brahamainc patriarchy
ब्राह्मणवादी पुरूष सत्तात्मकता


Explanation:
For Patriarchy I have deteberately avoided the word "Pitra" because it seems archaic in the present scenario. 'Patriarchy' stands for a society controlled by men where men use their power to their own advantage. Since this definition of patriarchy essentially denotes male dominance, I have used the word ''Purush Sattatmakta" for it.

neutral  keshab: Your logic is right but here we discuss languages which defines male dominance as "Patriarchy"and we can translate originally the word as "पितृतन्त्र ".isn't it?
15 mins
  -> Thanks for the response Sir but I didn't understand the point you wish to bring forward. Instead of just lifting the meaning from a dictionary, I tried to give a more lucid equivalent to ''Patriarchy' which has conveyed the sense of Purush Varchasvata

agree  C.M. Rawal: ब्राह्मणवादी पुरुष सत्तात्मकता (but with correct spellings of पुरुष i.e. with the short vowel instead of the long vowel used)
15 hrs
  -> Thank you sir...I will correct the spelling error in future.
