Document Summary
America as an example of a male dominated society (heavily influenced by violence) Farther back in human history in africa men and women had equal roles. With the introduction of farming (likely introduced by women) the gender roles began to appear. Women are just as crucial to the economy and the stability of a society. In some villages you could be certain who the mother was of a child but uncertain of the father therefore the fathers stuff would be passed down to his sisters children. The middle east is a good place to look for examples of a male dominated revolution since over half the world"s population comes from cultures originating there. One historian found that she often came across the idea that the female body causes chaos in the public space. The state" and the patriarchy was created with a single man at the top (through terror) Terror is a form of mass communication.
