		<description>Modern townies are just about the most conformist, clueless band of humans that ever lived. Oh sure, you can walk in NYC in your PJs and pierced everything, etc etc... but what&#039;s your life about? Free to consume, free to hide if you are a sociopath, free to parasitize on the hinterlands, free to hold cockamamie beliefs thought up by some other clueless intellectuals. That&#039;s freedom? Small groups expect people to hew to a certain set of values, but when it comes to non-conformity to the larger world and its crap, they are often way ahead.</description>

		<description>Dveej; and Sharon- &quot;These traditional cultures have no room for gays and lesbians. &quot;

As Sharon pointed out, there are good examples of traditional cultures that embraced homosexual individuals as &quot;normal&quot; variations.

I would go on to say there are &quot;many&quot; such examples- but their existence is often obscured by early missionary influence.  Christian missionaries were of course horrified at &quot;primitive&quot; sexuality.  One of the first things they taught them was that sex was evil- all sex, of course, but homosexuality most of all.

Consequently, many later accounts of life in the older culture have homosexuality erased from existence- the converted or educated &quot;savages&quot; being now ashamed and horrified to the point of denying it ever happened.

An example few are aware of; in Melanesian and New Guinea cultures, it was almost universal for young boys to perform fellatio on the adult men, regularly.  Because, they said, the boys could not become sexually mature, without that special food.

That&#039;s not the same as what we consider homosexuality; but knowledge of the existence of the practice- which was virtually universal- has been almost completely expunged.

I&#039;d be interested in knowing how many of the readers here knew about this practice.  Anyone?</description>

		<description>There is another important benefit from staying in one location for many years: accumulated wealth is passed on from one generation to the next. Wealth doesn&#039;t necessarily mean money. It may be furniture, tools, outbuildings on the family farm, etc. It all adds up and helps families and communities prosper.</description>
