Patriarchy 

The social construct of todays society that describes the inequality between men and women.

-Mom, why will i get less paid than my male co-worker will?
-Because of the patriarchy, my dear.

-Mom, why will I be called a slut for having as much sex as a man, whilst the man will be called a king?
-because of the patriarchy, my dear.

patriarchy 

A society where

- men have a disproportionate share of political, economic, and social power;

- men control all systems of representation (religion, "media," literature, etc.) and use them to depict the world from their point of view and marginalize women;

- there are widely shared cultural beliefs that men are more socially valued and more competent than women at most things (e.g., Michael Conway et al., 1996; David Wagner and Joseph Berger, 1997; John Williams and Deborah Best, 1990; and Susan Fiske et al., 2002);

- women are the primary targets of gender violence and men are the primary perpetrators of gender violence;

etc.

All societies are, and always have been, patriarchies.

Those who are uneducated, miseducated, or "masculinists" = "advocates of male superiority or dominance" (Merriam Webster Dictionary Online) should at least TRY to comprehend this simple truth about the great evil aka patriarchy.

Patriarchy 

It’s a game of tennis between powerful men where they use women instead of tennis balls

“In the game of Patriarchy, women aren’t the opposing team, they’re the ball.”
- Anita Sarkeesian

Patriarchy 

Where men and horses run everything

"I'll take a high-level, high-paying job with influence, please."
"Okay you'll need at least and MBA. And a lot of our people have PhD's."
"Isn't being a man enough?"
"Actually right now it's kind of the opposite."
"You guys are clearly not doing patriarchy very well."
