And whether it's all rubbish because they only study people from WEIRD societies (Western, Educated, Industrial, Rich, Democratic).
Opening paragraph:
In the tropical forests of New Guinea, the Etoro believe
that for a boy to achieve manhood he must ingest the
semen of his elders. This is accomplished through ritualized
rites of passage that require young male initiates to
fellate a senior member (Herdt 1984/1993; Kelley 1980).
In contrast, the nearby Kaluli maintain that male initiation
is only properly done by ritually delivering the semen
through the initiate’s anus, not his mouth. The Etoro
revile these Kaluli practices, finding them disgusting.
Awesome.
