The root of gender opposition

First of all, the conclusion is that there is no real gender opposition.

Because in this society, men and women must cooperate to achieve the overall goal of human reproduction and development. No sex can exist and reproduce independently of the other sex. Therefore, men and women are indispensable and must cooperate and live together.

What is constantly changing is the way of cooperation, that is, the social relationship between the two sexes.

The patriarchal society is a typical dominant type. Men occupy a central position and women are in a subordinate position.

At present, with the increasing proportion of women in social life, it is necessary to change the mode of cooperation into dialogue. In other words, there is no one subject dominating another, but the real cooperation between men and women on the basis of equality wins.

But the inertia caused by the patriarchal society for thousands of years is not so easy to change. This will involve the production structure and system design at the bottom, and the discourse form and moral value at the top. Has formed a highly continuous tradition.

This tradition has even entered the level of collective unconsciousness, which will affect the behavior patterns and concepts of both men and women to a considerable extent.

On the one hand, it tries to continue the traditional dominant gender relationship, on the other hand, it tries to have a dialogue gender relationship.

Both sides are here.

So you will find a very strange phenomenon. Under the so-called "gender opposition" topic. Whether it is the dominant gender relationship or the conversational gender relationship, there are men and women among the people who support it.

There is no simple binary opposition in which men only support dominance and women only support dialogue.

So, my conclusion is as follows:

There is no absolute gender opposition, only gender cooperation.
