~How does men’s power benefit from the myth(s) of women?

In the early years of life, women nearly had any rights or even any rights at all. Throughout many years in the world, men were the top dog, and were considered to be anything and do everything in the world. For men to benefit from myth(s) of women would be like finding out someone’s weakness. When people in the world find out how to use something to their advantage, they take it and use if against them. To think that women in today’s world were treated as if there were back then is something I can not even picture. It would almost be compared to a family’s pet dog, and I can see why men could benefit for it. Living in today’s world, women are as equal as or even better than men in a lot of ways. Now with Mrs. Clinton is the runnings for President and many other women in the government, this is a great way to so that many of the myth(s) there once was, are disappearing. Looking at a women’s point of view, I can see how many of them felt cheated from their life. A lot of the women back in time did not get the chance to live to their fullest. It would like doing something you love, but not getting the chance to do at your fullest. I am glad that the myth(s) that used to be considered towards the women are finally disappearing.
