Yeah such a thing could not have historically existed, but I'm just pointing out that these societies produced their own "ruin". A slave owner writing "All men are created equal" created an ideal that future generations would read and see their current state as a deviation from the ideal.

>patriarchy can be enforced to women on a basis of strength and dominance, instead of needing to rely on fake gods.
I would have to disagree. If you want members of society to fulfill certain social roles then you need traditional structures that aren't questioned. Historically, we can see many societies had a sexual division of labor out of necessity and those traditional structures likely were built around that. The industrial revolution changed that and there aren't many jobs that men can do that women can't. WWII, and war is seen as a patriarchal affair, created a necessity for women to fill roles that were previously male-dominated and the result after the war was many, both men and women, advocating for greater workplace equality. You can certainly advocate for anything, but if history isn't bending in that direction I don't see it ever coming to fruition.
