The results of the study show that the birth of male dominance in the thought process of legal formation, because male groups have misunderstood or biased in constructing the concept of man. According to feminists, legal structures are created by men and reinforce male values. By stating that the male group is the norm. Conversely, women are deviations from the norm and this is hegemony in the concept and reinforcement of patriarchal law and power. Feminists challenge and dismantle the belief or myth that men and women are so different, that certain behaviours can be distinguished on the basis of gender differences. Gender according to feminists is socially created or moulded not biologically. Sex determines physical appearance, reproductive capacity, but does not determine psychological, moral or social traits.
