Answer:
No.
Explanation:
In a society where men controlled women and older people controlled younger people, people would be very power hungry. Everyone's ideas are different and if someone, lets say they are an old man with bad ideas, he could control the younger society and women into doing his bad idea. Another example is, let's say it's a young woman, she would be over-casted and be able to be controlled by older people and males so she couldn't have free-thinking.
