A system which isn't as bad as people think, the only reason why people think it's bad because feminist kept pedalling hatred towards it because somehow their movement failing is because of Patriarchy,

Thanks to Patriarchy; society, gender roles, and masculinity is born

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 Hire

A unqualified white and/or male who was nevertheless hired but are blindly confident about his “skills” and has the audacity to refer other POC employees as “diversity hire”.
Brad: Well it is so unfair that she got the promotion. She is Asian and she is a woman, she can be their diversity hire. This political correctness is insane.
You: Yeah? You are obnoxious and your work suck, you are only here because you are a patriarchy hire!

A: He doesn’t even know how to read the balance sheet! How did he got the job??
B: Well they say he has good communication skills. But we all know it’s because he is a white man so clients pay more attention when he talks. He is one of those patriarchy hires.
