This is the perpetuation of a systemic culture that needs to be stopped. Someone needs to put an end to this.

Agreed.
I think it is just so hard, though. The instinctive response would be to clean house and replace HC with a governing body with more transparency and accountability. The problem is that the next instinct is to then populate that new organisation with men who have years of experience from which to draw in directing it. The problem is exacerbated by the fact that these men were also enculturated in the same toxic sports environments.
Replacing HC with a new organisation that is not beholden to the old guard will be the greatest challenge. That just sucks.
