Discover how nakedness and modesty vary across cultures and what that reveals about human life. This thoughtful study examines sexual life, rites, and social rules among diverse groups, offering a window into how different peoples organize love, marriage, and body image.
In accessible language, the book surveys topics from clothing and body display to puberty, marriage systems, and gender roles. It contrasts ideas of modesty with practical needs like heat, cold, and sun protection, showing how clothing can serve function, ornament, or social signaling rather than concealment alone.

Excerpt from Sexual Life of Primitive People
To most lay people the established order of sex relationships and marriage seems something so self evident and stable that they cannot conceive the possibility of a variation in the established order. Yet here, as in all things, the law Of evolution applies. Our sexual system is the outcome of a long continuous series of changes beginning with the very dawn of human history. To understand the modern sex problem rightly it is essential to know its origin and gradual development.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive exploration of the sexual habits of primitive people. It challenges the common belief that marriage has always been practiced by primitive people and that casual and promiscuous mating has only recently emerged. The author, an expert in sexual anthropology, provides evidence of sexual freedom before marriage and the relative lack of importance given to marital fidelity in many primitive societies. Drawing on examples from diverse cultures around the world, the book presents a fascinating and thought-provoking insight into the evolution of human sexual behavior.
