A structure of society that privileges men over women, in all domains. This includes limiting the citizenship and voting rights of women, restricting women’s right to an abortion, demanding a strict definition of gender roles, empowering husbands over wives, as well as justifying and excusing a wide range of abuses against women – sexual assault, domestic violence, prostitution, widow burning, foot binding, etc.
