History of a society based on gender separation with women, who far outnumber the men, dominant. The men live in castles, play games, and have contests in order to be chosen by the women as sexual partners and, in particular, to father children. The women do everything else. Over the very long history small changes are made including the beginnings of education for some of the men.
