If gender is a social construct, male and female don't actually exist so males can't systematically oppress females, therefore?
the patriarchy can't exist. Take your pick leftists either gender has meaning or the patriarchy doesn't exist, so which is it?

Gender exists as a social construct, the beginning of your question shows that you know that. So yes, gender exists and the patriarchy exists? No one is claiming gender doesn't exist in the U.S.

I don't have much of an opinion, but I'd still like to point out a flaw in your reasoning.
"gender is a social construct" does not mean "gender does not exist." Those are two different things. In fact, if a "social construct" does exist, then so does gender.
If gender does exist, then nothing is yet implying that male and female don't exist.
