A World without Patriarchy

What would a society look like if everyone was equal? To me, I think the biggest paradigm shift towards equality would almost certainly have to begin by eradicating forces of oppression, mainly the Patriarchy system that so many societies govern by. There is not a single day that goes by where forces of this system of oppression limit one’s potential, and to that matter, one's quality of life. During a short politics briefing with political activist Roland Martin, President Barack Obama said it best when he mentioned that; "A society is only as strong as it's most vulnerable citizens".

Uprooting maladaptive thinking such as; the infamous Sexism's, Ageism's, and Racism's of the world would slowly, but surely dissipate into a new society where most people strive towards finding common grounds, not dividing factors. This is an idea of what I consider a "Perfect Utopia". Will society in general ever come to this consensus? I surely hope so. What purposes does one have to follow a power structure that serves to oppress others, especially women? Progress into the future can become stagnant when people refuse use better judgment, especially when it comes to others. Throughout the ages of time, some of the greatest inventors, pioneers, and innovators were women of all nationalities, so in my Utopia there would be none of the; completely discrediting or refusing opportunity to others

 

Everyone as equals will be the governing body within my perfect utopia.
