https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7w0qDyPAvk?si=_2fv13G_RE695lR 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. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqvS_h9nj9A?si=XhwTmHBJ1RTlny1K 2 Shares

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 66 Likes 6 Shares |

RaySimran: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. 50 Likes 2 Shares |
