    Yeah. These men just think otherwise because we have no evidence of a female dominated society to even an extent approaching mildly male dominated societies. What we have evidence of happening in real life is: male dominated societies, societies that strive for gender equality, and mixed power societies (eg women control the home, men control war). Female dominated societies are a porn trope or a rhetorical device for fiction.

    Even the real life Amazons (the Scythians) were shockingly egalitarian when we look at them through accounts and evidence that wasn’t Greek stories.
