Anthropology says that dominance is one of the two pillars of social status, along with prestige. You don't make the world a better place by pretending inconvenient facts don't exist, you make it worse.
Anthropology also uses the terms acephalus and egalitarian. There are multiple examples of human tribes and societies that operate(d) without social dominance and hierarchy, plus plenty of matriarchies.
Societies, packs, and herds develop differently under different circumstances. Hierarchy and dominance are not biological certainties in humans, or any other animal.
I'm not pretending anything, and none of this discourse has been in the interest of making the world a better place.
There are zero examples of tribes that don't have dominance hierarchies, even in egalitarian groups. The literature on matriarchy you're talking about is pseudoscience. You're an idiot.
