Have you ever heard about the Mursi tribe? They live in Omo Valley, an isolated region in Ethiopia. They are one of the last tribes that still wear traditional clothing and accessories. Mursi women are famous for their wooden lip plates – a symbol of beauty and identity.

AFRICA IS VERY RICH IN CULTURE AND TRADITIONAL PRACTICES BUT THE MURSI TRIBE WOMEN IN ETHIOPIA AND TANZANIA ARE EXCEPTIONAL IN PRESERVEING THEIR PRIMITIVE CULTURAL LIPS PLATE DESPITE WESTERN INFLUENCE ON AFRICAN CULTURAL PRACTICES.

In Ethiopia, the beauty of a Mursi woman is measured by how much she stretch her lips and put a round plate on it for months until the lips are large and make a round hole inside her lip as seen in the photos.

This is strong cultural practice by every Mursi woman before you get marry and most of whom remain in the rural areas to resist the western and other cultural influence from the urban centres that might corrupt their millennium old cultural practice.

This tradition should be abolished

When u hear lip service...

There might be reasons why they do it in the past
But I think those reasons no no longer apply in 2024

It's better they stop it, it's ridiculous

Well，I respect their tradition.

We, from this side of the world,will always see this as disgusting.
The Ethiopian women I've known and dated are all beautiful, inside and outside

God1000:
What kind of tradition is this? It should be abolished

What wrong has it done to the world to warrant this emotional outburst?

This is mutilation of body part.
They should have confined it to their community if they don't want to be scrutinized by global audience.
Because it's culture doesn't make it less barbaric.

They should stop that rubbish

So no bloow job

These are the goats ruining the reputation of the Africans.

This is the tribe that they copied their cultural lip stuff and used in Black Panther..

They use lip plate.... D plate is to show that d woman is ready or ripe for marriage... D Ethiopian government is trying to abolish d tradition.... In as much as I love culture, some stuffs must be stopped.... Jst like we abolished d slave trade

Nice

It's called mouth plate.

Kk

Some of these unnecessary age long African traditions needs to be abolished. Cos I don't see how productive peeling their lips is to themselves and their community.

Some traditions have no place in 21st century

.

To me, this culture is terrible!

What type of ugliness is this!

Well done!

The Horners are fine women.

Do you live in Ethiopia?

Criminal antiics of Africans abroad are what's ruining the reputation of Africans, not people's cultures and traditions

Hmmmmm 😏
