The problem is modern western ppl tend to combine them. The whole point of the "trad movement" of the last 70ish years is that the man is in charge and the women serve the men. Along with the "wife bad" jokes are a lot of other ingrained like "women's work" that's looked down upon even though it's just as valuable as "man's work". Then you throw in the the Tates of the world and its easy to throw them both out together

@Benevolent_Fafnir well beating your wife was still legal until last century in places, but i don't think that's a thing that matriarchal societies had. Idk, it's not commonly mentioned, unlike LEO famously still beating their wives. It does seem to get conflated a lot in loving memory. Also, for the longest time women couldn't own property or even testify in court. Oh! Millions of women can't drive or even go shopping by themselves. It does seem to be linked in recent times.... it seems that modern patriarchy seems to isolate and control women, where its popular, rather that protect the mother of the children and the homemaker. Just a subtle difference there
