Adat Perpatih is unique. marriage within the nearest family or clan is prohibited, cousin marriage for example between a woman and her father's sister's son is more preferred. married couples usually live with the wife's mother or another relatives. the women are expected to manage their career and house chores. land are collectively owned by elderly women but decision regarding land usage are made by consensus. however, the Minangkabau men tend to leave their hometown and seek for wealth and respect in the other land.
