There really isn't any native power structures exhibited between pawns. Aside from the obnoxious, slutty, sexually aggressive man behavior(which you're right is stupid and a problem for a lot of reasons) and default marriage names going in favor of the man, gender doesn't actually mean much. The tribal monocultures of each village honestly affects more than any individual pawns traits does.
You make good points regarding the use of unsupported statistics to push a specific LGBT+ worldview, but some of this criticism is a bit unfair because the player ultimately has full agency of it. If you want a matriarchal tribe of Amazonian goddesses that subjugate all men, you can absolutely do that as a player without any alterations or mods to the game. You would need to use the slavery mechanics which is a whole different can of worms to discuss though.
