Why is their skin so red? Is that their normal pigmentation, or is it some kind of treatment that they use?

this is a portion of the world that lives by nature a girl old enough to breed is married to a much older man, he takes her while she is still young and pure, in america we are lucky to find anything even clean, yet again pure. lucky men they are.

[Bekettgirl]

Can't believe I'm going to respond to idiocy but here goes.... sorry to burst your bubble quotelawrence, But Himba girls tend to be married to boys only slightly older than they are. Out of luck old men! And many Himba girls have 'boyfriends' before their arranged marriage...so there goes your purity
