- feelings of grandiosity (Men believe they are superior to women)
- search for narcissistic supply (men believe they are entitled to emotional and sexual encounters with other people beside their wife)
- gaslighting (men say they treat women as equals but they do not)
- victim blaming (when men are caught cheating or committing a sin, they blame the wife instead of taking responsibility for their actions)
- emotional witholding/stonewalling (when men in Patriarchy are confronted by their wives they say "stop nagging me"/ common misuse of a common Bible verse)
- invalidation (in Patriarchy men dismiss women as "irrational", "emotional" people)
- scapegoating (in Patriarchy men blame women for the ills of the world/"Eve did it")
- Discard (in Patriarchy older women are discarded)
- Dehumanization (in Patriarchy women are treated like sexual objects but also told to sexually repress)
- Touch deprivation/skin hunger (in Patriarchy men see a wife as an as object, they are told it's socially acceptable to be emotionally disabled)
Just curious, how much of this is Marshall? Probably all of it, if you were being honest. You have no idea how people act in a normal, healthy, loving relationship because you've never been in normal, healthy, loving relationship in your entire life. You just hook up with guys that rape you, beat you, impregnate you, and refuse to parent the resulting children. You don't have the slightest idea how people act towards each other in the real world, you seem to get all of your ideas about society and culture from trashy romance novels and cable TV. Which makes sense, seeing as how you have deliberately isolated yourself from the wider world. Both socially and geographically, seeing as how you moved to a tiny, isolated town in a rural, isolated county. TV is your only window into the world at large, so you have an incredibly distorted view of that world.
