      Patriarchy doesn't mean 'assholes exist.' It means a system of society in which men have all ruling power & women are denied access to it.

      Is it still a patriarchy if men have vast majority of power? (seen in politicians, CEOs etc)

      No, not if women can access these positions but choose to do so in much lower numbers

      Thanks - can we be sure that it's all choice? I guess I should study up more on this issue.

      That;s the question. No official barrier. Society is not set up to exclude them but sexist discrimination could still exist tho illegal

          Face that it's illegal means we don't live in a patriarchy. The question of whether discrimination exists needs examining rigorously.

          Right actually. You don't want to question whether discrimination exists? I agree with Helen. There are many of us who agree with Helen.
