A Iocaste-system is a system where the mother manipulates the son to rival with the father, or to protect her against the father, in the naively erroneous belief he is causing her unhappiness, or even makes her whole life miserable.

The feminist redefinition of patriarchy as oppression, and the turning of the children against their fathers is the elaboration of the theme and plot.

The vilifying of the male sex is the consequence of the blindness for the Iocaste-system.
