A rule of house hold or of any social institution, such as government. Exclusively by men, for male purposes, in which women are not allowed to participate in leadership. This tradition was dominant in Human history up until the Early 1900's when it began to change. Patriarchy has since been nearly abolished in all First world countries. Though, it still exists in other parts of the world.
