This is something, as the main author of this fanon, that I left up to interpretation. I will acknowledge that a male-preferred sucession is preferred, and since polygamy is an allowed tradition, there is rarely the case of a woman being the last in line to inherit.

I also would like to note that this tradition of polygamy applies to leaders, both male and female, and is used to ensure an heir. So should an female leader come to power, it is accepted that she could have more than one husband or consort. It is shamed for a man or woman of a non-leading class to have more than one partner. Sorry for not noting this before!
