The women are responsible for domestic duties and chores,
works in gardens to get vegetables and fruits. The men are obliged to hunt and
take part of the manual labor. Women are regarded higher in this culture
because they provide for the males and when it comes to giving birth to
children the male is in great debt to the family of the wife. The debt is
continued to be paid until the parents of the bride die.
Also polygamy is extremely common in the culture and the woman accept the fact and the eldest wife ofthe group is seen as superior compared to the other wives and does not partake in sexual activities.
