Abstract

A review of the research literature on Black family life revealed that matriarchal themes are recurrent in describing male-female relationships. This was found in studies on family structure, identification, out-of-wedlock births, parenthood, marriage, sexuality, and peer groups. Research limitations were an evident source of the distortions eventually reflected in family life textbooks. Some suggestions for alleviating this situation are made.
