      I grew up in the suburbs in Idaho with some pretty intense patriarchy culture. For example, I was explicitly told that women's purpose was to have children, and it was implicitly assumed I would go to college, find a man, and use my college degree to homeschool my children.

      I was told that women were good at emotions, and men were good at logic. I was told that women needed to be loved, but men were the ones who needed respect. I was taught that a woman's job was to learn to submit to the orders of her husband.

      As a kid, my parents moved. I asked my Mom why she was moving when she didn't want to, and she said, "It's not my choice. Your father is the head of the family and my role is to obey his decisions."

      I used to cry myself to sleep asking God why He hadn't let me be born a boy. I was so upset that I was the weaker gender with emotions that 'overcame' me. For several of my teenage years I cried approximately once a year because I wanted to prove that I wasn't just a weak woman.

      Women weren't allowed to hold positions of authority over men in the church. My father once walked out of a bible study when a woman came to stand at the pulpit.

      Obedience was stressed above all else. We were told that the relationship between God and Men was analogous to the relationship between Men and Women, and that men's role was to protect, and women's role was to obey.

      Once I said I didn't want kids - that I didn't get the purpose of school if I was going to be a homeschooling housewife, and that I wanted to go learn and do things instead, and my parents got upset and told me I was selfish for not giving myself to my future children.

      I bought into it. I was prepared. I practiced submitting my desires constantly so I could be a good future wife. Likewise, the boys around me were being groomed to be leaders, in their mens-only Bible studies.

      For years, even after leaving that world, I considered myself inferior - less intelligent, less driven, less brave, with submission beaten into me since infancy. It's taken a long time to see myself as equivalently capable, and I still have a long way to go.

      But I don't just blame the men - in every aspect the women around me were supporting the structure. It took me a long time to realize that this wasn't one gender oppressing the other - that by viewing it this way I was treating women as much as children as everyone else did.

          is that a denomination? I've never heard of it. I was thinking you were mormon, but that wiki page doesn't list mormon anywhere.

          While different trends are still likely to emerge among men and women on average if social pressures were entirely nonexistent, we must endeavor to leave biases about individuals behind. Aggregate data does not imply uniformity.

          This religious and cultural practice is perverse and disgusting in the modern world. It is utterly wrong to raise any child, boy or girl in this way at any point in your life. I know you just a bit outside of work, and for someone of such an exceptional intellect to be raised

          This way is basically criminal. You are extremely fortunate that your incredible mind allowed you to rebel and break away. The men in this culture are primarily responsible for this terrible cultural practice. Women are complicit but have almost no power in the system.

          it says there that women are supposed to be of "equal status". but it's no equal status if they're seen as weaker and always have to obey to men, don't you think?
