Older does not mean just older generations or parents have authority over children, older siblings have as much authority over younger ones, that parents have over them. Thus, an older brother such as myself, can pass all the work parents pushed on me, on my younger brother and do nothing as he does all the work.
Women are subordinated to men, sometimes it depends on generation, so wife is subordinated to husband but not to male children. Other times any male takes precedence over a female, no matter the age. This way women are forced to do almost all of actual work in such a system.
Broadly speaking in its traditional form this system often not only works but create social harmony of sorts. Women are naturally submissive so pushing all work on them solves pretty much every social issue and conflict within family.
The problem come when someone try to create a mix between this and western system. For example, equalise women with men while at the same time keeping the age seniority intact. System where siblings are treated equally, but parents enjoy generational authority is another such perversion of Asian system that does not work.
A system where everyone simply pushes job down the chain of command could only work if there is someone at the bottom who will do all that and will not ditch the whole shit due to obvious reasons. Women are one such people who value, sex, community and being approved more than personal benefits and status, that is why one can push work on them. Without it the system will not work.
Any system falls off when someone fails to get the rewards, they are due. The more valuable the person is the more rewards they can expect. Both of my parents had to learn it hard way, when I ditched them after they lost control of the money that held the family together in 90s. You cannot distribute the treasure to you key supporters if you do not have the treasure. However, you are double stupid if you think they will not leave or replace you, if you do not give them the treasure. Keys have to get their rewards.
Equal siblings and genders but entitled parents system eventually produce generational struggle for power. Grown up younger generation eventually seek to overthrow the older generation by force, take their place and rule for their own interest, leaving older generation to die. Periodic revolutions and other forms of struggle for power, followed by a period of relative peace is a symptom of such system.
For example, war in Ukraine is happening because Zelenski and his administration is one generation younger than Putin and his administration.
Immigration of young people to the West to avoid their parents is also a typical strategy.
That happens because this system fails to adequately reward young man and puts undue burden on them, forcing them to seek ways to remove that yoke off their neck.
Its fundamentally misandrist and wrong.
Mainland China where communist won and introduced communist feminist, mixing it with traditional Asian age authority system. In practice that put women in more privileged position than men. Young men are the main victims of such system; they are burdened with not only their families but their wives as well.
Aside from the fact that it is downright abuse and misandry, it creates all sort of irregularities that tear society apart.
Selective abortion is one such thing. Parents do not want a girl because PRC's wild mixture of feminism and traditional agism makes girl worthless. Thanks to feminism she is no longer a servant to the husband and the family, but at the same time she cannot continue the family in the same way as man can.
The result is that China has a lot more men than women. Men cannot find a wife as there are not enough women and women use their scarcity to play men against each other in dating market, extracting a lot from a potential suitor,
That is not all, sooner or later men will realise that they are screwed by the broken system, the CCP has created and will demand solution. A revolution is not out of question.
Internationally a mainland Chinese girl does not have good prosects either. Western men want submissive wives, and Asia is a common source of such wives. However, that only applies to traditionally raised Asian women and not to a mainland feminist one.
