The Masai are amazing people; very proud, self sufficient and handsome.
I don't know about no possessions. THey have lands and animals. When I was visiting Kenya, it amused me the way they headed out at night to guard their flocks from lions armed with nothing more than a pointed stick and a mobile phone.

Den.....if I have this correct....this also happened some years ago......a woman "fell in love" with a Masai warrior, brought him back to UK and married him. He ended up working in Tesco's stacking baked beans or something. Not sure, but I think that he is back in Kenya and I am not sure what has happened to her.
Madness.....in my opinion.

I remember a nurse from down under who fell in love with a Bedouin and went to live in a cave in Petra, in Jordan.
The marriage lasted 30 years, until his death. I met their son in Petra a few years ago, selling copies of her autobiography.

Just as well nobody bothered to give her a good hiding. Just fancy, a woman smart enough to know her own mind and choose a husband for herself; who would have thought it?

jno...I take your point and there are always "exceptions" to the rule.

Not a good track record, I am afraid as over 35% of marriages end in divorce.
You have brought you daughter up by the values that you consider important, you send her for further education to the Sorbonne and she comes back with a Masai warrior.................luckily not a common situation that a father would have to deal with.

if your marriage is going to fail, I don't suppose it matters whether it's to a Maasai warrior or to a doctor, though you might get a better divorce settlement from the latter.
Zeuhl is right, lions are terrified of Maasai. If they see one they'll turn around and walk the other way. Some people might quite like a husband who isn't scared of lions.
