The point of saying that something is a social construct is to show that it isn't some immutable requirement of nature. It's something we decided to do, and most importantly, could decide to do differently if we all just pulled our heads out of our asses. It's the reply to people who say "it's always been that way" and look at you like you are crazy for suggesting we do something different.
