Women take "lightness" as beauty, and three cows can marry a wife. Do you know where this is?

Africa is now one of the seven continents in the world. This is an extremely mysterious and ancient continent. The landforms, customs, people and even every detail here give people a very strange (mysterious) feeling.

In southern Africa, there is a country called Namibia. This country is very poor. Its national average income is so low that it is not enough to live on its own. Without the support of the international community every year, it will not be easy for them to survive.

Today, Liu doesn't want to discuss with you how poor this country is, but wants to tell you about a magical tribe in this country.

A magical tribe, its beauty is "light"

It's really hard for you to imagine that there is such an ancient and primitive tribe in the world now. This tribe is Simba.

Women in this tribe regard "light" as beauty. In order to show the beauty of their skin incisively and vividly, many times they don't wear clothes and are completely naked. Is it hard for you to imagine?

Compared with other continents, Africa is a very weak region, but the Simba tribe is the weakest region in Africa. He is the last ethnic tribe in Africa to maintain its primitive ecology.

People in this tribe raise cattle and sheep for a living, and both men and women always appear naked.

Women here advocate "natural beauty"

So, why are all the women here naked? The most important reason is that they are extremely confident in their bodies. The so-called saying that the Buddha relies on gold to make people rely on clothes is absolutely unworkable in the Simba tribe.

They think that all the decorations in the world are not as perfect as their bodies. According to the data, every Simba woman spends at least three hours a day on beauty.

Get up at five o'clock in the morning, and then smoke special parts with an extremely special spice, just like our sauna, until you sweat all over.

Finally, massage, choose a brown-red pigment and apply it all on your body. It is said that this can prevent wrinkles on the skin and protect against the sun.

With the development of economy and technology, these primitive tribes have fewer and fewer habitats, such as Simba's former neighbors. In order to better preserve their own culture, the Simba people retreated to the depths of the jungle and lived in a small village.

Today, the total population of this country is less than 20 thousand. They always take the initiative to avoid the outside world and keep their ancient way of life and their traditional customs.

Three cows can get a beautiful wife.

There is a cruel phenomenon in this tribe. Men here generally don't live to be fifteen, and the proportion of them who don't live to be fifteen is quite large.

It is precisely because of this reason that the proportion of men and women in this tribe is very uncoordinated, which has caused a phenomenon that men like to see and hear, polygamy.

Here, all men can exchange three cows for a wife. These three cows are also exquisite. They need a male and two females in order to have more calves and support their families.

As long as a man has a lot of cows at home and is willing to exchange them, there is no limit to how many wives you can marry in theory.

What's up, boys? Is there a feeling of yearning after reading it? But I guess the probability is not big, more just as curious as Liu.
