In China, there is a "kingdom daughters" - the last matriarchal society in the world

In China there is a tribe of Mohs (it is Musa, Moso, Moss), which has been two thousand years of living according to the principles of matriarchy - and does not know sorrow.

Settlement Mohs, also known as the Kingdom of Daughters, located in the northern part of Yunnan Province, on the shores of Lake Lugu and at the foot of the Himalayas. The population of about 40,000 people professed Tibetan Buddhism and has its own language, which is not even a word for "father" and "husband».





All aspects of the life of the tribe is controlled exclusively by women. Ownership passes from mother to daughter, and sons are just as the inhabitants of the house. Even when the boys grow up and give birth to their own children, they continue to live in the parent homes, while their children are in the homes of their wives and families. And all because the Mohs not recognize the marriage as such. Alternatively, loving couples enter into so-called "guest marriage", which came to nothing obliges and allows procreation. At night, a young man comes on a date to his girlfriend at her house in the morning, it goes unnoticed.

"People here do not believe in marriage, - says a local girl Chatso. - Couples are not sharing the property and work separately. They just spend the night together. We also believe that if two people do not love each other, they should disperse peacefully. What is the point of this marriage, and marriage contracts? »





Someone all the above may seem savage and primitive, but it seems that the matriarchal way of life has advantages. Mohs alien violence, prostitution, fatherless, painful separations, division of property and custody of children. In addition, daughters kingdom, perhaps the only place where the birth of a girl is a real treat for all. People here are really happy. And not only women but also men.
