(Nuba, Shilluk, Bari, Dinka, Baja, Kuku, Dogons, Yoruba, Mandari; ®Zande) Play at marriage does not involve “any physical relationship” (Deng, 1972:p64)[1]. Children’s socialisation is segregated after weaning, although “[t]here are many things they do together, with or without significance attached to sex”. No claims are made on sexual behaviour socialisation. Courtship seems to begin in “youth” (p86-92). The Dinka strongly object to premarital pregnancy.
