I am African-American, and I recall some of the taboos about menstruating girls and women that were insisted upon by The Ancestors.
For instance, we girls were not allowed to prepare meals during our periods.
That suited me quite fine!
LOL.
Thank you for the information

An interesting assessment of Zimbabweans beliefs on blood as ritual and a good reason for the ready acceptance of Watchtower doctrines in the region. (Zambia to the north haas even more JWs per capita than Zimbabwe).
They also have one of the worst governments in the World.
