I wish I could do a poll. #asknostr do you think you can truly have a partnership in marriage? Or are we consigned to either a patriarchal or matriarchal structure in the relationship?

Patriarchal= the man leads Matriarchal= the woman leads

Partnership= decisions are shared

Partnership for me

I think the way the relationships around me have always been, had the man lead some section of their lives, the woman lead other section of their lives, so it ends up around even.

I don’t think a marriage is consigned to be either patriarchal or matriarchal by default but can be a true partnership.
