I DONT KNOW HOW TO FILE TAXES BUT AT LEAST I KNOW A SHITTON ABOUT YAM POLITICS

[steinbecks]

also the other day someone said they'd taken an anthro class and they told me about the book they read about this island community that gave each other yams

so of course I went off on Trobrianders

A Trobriander marriage goes like this - you sleep over at your boyfriend's house and instead of sneaking home before dawn, stay on his porch until your parents bring you yams.

I don't mean to flood my blog with this, BUT does anyone know anything about the following and how they are affected by globalization:

The Dobe Ju/Wasi

The Trobrianders

The rural Chinese
