Patriarchal structure is very clever !

Here it is my very first writeup.

We have been the part of ‘Indian society’ , so are familiar with the phrase that ‘things don’t get digested in a woman’s stomach’ . Indeed true ! , Because s(he) is being served the food by “patriarchal structure”.
He can talk of his official work at home , but s(he) can’t talk of (he)r official work at (he)r official place (home! Though it’s unofficial) .
Patriarchal structure is very clever ! In the sense that woman keeps (he)r alignment towards the norms of patriarchy and face subordination. So , what is that in (he)r or in patriarchal structure that always binds woman like a centripetal force . No matter how much they apply force in resistance to get out of it , they really can’t??

India is full of its cultural diversity , but in common goddesses are everywhere so does the sanctioned importance of woman .Woman has been given an important role in patriarchal structure. S(he) has to perform every ritual during festivals. Our culture has so imbibed her importance that even festivals are incomplete without (he)r. But what a paradox is that , she is being denied entry to temples forget about she to get a position equal of a priest in temples. S(he) has always been a subordinated being.
There is a circle of highs and lows. During festivals (he)r importance is high , that she have to perform rituals for the sake of her husband (karvachauth) , brother(rakshabandhan) , child(baby shower) , fasts on Mondays for the husband to be etc.
And during normal days(lows) ? S(he) again conforms gender roles that are assigned to (he)r right from very little age ! Caring , household chores etc. Even on normal days she feels subdued , society has upcoming events that can keep (he)r calm and preparing for the next.

In this circle of highs and lows s(he) is not left with enough power to counter that centripetal force. That is to say women are “more member” of this patriarchal structure than the owners of this production i.e ‘man’. In this sense patriarchal structure is very cleverly designed.
To enforce patriarchy , why not man have taken the task ? Of role performances ?
Might be because they’re kept away from the taste of the food that has ‘salt’ ! So that only woman can keep saying …
“Maine aapka namak khaya hai”…!!!
