The real root cause is competition among males, which Mother Nature saw fit to impose on men, NOT Patriarchy. Patriarchy is only a very recent consequence of humanity's flawed attempt to compensate for this.
Feminism and its refusal to recognize or accept this is based on the fact that women do not understand how mate competition affects men, much less the fact that Patriarchy did not cause this. Male violence, war and sex crimes all stem from something Nature imposed on men, and thus the real root to ending male violence, war and sex crimes is to put an end to the NATURE-IMPOSED demand that men compete for women.
Maybe mainstream feminism should spend more time talking about how to make mating a less competitive sport where losing costs men (and not women) EVERYTHING. Maybe if we can do that without letting the Patriarchy and its subjugation of women back to the cultural table we can solve the whole male violence problem.
Then maybe we can concentrate on power dynamics, which again is the bedrock beneath Patriarchy and corrupts women as well as men.
Hegemonic masculinity and Patriarchy aren't the cause of male aggression or all the hell that stems from that.But new research suggests that sexual competition for mates keeps populations healthy, free of disease and genetically diverse.
"Almost all multicellular species on earth reproduce using sex, but its existence isn't easy to explain because sex carries big burdens, the most obvious of which is that only half of your offspring - daughters - will actually produce offspring,” said lead researcher Prof Matt Gage, from the University of East Anglia School of Biological Sciences.
“Why should any species waste all that effort on sons? An all-female asexual population would be a far more effective route to reproduce greater numbers of offspring.
"Our research shows that competition among males for reproduction provides a really important benefit, because it improves the genetic health of populations.” Charles Darwin first suggested the idea of ‘sexual selection’ in which males compete for reproduction and females choose. It is why in the animal kingdom males are often far more brightly coloured than females, and partake in elaborate courtship rituals.
