My only disagreement with this - is that patriarchy benefits maybe 5% of the population at the expense of the other 95%!

But yet the 5% that benefits is joined by perhaps 30% who THINK they benefit from it (even though they don’t, really.)

And we have people who are being hurt and damaged by the system fighting to protect it - because they do not know that they too, are victims.

But that not really a disagreement with you. Just a quibble about percentages. I think what you said is spot on true.
