Women's roles in their families - Matriarchal

Women's role in their families


Across the world, women are siginficant in their families. They could be the breadwinner, wife, matriarch, daughter, or mother. Familes have structured from patriartical to matriarchal.

Women are becoming more matriarchal, due to having a single mother. Women's roles have significantly changed from being a house wife to a working mother raising a family on her own. There are societies all over the world that have matriarchal societies. The principal of matrilineality  kinship is acknowledged exclusively in famales.












When buidling a family in this economy, women work along with the men. Times are slightly different than back then where men only worked, but women stayed home and took care of the home and children.


To be honest, I have seen more single family homes with women being head of the household. At one point, my mother was the head of the household. As women, we are strong, loving, and nuturing.
