I'm fascinated - really interesting but also creepy. Just goes to show there are all kinds of ways to organize marriage, children, inheritance, society.

How did you find this?

Oh, I could never 'out' my source. Being all in the link and stuff,..thats just spam.

I am lazy, saw it on my homepage. Also ended up with a nifty sketch of a girl with her panties down, and a dog looking up at her.

MSN is so pervy.

That's really interesting. Thank you for posting it. I see why they used to do it, and I appreciate the writer's neutrality. It makes sense that they want to abolish it now, but I can also see the sense in the tradition.
