THE MURSI TRIBE 🇪🇹
According to the Mursi Tribe of Ethiopia, The lip plate carries a number of meanings. Firstly, it’s a symbol of great beauty. Secondly, it marks a commitment to the husband because it is worn with great pride when serving him food. If the husband dies, the lip plate is removed since a woman’s external beauty is said to fade after his death.
Lastly, the plate is a powerful visual marker of Mursi identity. Without it, they run the risk of being mistaken for a member of another tribe.
Honestly am not against people's culture but I think this is too br¥tal and inhumane
