    A patriarchy is a society, family, or system where men hold most of the power and make most of the important decisions, and leadership is usually passed down from father to son. People use this word a lot in discussions about history, culture, and women's rights, often to point out that a system favors men over women - 'many old societies were patriarchies.'
