Female subordination: Difference between revisions

Women's '''subordination''' refers to the practice of treating women as lesser beings which is common across cultures and history and it is often desired by men, but also at least by some women as evidenced by the prevalence of [[rape#Rape_fantasies|rape fantasies]], [[rape#Rape_baiting|rape baiting]], [[hybristophilia]], [[scelerophilia]], [[hypergamy]], [[Sex drive#Female_passivity|masochism]], Stockholm syndrome and a desire to be 'conquered' and dominated, which are near-exclusively female phenomena. This, of course, does not mean that women ought to be subordinated, that they are lesser human beings or second class citizens, and the prevalence such practices may be a mere artifacts of ancient, harsher ecologies. But nonetheless, the constancy of this phenomenon suggests there may be an [[evolution]]ary basis for it that is worth investigating.
