Exploring the concept of the State of Nature as articulated by Hobbes, the essay draws parallels between sexual dynamics and the dilemmas of societal order. It argues that the resulting anarchic environment necessitates new forms of legitimizing authority. Additionally, the paper examines various cultural and ideological perspectives on gender and family, seeking to address the question of authority and its justifications. This analysis highlights the interplay of psychological, sub-cultural, and cultural factors that can be leveraged for political purposes.
