Maasai divide life into stages that mark the progression from childhood to elderhood for men while females pass directly from initiate to woman, males must be tested again and again: attaining adult (manhood) is a complex process that challenges and changes both body and mind.Maasai.Boys are altered outside in public, surrounded by dozens of their age mates who taunt and goad them to avoid the disgrace of expressing hesitation or pain. Girls are cut inside their mother's house, in privacy, surrounded by only four women who whisper encouragement words. Women initiates stand and walk to the bed where they will rest and heal; men are carried. These differences are iconic of the distinctions that will differentiate Maasai women and men from this point forward in their lives.
