At the risk of further derailing the thread...
I believe the stance that Seekers are patriarchal comes several dev posts (excluding the whole Drake tribe thing), but most directly from the naming conventions post, which says: "Unlike the Seekers of the Sun, the Keepers of the Moon is a highly matriarchal society(...)" (emphasis mine). There's a fair amount of other dev post evidence as well (Seeker females follow a male to new territories or who can win new territory for the tribe, Seeker females use their father's name as their surname, etc.).
Of course, with the way the Seeker lore is written with regards to territories, one can pretty much write one's territory however works best for the character.
