Gender in Arapesh

Abstract: A 5 page research paper that examines the concepts of gender in Arapesh society. The writer first defines gender and then discusses how the Arapesh, a native people of Papua New Guinea view gender roles. The writer argues that while the Arapesh, on the surface, appear to have few gender distinctions, secret male rituals are an intrinsic part of their culture. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
