According to R.V. Raehn, the belief in patriarchy is to be inverted to a belief in matriarchy in accordance with 1920s Frankfurt School matriarchal theory. The belief in distinct gender roles is to be inverted to a belief that distinct gender roles should not exist in accordance with 1920s Frankfurt School androgyny theory.

Erich Fromm, the creator of gender politics, taught in the '40s and '50s that the classroom must separate the good people from the bad. The bad are the traditionalists, the good are those who “make war against ties of blood, soil, mother, father and religion.” He also believed the very character traits of traditionalists, especially patriarchs, must be criminalized.
