Is patriarchy but an island on a gynonosphere?

At one time perhaps we were a patriarchy but that has not been the case for the past 50 years.

  • I don't even know how the hell to pronounce that last word.

  • I agree we aren't really a patriarchy anymore. There are still inequalities and imbalances but to blanket label modern Western society as a "patriarchy" is too reductive.

  • I don't know that it's even a real word, but if it is, it would be pronounced something like "guy-NON-a-sphere".

  • I'm sure it isn't. Trying to pronounce hurts my mouth.
