Mosuo Women: Inside China's Last Matriarchal Tribe


Often called the “Kingdom of Daughters,” the Mosuo tribe in China is the country’s last matriarchy, a society where women reign.

“I will never get married, my generation do not get married,” says Mosuo villager Jiu Duzhima.

The Mosuo people have been living along the Lugu Lake in China’s Yunnan province for centuries. According to…

  1. She said that they're more monogamous, just like the outside world. But I wonder how true that is. How often is it that they have one night stands? How many partners do they have on average in a year? It's not like they just choose one guy and let him climb up to her window for the rest of her life, right? It's not like the father's don't know who they're raising, since they can guess by when she first got pregnant, or is it because they are in a solid relationship?

    I wonder how often is it that a man chooses to stay in her house and just talk to her? Maybe some people think that when he climbs up there he has to have sex. But more than likely, since women are naturally slower, most of the time, at least early on, something more romantic is probably happening than the booty call implied.

  2. Youtube jus ate my reply i cant speak too much here so u need to reseach and see how they are this 5 mins videos is not really accurate
    Our society is not what it seems

  3. There is no marriage involved why do their keep saying walking marriages to brainwash people. Youtube jus ate my reply i cant speak too much here so ppl need to reseach and see how they are this 5 mins videos is not really accurate. Our society is not what it seems

  4. See, the tribes show how our traditions hasnt changed much and the globalization and the introduction of industrial revolution and advanced technology has interrupted and stop how our society should be and help culture and traditions tl evolve in a stead pace. With technology, our biv societies are suffering and fights between genders are happening.

  5. On a day-to-day basis, there is not so much difference between this and a patriarchal society regarding who is responsible for what. Women: family, Men: anything else on the labour market. But the feminine values are more respected here.

  6. this matriarchy of grandma, mom, daughter is common in black America too where black men commonly fail to provide financial support to their wives and kids

  7. I thought matriarchy nation would have advance technology, business & resources but all I’m hearing is dance, sex and having over 30 million partners. I expect more from matriarchy, I’ll keep doing research 🤔

  8. Matriarchal is the most logical system. The women decide who they spend the night with so the males must be nice, sweet and good under the sheets. They can always change their mind and invite a new male so the males better perform well.

  9. Interesting, even in a matriarchal society the women are staying at home taking care of the household and their offsprings while the men are permitted to have freedom and go out to work and provide for their women in society.
