African? Never heard of it in mine or any other. Maybe muslims. In my tribe, they all walked around half naked in leather skirts. Until Colonialists brought us their clothes.

KingEbukasBlog:Yeah. It's a very European cultural phenomenon. The Europeans colonialists were puritans whose women dressed more or less like muslims. They influenced the African perception of women and unclothedness over time. It's all in the head. The pre-colonial society also had zero prostitution, rape, and other plagues affecting modern women. I must say that the African societal structure was also very strong, and so deviant members of the society were culled as soon as they showed their tendencies. 1 Like 1 Share |

Muafrika2: So the above summarizes eurocentinism - where the European culture is seen as a quintessence of the way of life . |
