Matriarchy is a social system in which females (most notably in mammals) hold the primary power positions in roles of political leadership, moral authority, social privilege and control of property at the specific exclusion of males - at least to a large degree. * While those definitions apply in general English, definitions specific to the disciplines of anthropology and feminism differ in some respects.
