Replying to @Rebekah agree!!! As @Jameela Jamil said…. If women we’re made to submit, we would’ve done it by now. Why would a creator submit to its creation???? No way. #women #patriarchy #men

11 hours agoEdited to

... Read moreFrom my personal experience and observations, the concept of female submission being 'natural' is often used to justify unequal power dynamics in society. When I first began questioning these norms, it became clear that submission is less about biology and more about cultural enforcement. The OCR content highlights a critical point: if female submission were natural, it wouldn't require violence and constant enforcement by patriarchal systems. In my own life, I've seen examples where submission is expected not because it's inherent, but because societal pressures and traditions demand it. For example, in some family or workplace settings, women are subtly or overtly pressured to conform to submissive roles, even when they are naturally assertive or independent. This aligns with what Jameela Jamil points out: a creator wouldn't submit to its creation. Similarly, if women were truly meant to be submissive, it would be effortless and innate, rather than needing systemic reinforcement. It's empowering to challenge these outdated notions and embrace equality and mutual respect. Recognizing that submission is not a default condition allows women and men alike to redefine relationships and social structures in healthier, more balanced ways. Embracing this understanding helps break down harmful stereotypes and promotes a more just society for everyone.
