  Gynocracy \Gy*noc"ra*cy\ (j[i^]*n[o^]k"r[.a]*s[y^]), n. [See
     {Gynecocracy}.]
     Female government; gynecocracy.
     [1913 Webster]
  
           The aforesaid state has repeatedly changed from


           absolute despotism to republicanism, not forgetting the
           intermediate stages of oligarchy, limited monarchy, and
           even gynocracy; for I myself remember Alsatia governed
           for nearly nine months by an old fishwoman. --Sir W.
                                                    Scott.
     [1913 Webster]
