I got this nice social structure idea recently. Read through completely before judging.
Since men and women on one hand, and other groups of people, have different needs and want different things why not simply divide people into different castes based on their values and gender.
Women want strong dominant male authority in control.
Men instead prefer equality and freedom.
When there is one system for all, then one gender suffers.
In a dictatorship men suffer and drink themselves to death, while women adore their strong men.
In a liberal democracy women suffer because men are not strong enough or something.
So why not just give each gender what it wants.
Freedom and equality for men and totalitarian dictatorship for women.
We can achieve it using a something like a modern caste system.
Men would be ruling master caste and women subservient slave caste.
Before various critics will attack that I will also add this:
There can be separate casts for people who are into homosexuality, femdom or anything else incompatible with these two.
There would be different rules of interaction within the caste and between the casts.
Members of male cast will always be superior and could do anything to members of a female cast, unless she is already owned by another men. Then she is his property and off limits to others.
Inside male cast relationships will be liberal and democratic similar to a proper western society.
All men are created equal and free and should respect each other and each other's space and property.
Within female cast, men would designate whatever structures they see fit and assign women to some ranks and positions within the cast.
After all men need to explain women how to behave. And it is good idea to designate some women as examples for others to follow.
Other casts can do whatever they see fit for themselves.
Finally, it should be possible to change casts based on individual choice. If you do not fit into one of two main casts, you can simply opt into some other cast.
If no cast is suitable then one can be simply a part of technical neutral cast. I would like to avoid calling people like that outcast as that sound derogatory.
Children too should be given opportunity to choose the cast that is up to their preferences when they grow up.
One final thing that maybe we should not call them casts but something else instead.
However, caste system from India does illustrate that you can divide people into groups with different rights and responsibilities compare to others and that will work.
