No one understood this question. If a society relies on something to perpetuate itself and it makes that thing illegal, that society ends.
Patriarchy(as defined by feminists) ended as soon as violence against women became illegal.
Think critically about the crap you believe.
How much money does Patriarchy put into encouraging 'violence against women' in order to maintain itself? How much money does Patriarchy put into stopping violence against women?
Let's do a comparison.
If Patriarchy uses 'violence against women' to maintain itself, why wouldn't it start off by making men's violence towards women socially acceptable and legal? Create a 'patriarchal renaissance' in which whatever thing 'violence against women' benefits flourishes.
Incidentally I think the entire structure of this belief system is absurd.
It presumes that men would not just tolerate violence against women but use it as foundational to a social system. That's some serious damn demonization.
"Hey Mac, let's slap some 'violence against women' on that leaky pipe."

In the land of Fairness there existed a factory that supplied all the needs of its inhabitants. It was built by generations of Kings of Fairness and manned and maintained by its sons.
One day the Queen of Fairness, bored in her leisure, was watching the factory... [1/?]
Men, their steps quick with purpose, entered and exited the factory. She heard the sounds of industry, and sometimes over that song and laughter as the men easied their toil through camaraderie.
Sitting in her silent room the Queen's jealousy and anger rose. [2/?]
She set her maidservants scurrying to fulfill her many and contradicting desires. Every time they failed, she slapped them and fell into tears of frustration and there out the window was the factory with its purposeful sound and men entering and exiting with cheer. [3/?]
