WEIR4EVER ::: Favorites They have up to 4 legal wives, plus sometimes more. They live together, not in a house but in an enclosure with separate huts/areas. The women accept (not saying they LIKE it), it's a sort of social security system, in a country where the GOVERMENT lets them flat die..... 07-08-13 05:31:03 _____________________________________________________

WEIR4EVER ::: Favorites Actually, 'WODAABE' means people of "The Forbidden". They define their identities by very rigidly sticking to rules of conduct, all-pervasive throughout society. I did research w/ them for quite a while, and Lord.... liberal they are not! Tedious is more like it.... Lovely people, but very hard for Westerners to be around for a length of time. Check book by MARGUERITE DUPIRE. Thanks! 07-08-13 05:35:29 _____________________________________________________
WEIR4EVER ::: Favorites The greatest cultural difference between them & Westerners is to be WODAABE, you do not openly express things, ever if you're starving or in love or worried to death. We over express (we are in a 'safe' environment). They keep most everything 'undercover', a nomadic peoples' classic strategy to survive on other people's territories. We could learn a lil of that....(I could!) This 'communication' dychotomy makes encounters trying FOR BOTH!!! 07-08-13 05:51:21 _____________________________________________________
