The most important patriarchal institution is obviously the trad family. What isn’t obvious is that this is also the strongest. Unlike others, there is no market of substitutes or an impersonal state-based alt. Exit/voice is very weak. You cannot change families like jobs.

You saying being the strongest institution isn't obvious hints at one of the bigger political splits out there. I'd say a good part of the country intuits that the family is the most important institution while another large chunk sees no problem in making it redundant.

I have no problem making it redundant. Current importance isn’t a normative guide for me. Just a situational fact. ‘Strong’ is not the same as ‘good’.
