So if Edo women starts wearing those beads regularly, will they be punished by dressing like a royalty?[/quote]no i dont think so. maybe n just maybe d person might get a warning if she's acting or talking nonsense
but y wud any1 want to dress like that regularly?

trust me d real beads r very heavy on d neck, head, etc = tho very beautiful - u just cant wait to take dem off after d wedding
so i dont think any sane girl/woman wud want to dress like that everyday without any good reason = heavy beads n no tops, only wrapper? no way!

What is the history behind it? [/quote]they/we r just following tradition = dressing like princesses or d oba of benin's queens - dey live their everyday life dressed like that
but brides from edo gets to dress like that once or on their wedding day
