i have a bit of a problem with the title of this post The Sexist Pigism of Tuareg Women--
since the copy you posted noted that the men have concubines, (and the women have male friends) i wondering were the sexist behaviour lies...? both get to enjoy the company of members of the opposite sex-- basically with no questions or problems.
is it that goods and assets pass through the female line? making it hard for men to divorce? but i suspect the women, who inherit the assests are also responsible for the children.... so its not like they are keeping them, and leaving the kids in poverty with the father... (as sometimes happens in patriarchal societies, or modified ones like ours)
rape, it notes is almost unknown (so when women have power, they don't tend to make life more dangerous for men, by false accusations) -- (and no society is perfect, the are always both evil men and women so some crime is bound to happen)
its an interesting piece, but i don't understand the title.
what behaviour do you see as sexist?
