Title: Creepy Guy
Product review: This is a book about a man who lived for years in a primitive culture, married an uneducated, ignorant young girl woman when she was 9 years old - he was 34 - but what? was respect enough to hold off consummating the marriage until she was 14.He then took her away from everything she knew to live in NJ.Into power imbalance, much?So he was a child predator in a land of innocents and the fact that other (male) anthropologists here have no problem with that (Western sexual mores are so uptight!) is telling.I am trying to imagine the reaction if a female anthropologist did the same thing with a 9 year old male child, but then the field is rife with sexism.Best that child predators just be honest and visit Thailand, although they would not be able to hide behind any respectability by writing a book, of course.
