Ethnographer: somewhere men work only as fertilizers, they are not entitled to their children

"Somebody claims everywhere… but seriously, the exact number of no one knows no one.Over the years, we have visited seven companies in which women have somehow on top, and we have chosen the four most interesting - in Mexico, India, Indonesia and China, ”says the traveler.

Are there in some place on the ground men in a really subordinate position that they have to listen to the word? From what I saw was the most close to him of the Indian tribe Khási, where female privileges even enacted.Male groups have been trying to fight for equality for years, but they have not yet reached great progress.

What do we actually imagine under the term “Government of Women”.What do all women decide about? Three of the society we describe in the book are matrilinear - children are named after their mothers and the property is inherited by the daughter - the opposite of how it until recently worked in our country.This arrangement shows, for example, that families want daughters and pamper them as heirs and follower.

Men live in their women's houses or visit them only at night.They work basically only as fertilizers, they have no entitled to their children.They lose everything at the divorce.Now imagine that these cultures exist in patriarchal countries such as India, China, or even in Muslim Indonesia.

There are still women who rule, loving and peaceful beings, or thickened and take over some qualities from men? Depends what do you consider to be male qualities.For example, women of South -Exic users from Tehuantepe's neck called tehuana have grown a huge self -confidence over the years.Are extremely assertive, sometimes aggressive.The men themselves admitted to us that their wives had a "smarter head".

Potheci men are reportedly more subject to emotions while women are rational and solve everything with a cold head.Tehuans are also extremely competitive.They are dropped roughly with each other.And even pretty badly.They just have to do that if you want to succeed, you must have hard elbows.

In my opinion, so -called male qualities - aggression, desire for glory, vanity - owns all of us.If you give women the opportunity, they will just behave just like guys, maybe even worse.And tehuans definitely resembled warrior Amazons rather than peaceful matriarchy.

Do they perceive men as an equal person?.They are absolutely self -sufficient and can cope well without them.Many of them treat their men very indulgently.Perhaps the leader of male activists whispered to us in a heartbreak.That he actually struggles against prejudice all his life.

Since birth, women have favored in their culture and he feels like a breeding bull.His movement wanted to establish a patriarchate with all the trimmings.The activist himself lived in the house of his wife, who certainly disagreed with his radical views.But she let him fight for her patriarchy.She was glad that her husband was not drinking somewhere or not running behind others.And that he has essentially a completely harmless hobby.

It is generally possible to say how women in the countries you write about have got into such a privileged position? In Mexico, the matriarchy developed because men were working on the fields because of the heat at night.They brought the crop home in the morning and went to sleep.Women had to take care of everything else - they sold on the market, held a family casu and knew what was where the rustling.

In Indonesia, men went to the world experienced, spent in China for several months of the year with the caravans of Yak, in India fought with the surrounding tribes and devoted themselves to hunting.And their women again had no choice but to take responsibility for everything else.

Who usually earns money to run a household? They usually earn both.However, women take care of the family cassetted everywhere.Decide what they buy.Men are used to handing out money to their mother, sisters or wives.You allocate small pocket money for hobbies.Women are generally considered breadwinners.

They are brought up to be practical, able to organize everything, take care of everything, just be the head of the family.The nurses are even obliged to take care of their brothers if they need to drive them or are not doing well in their lives.

Who cares for children? They are always women.But they are never alone on it.There is still great cohesion among women from one genus.Grandma, mother, daughters usually live together or somewhere near and support each other.

Does the fact that women are more respected, also that they perform professions that are typically male in our country? This is not entirely.Women are mainly devoted to business.Work in which forces are needed by men.And even politics is mostly a male domain.However, it is interesting that these men completely support their company's organization, in India they even enacted male discrimination themselves.

As for establishing relationships, women conquer men? Women at first sight were not much more active.Men mostly gave inconspicuous signals.They touched his palms, stroking her, and so.Everyone knew what the gesture means.Then they usually left it to him.The convergence system, however, differed.

In China, a man was romantically raising the woman, singing love songs, and when she decided that he tried enough, she invited him to him for the night.There was all of her direction.In Mexico I felt that a guy didn't have much chance to escape when a woman chose him.About the most suitable types women dragged or even struggled.
