Chapter 6: The Girl in Her Community
Summary:
In this chapter a girl's place in the community is discussed. Men and women both have specific roles but it is explained how the man's role is more recognized in the Somoan society. Mead discusses the role of young girls and how it is related to society.
Discussion:
It's interesting to hear about a culture who takes these ideas way farther then we take them. I didn't really find it suprising after reading the previous chapters to hear in further detail how the men's roles are more important than the women's to this society.
