I suspect he meant to say that the analogy accurately depicts something that really happens. An assessment that, incidentally, is pretty politically incorrect in itself.

Ah, yes, what an accurate depiction of the "tribe."
Seriously, if you want to go the accurate route, probably best to pick a specific people where that's what actually happens. Not having done that, the problem as stated advances stereotypes of peoples that are referred to as "tribes" as being primitive and misogynistic.
Perhaps use "nation" instead, or better yet, formulate the problem differently.
