Patriarchy and Gender: Exploring the Balance of Power in Heterosexual Marriages
Love, Patriarchy, Gender, and Inequality
A heterosexual relationship is defined by intimacy, sex, and romance. It is commonly believed that romantic love serves as a transformative force capable of dismantling various social barriers and fostering equality between partners. In the context of working couples, the dynamics appear to be more pragmatic. This paper will be based on housewives, and it will show how a man often takes pleasure in exerting control over his wife. However, over time, men have begun to shift this perspective. They recognize that they cannot impose their will on their wives. Consequently, they seek alternative methods to maintain hegemonic influence over them. Although women of this generation assert their independence and empowerment through social and legal rights, they still experience various forms of domination. This study aims to explore the nature of this domination and its impact on the daily lives of women. The research is grounded in fieldwork conducted in 2017.
