What would be the consequences of matrilineality in a society?
Both males and females can inherit from their male and female relatives from the mother side but not the father side.
When a male dies, his estate is inherited by his closest males and females relatives from his mother side but not his father side or his children.

>that wealth is "theirs"

Hmm.
>>
Half or more positions of authority and import being occupied by women would dramatically decrease fertility. More fecund patriarchal societies nearby would come to massively outnumber them and soon displace then, either through violence or perhaps simply by asking to be let in.

Men stop working hard because their efforts don't matter.
>>
>>54695054
Stagnant in the tribal stage, like basically every matriarchal society in real life. Unless, of course, the GM decides otherwise through Fiat, an actual explanation (likely involving external factors) or makes them non-humans.

Most of Europe has been quasi women-ruled for most of its history. Sure, they weren't land owners or generals, but neither were 99% of men. The import of the bigwigs is wholly overstated for most of the population. The most important authority position cut off from women was the religious one and later on being teachers. Outside of that they had a fuckton of weight in the familial and group structures that made up the vast majority of the populace until the 20th century. Children of all genders had worth to everyone, the kill-your-daughters meme is only relevant to shit tier countries with fucked cultures and laws.

>>54695054
Why is "theirs" in quotation marks?

Why would maternal uncles be a bigger authority figure than fathers? Paternal aunts aren't more authoritative in patriarchal societies.
>>
>>54695734
It indicates that the males retain control of the wealth they personally generated, as opposed to control of the wealth being transferred to the females.
>>
>>54695781
But why is it quotation marks. If they maintain control of their own wealth, you wouldn't need them.
>>
>>54695734
>Why would maternal uncles be a bigger authority figure than fathers?
If we follow some examples from the natives, males breed outside their clan but stay with their maternal family. So uncles have children in other clans but it's their duty to teach nephews all the stuff man should know.

>But why is it quotation marks
Because OP's image is of a PowerPoint slide, presumably created by someone who was speaking at the same time as they were presenting the slide. The creator likely didn't intend for literal autists on 4chan to ever view the slide.

Or maybe it's a Jewish SJW plot to steal imaginary wealth from hypothetical inhabitants of this imaginary society.

He should be more careful next time. I have autism and I'm not afraid to use it.

Jews.

>>54696202
Would it be less triggering if the word was italicized instead of framed inside of quotation marks?
>>
>>54696242
If the intent is to provide emphasis, italics would be the superior choice. In english, putting an idea in quotations implies that it is de jure true but de facto untrue.

E.g. divorce court is "equitable," Donald Trump is a "Christian," etc.

Endless incest
>>
>>54696242
Do you want to say something to the audience by italicizing it? If not than just use plain text. Quotation marks are often used for double entendre or mocking manner of speech and not only in English language.
>>
>>54696283
That's what I'm saying. The creator of the slide is probably not an English major, and as such doesn't realize that there are better options for conveying that idea in a text-based medium.

It'd be no different than a normal society, except without reason or accountability.

Who doesn't? Shit look how women treat other women. Women hate women too.

>>54696153
Wow, way to spazz out. So your take is that they just arbitrarily put quotation marks around it. Gotcha.
