People spend roughly one-third of their lives sleeping or napping. If you experience back pain, consider placing a pillow under your knees, so you can align the natural curve of your spine. Sleeping in a starfish position may induce lower back pain, which interferes with your normal sleep. According to studies, only 5% of people sleep in this position. Starfish is when you lie on your back and sleep with your arms lifted up near your head. Lying on your back with your arms tight to your body is actually a good sleeping position, as it helps maintain your spine in a straight line. Studies have shown that people who sleep like this may be quieter and more relaxed. It’s when you sleep with your arms down and very close to your body. This is a kind of a weird sleeping position, but very common. If there are school fees to be paid, the son goes first, and some families leave out girls all together, believing the girl won't have much use for education once she is married anyway. Certain cultures preferentially put resources into their male children. But when some women choose to focus on activities that take them away from being this optimal homemaker, many of them face social stigma.Īdditionally, over the course of the past several years, I have spoken to young women from Uganda (where the film is based), Tanzania and Kenya, who have told me of another unfortunate problem facing some African young women. This element of some cultures in and of itself is not necessarily a problem. "How else will you care for your husband?" I was told several times over my last visit to Ghana. Some of these responsibilities start from as young as 5 and are expected to be handled masterfully by adolescence. They cook, clean, carry water and they look after the children, the sick and the elderly and many also work outside the home. In many African cultures, women are expected to carry the household.
