  男尊女卑
    性社会学术语。亦称男主女从。是 封建社会的重要道德规范。指在社会上和家庭中男子地位高于女子的制度和思想。在原始社 会,男女处于平等地位。原始社会解体过程中,随着父系家长制家庭的确立,男尊女卑现象则逐渐滋生。自奴隶社会始,男尊女卑即成为阶级剥削和阶级压迫制度的重要组成部分,并被定为法律制度和道德规范。中国封建社会中要求妇女“在家从父,出嫁从夫,夫死从子”。汉朝班固等编撰的《白虎通》中,就用阴阳、天地比附男女地位,提出“阳尊阴卑”、“夫为妻纲”,进一步论证了男尊女卑的合法性和永恒性,使之成为封建宗法统治的三纲之一。嗣后,“夫为妻纲”经过历代统治阶级的提倡、推行和封建思想家的修饰、鼓吹,男尊女卑这一宗法观念,便成了压迫和奴役妇女的枷锁。中国当今社会里废除了男尊女卑的制度,男女平等受到法律保护,并于1992年颁布了《妇女儿童保护法》。但就人类范围主流社会的男 女性别歧视来看、男尊女卑观念的消除尚待时日。
