The Nez-Perce Indians of the Deep South were also matrilineal, might be an interesting addition to your scholarship. Also, see if you can find George Gilder's "Sexual Suicide." He makes a very linear, rational case that men often become bums without a woman to "work for." (To achieve for, to "grow up" for) That a family makes the man, as well as the man makes the family. The feminists went crazy over Gilder's book...another good reason to read it.

Being a father is what makes the man.
