These reasons for patriarchy are independent on place, time and culture:
1) The creation order:
A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet. For Adam was formed first, then Eve.
1Tm 2:11
2) Because Eve was deceived, not Adam:
And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner.
1Tm 2:14
3) Woman was created for man, not man for woman:
"Neither was man created for the sake of woman, but woman for the sake of man."
1Cor 11:9
4) Women are weaker (so they need leadership and protection of men)
1Pet 3:7

But the topic of the thread is not this one...
Thank you. These are all out of the new testament in case anyone is still stuck in Genesis.
