Personally, when it comes to power and leadership, I think women are - on average - less toxic than men.

Do you have any data to back up this view?

That is literally the definition of matriarchy though, yeah. We should strive to replace patriarchy with a system in which power is derived from the respect and consenting cooperation of one's peers.

Overall, we demonstrated that where gender differences exist, ratings indicate that women (relative to men) are seen as engaging in more of the leadership behaviors that research suggests are more effective, including both communal and agentic behaviors.
