Correct Answer: A system that values men more than women


Solution : The correct answer is A system that values men more than women.

In a Patriarchal society, men dominate and make all major decisions while women have little to no say. On the other hand, a Matriarchal society values women over men and gives them more decision-making power. In ancient Vedic times, women had significant status and were actively involved in decision-making. However, as time passed and wars broke out, women’s decision-making power decreased, leading to a shift towards a patriarchal society.
