Gynecocracy: A Narrative of the Adventures and Psychological Experiences of Julian Robinson is a Victorian pornographic novel in three volumes, published in 1893. Its psychological insights were praised by Magnus Hirschfeld. The novel's title, Gynecocracy, means "government by women over women and men" (see also femdom).

The book takes the form of an autobiography by the pseudonymous "Viscount Ladywood". The author recounts his punishment as a boy at the hands of the governess to whom he is sent, along with three female cousins, after having taken indecent liberties with a household maid. Forced to wear girls' clothing as his ordinary attire, Julian, as Julia, is subjected to frequent flagellations, as are his cousins, one of whom he later marries, submitting to her dominance through continued forced feminization, cross-dressing, and age regression play.

The author of the work is unknown, and it is thought that not all three volumes were written by the same person.
