What's the evidence that B7 society is patriarchal? We encounter a fair few female persons of power within the Federation, apart from Servalan.

Well, there are a fair few female persons in positions of power in UK society, too, and that doesn't make it any less patriarchal-- just as having some African-Americans in positions of power does not make the US any less racially stratified. IMO, anyway...
