Document Summary
When one is married, the husband stays home with his mother and the wife with her mother: not allowed to stay together, known as visiting marriages . It is forbidden to eat dogs and cats, and talk about sex. Not a lot of men have permanent jobs, especially a managerial one. There is no word for daddy in the language. Women reply on the support of their brothers more than their husbands. Even in the singing of the songs, the women are supposed to go first. When a woman is interested in a man, the woman must give the man a sign and the man must act on the sign. Divorce is extremely common and women are the one whose take initative: if a man is going out with many women, the woman throws them out and divorces them, more practical than romantic.
