Expecting people to be better, and then seeing that they're not going to be better, is just like repeating the same abusive patterns that were programmed into patriarchal family systems. Children are forced to go along with this stuff as kids, and then they have to choose whether they want to keep on repeating those patriarchal patterns as adults, or not. If you got more rewards from the patriarchy for your role in the system, you're probably less likely to want to change. Some people might want change, but a lot of people are probably still not going to want to change when being as comfortable as possible with the way things are is the priority.
