It's not "patriarchy", it's the collective of the social norms and pressures put in place by, perpetrated by, and maintained by, the majority of both sexes. The word implies it's males' fault society is the way it is, which is demonstrably bullshit.

I mean... No? I dont see where it would imply that its men fault. The word mean that men rule. The ODE define it by "a society, system, or country that is ruled or controlled by men" And the argument that both gender (sexes may not be the best word for what you were trying to say) are maintaining the system hold some truth, But you can t deny that men did vote in favour of the rapist in the last US election , or that it is men that are leading a war against feminism in Skorea.

Yes women enforce the patriarchy too but as i was saying men are the main enforcer.
