In the world of Arianne, male children were sent to schools that taught them to be submissive and obedient, while female children were sent to schools that taught them to be dominant and aggressive. The system had been in place for centuries, and everyone seemed to love it.
The boys were taught to be timid and weak, to never question authority, and to always do as they were told. They were taught that their only purpose in life was to serve their female counterparts, and that any disobedience would result in severe punishment.
On the other hand, the girls were taught to be strong and powerful, to take charge and never back down. They were taught that they were superior to men, and that it was their duty to keep them in line. They were encouraged to be aggressive and violent, and to never show weakness.
Despite the obvious flaws in the system, no one wanted it to change. It had become so ingrained in their culture that they couldn't imagine life any other way. Men who didn't have a mistress were ridiculed and considered useless, while women who didn't have a submissive male to serve them were seen as weak and inferior.
Public humiliation of men who didn't obey was a common occurrence, and it was seen as a way to keep them in line. Women would gather in groups and publicly shame any man who dared to disobey them, and the rest of society would look on with approval.
It was a strange world, but it was the only world they knew. And despite its flaws, they couldn't imagine life any other way.
