Again, it's a history thing. Yes, for many centuries China crippled its women for aesthetics, and no, Islamic cultures were never matriarchal. It's just that those periods are not all of those cultures' history. Like I said, along with where, you also have to look at when in history. In many cultures, the gender hierarchy is basically "it's complicated", with some matriarchies thrown in. While most civilizations were patriarchal, few were as oppressively patriarchal as the ones our own culture descended from and that we learn about today.

I think perhaps in the process of elaboration I lost my point a little. I was just trying to say that your comments came across as "throughout all of human history women were oppressed by the men", whether you intended it that way or not, and the anon above was objecting (as am I) because history as a whole isn't quite like that.
