Yeah but you see, to the conservative, it's the woman's fault he's horny so he's going to control the woman.

Sort of. I think if you follow the evolution of it, it starts with, "We have to control women, therefore everything they do has to be wrong somehow, therefore when men are horny for women that's bad and the women's fault." That's also why it's never the man's fault in their eyes. This trick doesn't work if you also blame the men.

Abdullah Ocalan has written about how the domination of women is a founding kind of domination which enabled all subsequent kinds of domination in society, so if we were to stop allowing it, it would have flow on effects that contribute to the dismantling of those other hierarchies.

That's why reactionaries are so desperate to put women back in their box and keep them there. They don't want to lose their dominant positions. They will even talk about the "slippery slope" where allowing minorities to have power will destroy society. It won't of course, but it will weaken their stranglehold over society, which to them is the same thing.
