpetuated centuries of women’s oppression and marginalization.
Ultimately, the narrative of female subjugation and the patriarchal dismissal of women's anatomy reveal a profound male insecurity. The autonomy of female sexuality poses a threat to the patriarchal framework, prompting societies to seek control over and diminish it. As we illuminate this reality, we can begin to challenge and dismantle these damaging beliefs, empowering women to reclaim their bodies and their lives.
Do not misinterpret the ongoing attacks on abortion and birth control as mere coincidence. These are calculated assaults on women’s sexual autonomy orchestrated by patriarchy and its proponents.

The first video titled "Are men inferior to women? Let's check the data | FACTUAL FEMINIST" critically examines the data surrounding gender dynamics and male insecurity.
The second video, "The Candace Owens Show: The Lies of Modern Feminism," discusses prevalent misconceptions within modern feminist discourse and how they relate to patriarchal narratives.
