Patriarchy Hoax Opinion

So I have been reading that women were traditionally been opressed by men. Although to some context it is true. Whenever I think about it becomes hazy and I can't digest it. Like my ancestors and many more worked so hard all their lives so that we in present can have a better future, just to be called oppressors in modern times. Also for marraiges were women weren't treated fairly there were also men who got women like that. So it's basically comes down to like there are good people and bad people. Also now I see many countries that have baised laws have their birth rates below 2.1 . Breaking the family unit apart is the best way to break us apart in future. I guess many of us had a decent family to teach us things from both perspectives. I can't speak on this way more although I guess it would be mundane. I don't mean to come out as offensive to anyone just my thoughts and want to know about it from different perspectives.

Edit 1 :- Thank you everyone for sharing your perspective I'll try to look into each one. Also again a heartful thank you for letting me now the insights. Try to keep a unbiased view. Wish you a great time ahead. Edit 2 :- I'll be closing this thread after few days. Got much needed insight .

I don't believe men put women down per day, it was just economical circumstances, life was hard, back then people worked more hours for less and knowing where the next meal would come from was sometimes a mystery, these days we worry more about how whether we will eat cake or sip a frappuncino 

Life was different, procreation is difficult, humanity is getting coming around, step by step

can you explain why women need to be raised up by men if they were never put down in the first place

Aha, I was just stating that if anyone thinks they been put down(I don't believe that, it was life was just different), then I agree to have both on an eye to eye level, equality and all that.

I hope this clarifies
