Father was superior to the son.
Husband was superior to wife.
Older brother was superior to younger brother.
Ruler was superior to subject.
If the ones who were superior behaved sincere and genuine to others it was likely for those who were inferior to be obedient.

Confucius made it clear that education was the key to moral betterment. Language,literature, history, philosophy and ethics had to do with practical government issues.
Confucianism was portrayed by Chinese culture.
"Let a woman modesty yield to others... Always let her seem to tremble and to fear... The she may be said to humble herself before others.. To guard carefully her chastity... to choose her words with care. to wash and scrub filth away... with whole- hearted devotion to sew and to weave to love not to gossip and silly laughter in cleanliness and order to prepare the wine and food for serving guests. These may be called the characteristics of womanly work." Meaning women had no say but to serve. They had no form of speech.
They influenced young girls to get education this didn't mean they were equal to men but it was to prepare them to serve their husband when the time came.
