What is the patriarchal dividend?

the patriarchal dividend is the privilege that is given to all men in a society that, openly or otherwise, favors males, maleness, or masculinity. this does not mean that all the men who benefit from this privilege are sexist, misogynistic, or gynophobic. nor does it mean that the culture/country in which they live openly embraces its patriarchal heritage (e.g. saudi arabia, afghanistan, china, and india); the patriarchal dividend even occurs in countries and cultures where women's rights are generally considered worthwhile and society at large has made conscious efforts to discourage sexism, misogyny, gynophobia, and gender typification (countries such as france, the united states, and the united kingdom). the patriarchal dividend, simply put, is the conscious (or unconscious) precedence a society places on the welfare of its males over its females, and the trend towards favoring "maleness" over "femaleness" (hegemonic masculinity).
