Here is a surprising truth that our confreres of this daily newspaper Le Point found at the "Nyinba" a tribe of Tibet. Tibet is a plateau area found in the northern Himalayas of Asia, traditionally occupied by Tibetans and other ethnic groups.

The ethnic group was especially interested in this due to a most surprising practice. According to our source, among the "Nyinba" the brothers share the same wife. A practice which has always amazed visitors of this "Nyinba". The Nyinba will do this so as to save more cash. To be happy with just one woman is the only means for brothers to avoid sharing the household area on the death of the parents.



When the oldest sons of the house reach the age of marriage, the parents choose a wife, often very young. Officially, she is united with the eldest brother, but the others are included in the marriage. If they are too young to eat, they will wait for the time. The ideal marriage has three brothers. When a family has more than three sons, it often happens that the fourth is sent to a convent and that the fifth part of the household for the city in order to make its life alone.
What happens if the single wife turns out to be barren? Very simple: a second one is co-opted. And if the brothers who stay at home are too numerous, or if the younger do not appreciate sharing the wife of their big brothers?
The family makes it come a second, younger! For the stability of this marriage to many, it is imperative that the single wife should share her sexual attentions with all the brothers in a fair manner, even if she expresses a preference for one of them.

At the birth of a child in the home, it is up to the mother to designate the father. In general, it is not too difficult for her, because the very different activities of her spouses cause them to often leave the home in turn.
