Mosuo Women: Inside China's Last Matriarchal Tribe
Often called the “Kingdom of Daughters,” the Mosuo tribe in China is the country's last matriarchy, a society where women reign.
“I will never get married, my generation do not get married,” says Mosuo villager Jiu Duzhima.
The Mosuo people have been living along the Lugu Lake in China’s Yunnan province for centuries. According to the local government, their current population is about 50,000.
"Mosuo people belong to one big family," says village tour guide Balu Zhuomayangzong, "All the sisters live with their elder and younger generations, which means 3 or 4 generations live together in the same house is normal here."
In the Mosuo culture, women are mostly responsible for supporting the family’s needs as well as raising the kids. Kids live with mom’s family and grandmother and matern...

China's Last Matriarchy: The Land Where Women Rule
China's one-child policy led to millions of female infanticides—except in a lush valley known as the “Land Where Women Rule.” Located in the foothills of the Himalayas, Lugu Lake is home to China’s Mosuo matriarchy. The region's 40,000 denizens have come up with a unique own family structure that puts women in charge. The Mosuo's “walking marriages”—in which women can have as many boyfriends as they want throughout their lifetime—replace traditional monogamy and inheritance passes from mother to daughter.
But are the women really in control—and how are men fairing under their rule? Broadly correspondent Milène Larsson spends a week in Lugu Lake with three generations of Mosuo women to find out what life is like in one of the world’s last matriarchies.

MOSUO WOMEN AND THE CULTURE OF WALKING MARRIAGE | Spirit of Asia
“Matriarchy in China” may not be something that sounds familiar to the outside world. But for the Mosuo people who reside around Lugu Lake, men are not positioned “higher up in the gender hierarchy, which is unlike other places in the Land of the Dragon. Instead, it’s the women who are placed in the position of “head of the family”. Just how are Mosuo attitudes towards the roles of women placed “in contrast” to what we see in other parts of China ?

The Chinese Women Who Rule the Roost - BBC News
China's Mosuo tribe has been living more or less in isolation for centuries - tucked away in the foothills of the Himalayas, on the shores of Lugu Lake. Its unique family structure has given rise to a nickname - the Land Where Women Rule. It's one of the world's last surviving matriarchies, in which there is no traditional father role and inheritance is matrilineal, passed from mother to the oldest daughter. Milène Larsson is a correspondent for Vice's Broadly channel - she's made a film about three generations of Mosuo women.

Mosuo, el último matriarcado chino
La tierra y las propiedades se transmiten de madre a hija. Los padres no suelen intervenir en la crianza de sus hijos. Las parejas pueden cambiar cada noche y no está mal visto en la sociedad.
¿Cómo se organizan los mosuo, una etnia china de 40.000 habitantes, y por qué están en crisis? ¿Qué podemos aprender de una civilización tan alejada y distinta de lo que estamos acostumbrados?

The Mosuo people are also known for their practice of “walking marriage” where they meet their partners at a village bonfire party or on the historic bridge that used to connect two villages.
Balu and her family say they hope to see their Mosuo culture continue down the generations.

The Mosuo Sisters
A film by Marlo Poras, Produced by Marlo Poras and Yu Ying Wu Chou
US/China, 2013, 80 minutes, Color, DVD, Mandarin/Mosuo/Tibetan, Subtitled
A tale of two sisters living in the shadow of two Chinas, this documentary by award-winning filmmaker Marlo Poras (Mai’s America; Run Granny Run) follows Juma and Latso, young women from one of the world’s last remaining matriarchal societies. Thrust into the worldwide economic downturn after losing jobs in Beijing and left with few options, they return to their remote Himalayan village. But growing exposure to modernity has irreparably altered traditions of the Mosuo, their tiny ethnic miniority, and home is not the same. Determined to keep their family out of poverty, one sister sacrifices her educational dreams and stays home to farm, while the other leaves, trying her luck in the city.

China's one-child policy led to millions of female infanticides—except in a lush valley known as the “Land Where Women Rule.” Located in the foothills of the Himalayas, Lugu Lake is home to China’s Mosuo matriarchy. The region's 40,000 denizens have come up with a unique own family structure that puts women in charge. The Mosuo's “walking marriages”—in which women can have as many boyfriends as they want throughout their lifetime—replace traditional monogamy and inheritance passes from mother to daughter.
But are the women really in control—and how are men fairing under their rule? Broadly correspondent Milène Larsson spends a week in Lugu Lake with three generations of Mosuo women to find out what life is like in one of the world’s last matriarchies.
