how could you ruin such a perfect system

I'm sure the women had reservations about that whole "doing all the work" thing.

Of course the Native Americans liked it when they were in control.

Come on down to the plains, where the buffalo are fine and the bitches are finer.

I know, right? It's like you slaughter the whole lot of them and suddenly they get all huffy.

Indians having reservations? Now you're just talking silly.

The men did all the hunting so it evens out... kind of.

Well, okay, but did they have Justin Bieber and Twitter? I think not.

You're welcome, Natives.

From my knowledge the roles of men and women stayed fairly true to 'men hunt, women work' setup, however women and/or men who wished to deviate from what they were expected to do were allowed to do so as well.

As such, it was a pretty good system, until White Men ruined it.

how do you know the indians wouldn't have invented those things

***CaptHayfever*** · 01-15-2011, 01:36 AM

^Well, the plains tribes wouldn't have; they were on the go too often. The northwest & southwest tribes would probably have been the most likely candidates.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Any inspiration they may have had for inventions was lost to the peace pipe on a nightly basis.
