The girl felt shame to look upon her newly betrothed. During this time, the bride-price was prepared.\~ In one example the bride price consisted of a rupee\hich\f0 \rquote \loch\f0 s worth of new cloth for the bride\hich\f0 \rquote \loch\f0 s mother, a gelded pig, four po\hich\af0\dbch\af35\loch\f0 u\hich\af0\dbch\af35\loch\f0 nds of salt, four pounds of ground roselle flowers, one or two pounds of red chilies, two or three pieces of turmeric, as well as baskets of grain, bottles of mahua spirit, and 5-40 rupees of cash. The pig, grain and liquor are eaten and drunk at the wedd \hich\af0\dbch\af35\loch\f0 i\hich\af0\dbch\af35\loch\f0 ng. The cash was voided in a cross-cousin marriage. \par \hich\af0\dbch\af35\loch\f0 It was also common for a bridegroom who couldn\hich\f0 \rquote \loch\f0 t afford the bride price to serve as a servant to the girl\hich\f0 \rquote \loch\f0 s father for a period of three to seven years. During the first part of this time the bridegroom \hich\af0\dbch\af35\loch\f0 was expected to not have sexual intercourse with his bride. Provided the girl agreed, and she nearly always did, the couple generally did begin sexual relationships after a period of about a year. If she became pregnant during the time of absistence, the \hich\af0\dbch\af35\loch\f0 p\hich\af0\dbch\af35\loch\f0 arents were fined a pig, which was eaten by their clansmen. Afterwards, the girl was considered the boy\hich\f0 \rquote \loch\f0 s wife.\~ \par \hich\af0\dbch\af35\loch\f0 Cross-cousin marriages were very common, especially between a daughter and her mother\hich\f0 \rquote \loch\f0 s brother\hich\f0 \rquote \loch\f0 s son. The family, which has given a daughter \hich\af0\dbch\af35\loch\f0 to another family in one generation thus, was repaid by getting a daughter back as a wife for a son of the next generation. If a cross-cousin marriage had been arranged in this sort of reciprocal agreement, occasionally a father would assert his right to \hich\af0\dbch\af35\loch\f0 a\hich\af0\dbch\af35\loch\f0 girl before his son or the girl had reached puberty. He expected to arrange the wedding in the near future, especially if there were rumors that the girl was to be given to someone else. In such cases the girl\hich\f0 \rquote \loch\f0 s father almost always refused to give the g\hich\af0\dbch\af35\loch\f0 i\hich\af0\dbch\af35\loch\f0 rl until at least both the boy and the girl are mature. Upon maturity the girl\hich\f0 \rquote \loch\f0 s father gladly agreed to give his daughter in marriage to her cross cousin.\~ \par \hich\af0\dbch\af35\loch\f0 Women were very free to change their attachments, or if unattached, to go to the house of the man \hich\af0\dbch\af35\loch\f0 of their choice and live with him as wife even if he was already married.

There is \'93no formally marked beginning of sexual life [\'85 ]. Some men make a distinction between pre-puberty and post-puberty sexual activity, but this distinction is personal and not cultural. Most men, when talking of their past lives, emphasise what was their first \'93real\'94 sexual experience; but some place this first experience very early, at the age of eleven or twelve. I think the operative distinction in the mind of the Lepcha is whether the sexual adventure formed part of a play, or was undertaken seriously for its own sake \'94 (p316). Children\rquote s play of marriage \'93always end in simulated copulation; if the \'93bride\'94 is another boy, the children tie their penises together. From about the age of ten children at marriage feasts and similar gatherings are likely sort themselves into pair s and attempt copulation; there is also a certain amount of mutual masturbation among boys. [\'85] Adult Lepchas consider such sex-play extremely funny, though very childish; far from being disapproving of the children, they are more likely to egg them on \'94 (p310). In the name of legalised adultery, boys have their first \'93real\'94 experience and training with an older married woman, usually an older brother\rquote s wife (p161, 326). Betrothal and marriage start at age 8 (girls) and 12 (boys); at the time of writing, most girls were betrothed before, or at, pubescence. \par }\pard \ltrpar\ql \li0\ri0\widctlpar\wrapdefault\aspalpha\aspnum\faauto\adjustright\rin0\lin0\itap0 {\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid1274888 \par }}}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \cs23\f0\lang2057\langfe1043\super\langfenp1043\insrsid1274888 [4]}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \f0\insrsid1274888 also observed Santal children in their intimacies: \par }\pard\plain \ltrpar\qj \li0\ri0\widctlpar\wrapdefault\aspalpha\aspnum\faauto\adjustright\rin0\lin0\itap0 \rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24\alang1025 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang1033\langfe1033\cgrid\langnp1033\langfenp1033 {\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid1274888 \~ \par }\pard\plain \ltrpar\s19\qj \li708\ri0\sa120\widctlpar\wrapdefault\aspalpha\aspnum\faauto\adjustright\rin0\lin708\itap0 \rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24\alang1025 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang1033\langfe1033\cgrid\langnp1033\langfenp1033 {\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs18\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid1274888 \'93The scene of a first [sexual] encounter is often the forest.
