Well, one of my favorite feminist theorists Kate Millett talks about patriarchy in the sense that any time it's threatened ANYWHERE there will be a backlash against what theatens it. So since many places around the world are governed by patriarchy, including the UK, Canada, most countries in the middle east, and so on, there have been movements that have been both unsuccessful and successful at breaking down some barriers. Look at the women in Saudi Arabi fighting for their right to a drivers license. Or the women protestors in egypt who were tortured and raped by the new government for being protestors, and who spoke out about it despite the social and cultural consequences of doing so. Anywhere patriachy is, you can find women who try to change it and people who try to silence them. It's just the way patriarchy works. I think there is only one surviving matriarchal clan in the world now, but I'm not sure where it is.

The point is that yes, feminism happens everywhere at different times and beats, but with so many women around the world having their rights theatened it's not wonder we're seeing a huge resurgence of people speaking out, but also huge support for those people threatening the rights.
