HERE’S WHY YOUNG BOYS AND OLDER MEN FROM THE SAMBIA TRIBE ENGAGE IN STRANGE INTIMATE RITUAL The Sambia people are a tribe who reside in around the Eastern Highlands Province of Papua New Guinea. What is unique about this group of people is a cultural practice described as "ritualized homosexuality" and the ingestion semen from older men by young boys. The belief is that without this 'male milk' the young boys will fail to mature properly to become strong men. The process of affirming one’s manhood is not just a one-off thing. According to reports, it can last from 10 to 15 years until the young men become fathers. Upon reaching adulthood, the young men marry and engage in heterosexual behaviour in which their brides are required to perform oral sex on them and later perform sexual intercourse. Copulating between a Sambia man and woman is solely meant for procreation, so if it doesn’t result in pregnancy, it is considered a waste of the semen. The women are also separated from the men when they go through their menstrual cycle, they stay in a designated place called "menarche hut". This is because of the belief that the women's powers to manipulate and weaken men are strengthened during this time. CTA: What do you make of this?
