There have been quite gynocentric cultures a lot earlier, e.g. the vikings. I'm sure Altmark22 can come up with more. The willingness of men to provide for young and fertile women and secure exclusive sexual access to them is very likely innate to our species and can be found in pretty much all cultures, even in very egalitarian hunter-gatherers like the Ache and the Sharanahua as mentioned on [[Hypergamy]]. This goes hand in hand with a moderately polygynous species, I think. The notion that this is social construction is likely feminist social construction. An argument can be made, perhaps, that more recent large scale systems have exaggerated some aspects of this to sublimate it | There have been quite gynocentric cultures a lot earlier, e.g. the vikings.
