Aryas practiced Sanatan Dharma.All incl women did svadharma sattvik karmas try 4 moksa. Women were professional too. Draupadi Sita Kaikeyi Gandhari etc were practicing ksatriyas. Their tales of insults are related to professional or spiritual performance. NOT molesting.
Aryas were spiritual martial,selected best man for posts. Raja meant commander of forces too. Rajya wasn't property. So after Pandu's resignation his kids can't have'rights'. They have to compete, duel too. Dice gamble wasn't literal. This is common metaphor. Eg: die is cast,or,

eg: Sakas, Moriyas, Huns, Guptas etc. But compared to us they are superior in strength, brain power etc. Gitaji is eternal because conflicts are eternal. Epics Puranas are allegorical not always literal. They're not a black/white, hero vs villian tale. Life isn't that simple
