12. One thing that people learned

was not to mess with the Irish woman & the Italian woman because they "ran the household", probably because the men were always starting wars and fighting in them, leaving the women to handle everything else. I won't even get into the black woman!

It was passed on from mother/grandmother/sister/aunt to daughter.

This is probably why women were subsequently infantilized and objectified due to the disconnect by men, from the reality of what was actually going on within a supposed "patriarchal world", and they needed to keep the patriarchy supreme.
