Consensus reality is a social construct, and nowhere is this clearer than in gender. Whoever has the social power to enforce their beliefs on others decides reality. This will continue as long as we have powerful groups, and/or the construct of reality

Yes, and I agreed with you except in two things. We shouldn't take it as the whole reality because there are other paradigms/frames living at the same time, and we shouldn't name things after this dominance in academia or academia-like discourse because knowledge is supposed to strive for the maximum impartiality possible.
