I agree with the premises of the idea of 'stop having women be sexualized objects', fully agree on that. They are people. Living beings that have emotions, thoughts, reasons and a life of their own just like everyone else.

Though there are two concepts that I understand what you are getting at, yet I feel they are misrepresented or misunderstood (unless I'm reading it wrong), but the idea of women's sports getting paid less, usually that is based on ratings and skill-set as seen most dominantly between the NBA and WNBA.
For the 'patriarchy' idea. Well, I mean, was it really the 'patriarchy' that made or contributed to the way it is? Personally, I don't think so. I believe cultural values that have passed overtime has resulted in such things to happen like such cause and effect relations. Once abortion was legalized along with the idea of divorce being 'okay', rates of rape and sexual assault, unprotected sex and of course, abortion rose to higher levels than they were before such things were acceptable.

Patriarchy isn't just about men, but how society is worked as a whole with everyone. Same with Matriarchy and all other forms. There can never be true dominance until one group crumbles to the ground and it can't be true dominance if there are separate roles as to which each side possesses that can't be put on the same scale.
Patriarchy isn't the same as cultural values (in terms of separating the two concepts because most people seem to jumble them into the same idea). Patriarchy is based on set of mostly (keyword: mostly) characterful beliefs that are actually expected of all sides to co-exist in peace and well being for all by teaching from The Bible whereas cultural values is the idea what is deemed 'acceptable' and what 'isn't' from society itself.

Can the two overlap? Of course. How do we value which side is in the wrong or right? Who really knows?

Sorry I wrote an essay, but I just wanted to put my two cents in on this topic because I find this pretty intriguing and have been in discussions about this before with many people.

I appreciate it when boldness like this comes to terms with reality. Gives a moment for us to actually think and reflect on what we do and why.

this is really good, a few grammar mistakes. This is absolutely correct and it is disgusting.
