        abstract = {This research paper elucidates persistent practices of patriarchy that impose specific social, cultural, economic, and moral roles on both males and females, primarily by subjugating women to the role of objects for men. Historically, the critique of the female body was perplexed by fields like psychoanalysis, which often ignores freedom and choice to women. The female body becomes a constrained and colonized territory through disciplined practices that symbolically reinforce her as an ideal woman. The aim of this research assignment is to analyze the reflection of patriarchy in the historical and contemporary times through various books, articles on patriarchy, analyses of quotations, and media.},
