The question now is. Will you allow ur daughter to post her nudity to the world , all in the name of one useless tradition

YES I will, it's up to her ultimately, like I typed earlier, in Nigeria this is not foreign or strange to us. it is imported morality especially from the Arabs and Europeans that make you think the way you do.
Even those Europeans and Arabs have advanced beyond what they gave you, there are women who join the Umhlanga festivals who aren't even from South Africa they just want to experience it and take part the other time 2 friends of the king's daughters (I don't recall if it was Lesotho or Zulu in South Africa) one from UK the other from Lebanon joined the festival and were nude they also had many who were half south African.

The way I see it:
1. It's my daughter's life I won't live it for her she knows what it is to be a woman more than I will ever know especially if she's doing it for culture or custom, I will support her 100% Also I believe I would have given her most if not all of the skillset to thrive in today's world, and I will be confident that she will know the right thing to do in most situations)
2. I won't marry my daughter, anybody who won't marry her because there is a picture of her naked body somewhere or on the internet is not mentally stable or matured enough to marry much less marry MY DAUGHTER as long as she' is not a wayward person or a promiscuous person to me a nude picture of her for Umhlanga or similar circumstance is not prove of promiscuity or indecency or waywardness.
