The Arctic is a very cold place, and there are very few people living in this place, basically some polar bears, but there are still a small number of people, these people are basically a hunting for a living, they are some Inuit people, it is said that their living customs, in fact, with our modern life customs, or very big difference. The local population is very small, in order to reproduce their offspring, they are said to give their wives to their friends as gifts, many people see here, will also feel very helpless. For them, having a wife is not because of affection, but because they want to reproduce their own children, so they give their wives to their friends and hope to produce more excellent offspring. It is very difficult to survive in this place where natural conditions are very difficult, and if the baby is very healthy, maybe they will be very happy.
In fact, the local marriage system is similar to polygamy, because it can promote the development of the local population. However, for women, it is not fair, because the local is also very feudal and conservative, they still retain a very backward marriage custom system, which is very unfair to women. Women are actually reduced to the appendages of men. Reduced to a reproductive machine, they have no ideas, no thoughts, is very terrible.
And the Inuit, who are basically hunter-gatherers, look very different from the rest of the city. Because their bodies have adapted to a very harsh external environment. However, there is a very good advantage of local life, that is, the local ingredients are very fresh, because the air is relatively cold, so some bacteria and viruses have frozen to death long ago, so the food can basically be well stored, and there is no need for refrigerator.
People who can survive in the Arctic, a very cold place, their physique is very good, because some people who are not good physique, may just be born can not adapt to the natural environment, early death. In fact, now the Inuit, they have to hunt for a living, now the people are some good human beings, are nature’s adaptation, selection and these people left behind. However, the local people, because the survival is very backward, many people go there to play, also can not accept the local, very backward customs and culture.
Because it is very cold, the clothes people wear, in fact, if it is just some cloth, may not be so good against the cold, some of the cloth they wear, mostly some animal fur, because animal fur can resist the cold wind, warm effect is better than those cotton clothes. And their tools are very primitive, they may choose some wild animals to pull them along, and their life is relatively free. Life is fun for itself, and if they go back to the city life, away from their hunting life, they may not be able to accept it for a while.
They have been living here for generations, even though the natural conditions here are very hard, but they are also very happy, after all, this is their living environment for generations, so people still go there to play, try not to destroy their living environment. In addition, people protect the environment, protect their homes and don’t litter, in fact, they can stay here for a few more years, otherwise if global warming leads to no living home for them, people may also feel very sad.
All in all, the customs of the Inuit people in the Arctic are very different from those of our ordinary people. The most important thing is that some local customs are very feudal and conservative. These wives can also be used as a gift for friends, is also very strange, many people also can not accept.
