I remember reading about certain African tribes, where it's the women's job to hunt while the men nurse the young; I believe one of the tribes is the Aka. Anyway, I came across an interesting journal article that I wanted to share:

Very interesting perspective on cultural difference:

"But back to that male breastfeeding: Jack O'Sullivan of Fathers Direct says he was invited on chat show after chat show on Monday in the wake of the report going public, and faced a mixture of horror, consternation and support. "Some fathers phoned in to say they'd let their child suck their nipples - often it had just happened when the baby was lying on their chest in bed," he says. But some people were disgusted: the words "child abuse" came up more than once, which points up interesting cultural differences when you think that, to Aka folk, much of the way we raise our kids would count as child abuse to them (babies being left to sleep alone in a different room from their parents, for example).

Reminds me of what we abhor as cannibalism--was simply ritualistic behavior for the people of New Guinea and a cultural custom to eat the mushy brains of their dead enemy. I doubt that they would still consider themselves mighty powerful after developing signs of Kuru though... Didn't Sir Lancelot practice the same?
