An interesting study you may want to research for yourself is how males form packs, much like wolves, and build structures where they prey on the weak. Gangs are a perfect example of this. Young men roam in packs and commit violent crimes. Organized crime is another example, as crime families are formed to extort from the powerless using fear. And of course there are Dictatorships where men use fear and intimidation to bully entire nations into submission. These are all examples of extremism within a patriarchal structure.

Naturally, most men are law-abiding and good-natured. But the dark side of the male nature can and will abuse the weaker. That is the Darwinian theory of the stronger preying on the weaker, and in many cultures women are considered weaker, thus they are preyed upon and abused, as are children and animals. Without laws, without female influence, the male nature can be animalistic where the stronger preys on the weaker. The Bible calls this the “Beast nature of man” and it is man living from his most abase nature, that wild beast nature that preys on others, much like the wolf that preys on the weaker animals. We see it all over the world with the violence and the wars and the terrorism.
