    It's quite funny how the "we ran out of swamps to drain, forests to burn down and barbarians to kill, now the plots of land get smaller with every generation" issue naturally appeared in basically every agrarian society sooner or later. And someone (or everyone) naturally always got the short end of the stick.

    There’s actually a theory that these changes in inheritance and emphasis on households over clans were the reason for sexual attitudes becoming noticeably more conservative in the Kamakura period. In the earlier Heian period, succumbing to passion and having sex out of wedlock tickled the melodramatic, romantic sensibilities of the era, but when that started leading to convoluted family trees and bitter inheritance battles, folks suddenly turned prudish.

      It’s fictitiousness aside, the Tale of Genji is a reflection of the Heian imperial settings in which Murasaki Shikibu moved, therefore the gender mores of that time period are reflected in the way the women in ToG constantly have their boundaries pushed by the men in their lives.

      Writers don't just copy paste real life unto paper and call it a book. A story needs conflict and bad things happening to people otherwise there is no story.

      @@magnadramon0068 well then allow me to demonstrate the veracity of what I mean when I say that ToG reflects the less-than-desirable aspects of Heian masculine behaviour that actually took place in real life.
      The titular Genji is the hottest, most talented musician/poet/calligrapher at court, essentially representing the paragon of Heian aristocratic manhood in all his perfections: that is the fiction, because the actual Heian aristocratic man who matched Genji’s level of artistic accomplishment was almost certainly one in a million.
      Genji also pushes the boundaries of the many women he comes across, Utsusemi, Fujitsubo, and Oborozukiyo, among others, behaviour emulated by his son, Yūgiri, and his nephew and son’s best friend, Kashiwagi. This I know to be the reality of Heian men’s behaviour from Murasaki’s diary, in which she discusses the rowdy drunkenness of the men at court, how they intruded upon women in their private quarters, and how deeply uncomfortable this made Murasaki feel.
      Murasaki, for all your observations of fictional works (which I agree with, for what it’s worth), nevertheless didn’t idealize this aspect of Heian masculine behaviour. And even if one didn’t have her diary to go by, one would nevertheless be able to extrapolate from ToG the fact that the ideal aristocratic man was artistically accomplished, but also given to a feeling of entitlement where the women in their lives were concerned.

      Also in Japan, there is no joining families. Couples must decide who gives up their (legal) family.

If a wife takes the husband's name, she is part of his family and no longer (legally) part of hers. If a husband takes the wife's name, he is no longer (legally) a member of his family.

He was honestly trying to make logical deductions and speculations a lot of the time because he was limited by the anthropology of his time. It amazes me how close his findings were to modern research. Not everything is great in that book and it is not to be read a pure fact but it still holds up as a way of analyzing man's and especially women's past.

    I'm half Alaska Native and my mother's land claim was supposed to have been passed down to me but my dad went to court to take it from me when she died because he "had to get something out of the marriage" and now I just realized that my entire life my dad complained that he didn't own land and never would despite the fact that he stole my land claim from me. He is now leaving that native land claim to his new wife who has promised that land to her white cousins kids. Yet more native land being stolen by the white people

It really shows the cultural difference between people from historic patriarchal vs matrilineal backgrounds (assuming your native culture is matrilineal, not all are). A man married into a different culture, but bc of his cultural upbringing feels entitled to take what belongs to his wife. So much so he screws his first born out of your inheritance. That isn’t a good father. You deserved better

    Since it was mentioned in this video, and i hope there are people here who are as interested in this topic as i am: Usually, at least today, women live longer than men, this may be caused by the way they live (diet, work, stress,...), or because of more "genetic redundancy" in regard of the gonosomes. But was this always this way? Childbirth can be dangerous in a time before modern medicine, it would be deadly if something went wrong, and since people back then had far more children (high child mortality rate), and women where having children early on, it seems reasonable to assume that women would die earlier than men, right?

    I was worried that this video was going to maybe be political but I am glad it is not.
    I honestly learned something and it is something that people should think about more, basically woman's rights went to the wayside due to change in society, whatever the norms that existed that gave woman a fair ground slowly changed, not out of misogyny but out of practical needs.
    In a way, that should be an important lesson, not just for woman's rights but also for all kinds of rights, in order to safe guard them you need a stable & sustainable society.

      @@mueezadam8438that’s a really good summary of how misogyny was invented I think. Limiting women’s rights across patriarchal cultures occurred in societies that had more conflict and war. It was a practical thing initially. A warlord saves a city, is made the leader temporarily, then one day one wants to make sure he and his descendants stay in power so his family is taken care of. Resources are hoarded, social classes and gender roles redefined and reinforced. Then the limitations on women is institutionalized after the crisis passed and now women HAVE to stay as a subclass and be controlled, having theirs rights and autonomy reduced to eliminated entirely, and in worst case scenarios passed around like things, which then passes down trauma to subsequent generations. The solution to solve one issue thus creates entirely new issues we’re still dealing with today
