  "textContent": "Patriarchy inverts the mammalian order.\nIt assigns initiative and entitlement to the male, and availability and accommodation to the female.\n\nBiology does the opposite.\n\n### In mammals\n\nThe female regulates access.\n\nThe female regulates timing.\n\nThe female decides when arousal becomes completion.\n\nThe male stabilises through successful placement, not entitlement.\n\nPatriarchy trains men to demand and women to supply.\nBiology wires men to present and women to select and contain.\n\n### That mismatch produces:\n\nMale restlessness, addiction, drift.\n\nFemale aversion, shutdown, resentment.\n\nChronic sexual negotiation instead of regulation.\n\nPatriarchy survives only by overriding the nervous system with rules, shame, and duty.\n\nBiology does not comply.\nNervous systems under patriarchy leak.\n\nThis is not political theory.\nIt is regulatory mismatch.\n\n### When women return to biological leadership:\n\nMen calm.\n\nDesire returns.\n\nBond stabilises.\n\nPower stops being performed and starts being felt.\n\n_This is not feminism.\nThis is biology._\n\n#### References\n\n  * CLY.
