Cultural heritage
Culture! Culture! Culture! It is said that culture is the way of life of people. Different people with their own culture. Every part of the world have their own culture. Be it white or black,you have your heritage.
But come to think of it this way, can there be someone without culture?
To me I think culture deals with morality and immorality of any individual. Choosing your way of life Is your culture. There are some culture that are imitable. Although,there is no culture that can't be imitated,but due to the previous culture grown with, some of us see some culture as a bad culture which can't be imitated.
In some culture, they believe a girl of 15years is old enough to be in a man's house as his wife, but in some other part of the world she is still a child who needs her mother's tenderness. Some even betrothe a new born baby girl to a man who is old enough to give birth to her,they believe that was the right thing to do so the child won't grow up and be with any other man till she grow enough (15years) for marriage.
In some other culture, even if you're 18years and you mistakenly got pregnant, you will hear different ancestral praises that you've never heard before. If you are old enough like 25years and you bring a man in his 40s home, you will hear "she is getting married to him because of his money".
Recently, I heard of a culture which was what prompted this writing.
The culture is from some part of a country which stated that.......if a visitor visited his friend,the host must offer his house wife to the visitor to sleep with overnight,if the visitor objected it is considered to be a taboo and which will result to conflict between the men.
As a woman who love her husband and man who love his woman,how do you think I can withhold such culture that will make another man have my body while I'm in my matrimonial home,on my matrimonial bed,it is really uncalled for culture. I even heard they do not consider any child a bastard, so if the woman got pregnant in such act, the husband is still the father of the child,what a culture.
Some tribe of let me say some family in a tribe had a culture where if a family member likes your wife and told you, you have to give your wife to the person for the night. Well I don't think they might still practice such culture.
In some culture, siblings can't marry same husband nor wife, family can't marry each other, siblings can't marry each other,mother can't have s*x with her son, father can't have s*x with his daughter ,because it is considered a taboo and believe it will have posterity repercussions. But,to some other part of the world it might be nothing to them .
Many cultures suppose to be eradicated to me because they seems disgusting and uncalled for. I wish I could write of a sinful culture that has been in existence till date.
There is a culture that says a man marries a woman which means the man pays' the woman's dowry to her family. In some other part of the world the woman is the one who marry the man and pay his dowry.
The world revolves with different people, with different cultural heritage that simplify them. Some even celebrate even with cultural activities that people cherish and still practice till date.
In some part of the world halloween is a culture that as been in practice for over 100 years and till date people still practice it. Halloween day is always fun but as well scary, but regardless, people still practice it.
There is also this culture in my country that people even come from all over the country to celebrate. Calabar festival is a cultural be festival celebrated by the people and indigenes of Calabar. It is celebrated every year by the people and it has been in practice since 2004 till date.
Happy salah to all muslims. Please kindly send me location for the Ram 🐏 meat 🍖.
I have heard of the culture too and I heard a story where the man hides his wife and didn't allow her come out till the visitor left, lying that she had traveled. That is a crazy culture if I must say because God detest such.
