pita hits,
for multiple years,marriage in cameroon had been taking that dimension of tribal boundaries as you call it.that is what i call the traditional and conservative perspective of marriage in our society.i would like to point out the fact that it happened everywhere but let's look at it in our society first.
some people are still laying down reasons for why people should get married only to people of the same tribe.we should not forget that this rule was highly respected before in our society but as all of you know,it does not make sense.as pita said before ,LOVE is what counts.i don't know how you want to put it but our society will lack some degree of social progress if we still want to consider stuff like that.
bye for now
