It's always the patriarchal conquerors like the Ancient Romans or the Ancient Greeks that they idolize and never the people like, say, the Picts or the Celts or the Gaul that rebelled against the brutal Roman empire. It's never the Scottish or the Irish heroes who fought back against the British Empire that followed in Rome's footsteps. None of them probably even know who Boudica is.

Ironically, a lot of the stuff you could call "white culture" was burnt at the stake, banned, brutalized, and literally demonized by the Empires that chuds think are so civilized. A lot of pagan culture was lost to time, or warped by Roman 'scholars' for propaganda purposes. If they truly cared about their 'culture', then "Muh Christian trad wife' would be seen as killing the identity of pagan women, rather than an aspiration.

Did some research, I'll need to do some deeper digging but it so far looks like it's not a patriarchy, which is not the same as being a matriarchy

The book is super dense with info so I'll dig too next time I keep reading

Thanks. It's definitely an interesting topic, and whatever the make up of autochthonous European society, the steppe peoples brought in far more severe patriarchy.
