Gender

A person’s sex plays a significant role in the culture of Aideena. Wealth, influence, education, occupation and custom are all interwoven with the male and female identity.

The Aideenan society is matriarchal, with women assuming a dominating role in government and the social hierarchy. The feminine is commonly valued, while masculine qualities are generally regarded as subservient or dependent.

Despite the values attached to gender, Aideenans prefer to believe that the sexes are in partnership and, in the grand scheme of Creation, equal. Numerous double standards and contradicts exist.
