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 maternal uncles raise the kids and support them to go to school. 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.
