So, there are many marriages where the relationship is strictly controlled by the man and the woman is subservient. Or abused but she doesn't complain out of fear. By the same logic marriage is just as flawed.
You seem to be making the claim that polygamy implicitly means a patriarchal relationship, am I right? If so, you have to demonstrate that claim.
