Matriarchy is a social system in which females hold primary power and predominate in roles of political leadership, moral authority, social privilege and control of property. The corresponding male concept is patriarchy.
Most anthropologists hold that there are no known anthropological societies that are unambiguously matriarchal, but some authors believe exceptions may exist or may have.
A matriarch is the female pendant to a patriarch.
The concept of matriarchy is popular in the femdom/malesub BDSM scene and is also found in F/M spanking fiction.
