Microblog #38, "Coming of Age in Samoa, Chapter 13"

Summary
Dr. Mead discusses her view of the contrasts between the place of girls in Samoan and American society, and what she thinks we can learn from them. Or, rather, what we could have learned from them 80 years ago.

Discussion
This whole chapter just seems off to me. I guess it just goes to show that Dr. Mead and I are operating from very different moral codes.
