Or perhaps I misunderstood your post...
It's the Stockholm Syndrome Vic mentioned.
Ok, but isn't this experienced by the minority of people in abusive situations? It seems most of them would still want to leave.
If a religion was abusing women and treating them like prisoners, while treating men like kings, it seems like more men would want to stay than women. Sure, I guess some women would develop SS, but it doesn't seem like it would be enough of them to make so many more women want to stay than men.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
