Critically examine the assertion that patriarchy should be blamed for gender inequality in ghana
dlinn [17]

Patriarchy is a social system that places men as beings who hold all authority and power within a society, leaving women submissive and devalued in the face of any social situation.

Patriarchy is largely responsible for spreading concepts that claim that women are weak, submissive and should not receive the same civic and social privileges as men. All over the world, women receive few opportunities for education, employment, security and fair wages, which causes strong social and economic inequality between men and women.

Although this is a behavior that is present throughout the world, in Ghana patriarchy not only place women in lower positions within their families and within society, these social inequalities allow a series of violence to be done against women and that there are few ways to defend themselves both physically and judicially. In addition, patriarchy in Ghana influences the concept that women should marry and be mothers early, which means that girls get married as teenagers and are deprived of studying, working and following their dreams, being totally dependent on family men.
