“There have been viable women-run societies before.”
And matriarchal societies can work just fine within their cultural contexts, but the “more peaceful” myth may be exactly that.
Historical examples of women leaders from Catherine the Great to the Tru’ng Sisters to Margaret Thatcher tells us that women leaders are just as capable of fighting wars, stirring thigs up and expanding empires as men. Modern examples of women leaders in business suggests the same. These are only a few examples.
There never has been any such thing as a matriarchal society. Where do you people get this stuff?
