Yeah, shame culture is weird. When you’re responsible for the shame or honour of others it does become isolating. You gotta keep secrets if your kids or husband screw up within a very insular community which is a big risk for shame in itself. You tend to bear the punishments as well. Your child starts a fight and you don’t tell your husband? Well he heard about it and now you and your child are punished. You didn’t keep the fight a secret? Pfft still need to be punished cause you raised a kid that did a shameful thing!

The misogyny works for the men and they don’t want that to go away. They’re always the last to let go of misogyny.
