First of all, I don't owe you anything, and secondly people who know even the tiniest bit about the sociology of this culture know this comes out of patriarchy so I don't need to "Prove" to the average culturally savvy reader this is the case. There's a limit to what someone can put into a 7 minute essay, but here's something else I wrote a while back that explains it in detail.
“In contrast with the peoples of Old Europe as well as those of Mesopotamia, who worshipped a life-giving goddess that brought abundance, law, art, and beauty both the Kurgans and the ancient Hebrews worshipped a god of war and mountains, one who had no balancing female consort like that of the goddess. These invaders glorified in the death and destruction that they brought in the name of their god (Jehovah or Yahweh for the Hebrews), and in the case of the Kurgans, they actually paid devotion to their swords.
The one thing they all had in common was a dominator model of social organization: a social system in which male dominance, male violence, and a generally hierarchic and authoritarian social structure was the norm. Another commonality was that, in contrast to the societies that laid the foundations for Western civilization, the way they characteristically acquired material wealth was not by developing technologies of production, but through ever more effective technologies of destruction.

This is what the term patriarchy actually refers to from a social science perspective — a male-dominated social hierarchy established and maintained through intimidation, coercion, violence, and fear. The war chieftains who are the most violent and most ruthless rise to power and prestige, and an ethos of Might Makes Right prevails. Culture becomes more authoritarian and much more hierarchical and stratified. Women and weaker men are at the mercy of the domination and violence of the stronger men. For the first time in human history, some people count and other people don’t.”
Perhaps instead of telling me that my whole premise is wrong, you could instead ask me how it manifests itself in the face of various religious and philosophical traditions that teach self-control. Try seeking information and clarification instead of being condescending and belligerent - the exact sort of thing I'm describing actually. Pretty ironic...
Edit: Here are some more essays that further flesh out the transition between our history of cooperative egalitarian social structures and the move to patriarchal dominance hierarchies where Might Makes Right and the most brutal and heartless get viewed as leaders.
Edit #2 CEOs have a much higher level of sociopathic/psychopathic traits than the average American. Yet another way that ruthlessness gets equated with leadership in our culture.
