Chapter 7: Formal Sex Relations
Summary:
The relations between males and females is emotionally charged from adolescence until they're old. Between unmarried, the three types of relations are the "clandestine encounter," public elopement, and ceremonious courtship, but "surreptitious rape" also exists for those cannot gain a mate. Celibacy is meaningless to the Samoans.
Discussion:
Well, obviously given the topic this was a little more interesting. I think their relations between men and women are not much different than our own, regarding how they act around each other. This isn't my favorite type of book, but this chapter was alright.
