THE MAASAI WARRIORS - ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW

Maasais are part of the old culture, which has exact rules and widely expected behavior. They are trying to follow their old tradition until today. In the past, every age set had special function. Today things partly has changed (not only because of maasais - but also because of globalization) and the warriors no longer perform their original tasks. 

Today, the Maasais do not face original dangers anymore, that's why the original role of warriors is just only history. Status of warrior is defined in the day of special ceremony called Eunoto. The only serious condition for participation in the ceremony today is male  circumcision, every warrior must complete it before ceremony. The decision is up to father, he will decide which time his son becomes to be a Maasai warrior. The circumcision itself is not nice experience, it's hurting, the young boys cannot express any pain, any feeling of fear or suffering in face, they need to stay strong during whole the process of cutting. But all the boys will gladly go through it because after all a reward is waiting for them in the form of absolute freedom and power (at least for a decade). This day all young boys are waiting for since born and looking forward to it. The golden age can begin. 

While female circumcision is a devastating intervention in the human body resulting in the mutilation of a woman, in the case of the men it is an intervention that will have no effect on their future physical or mental health. In terms of mentality, circumcision means a lot to boys, as they can enter the next, best time for the Maasai. The time of being a Maasai warrior. After circumcision, their health will be even stronger, as a circumcised man, for example, is less likely to get a sexually transmitted disease than an uncircumcised man. For men, male circumcision has only advantages. In the case of men, this operation does not affect the quality of sexual life, what cannot be told about circumcised women.

On this place is needed to say - that today women are not directly pressed by men to go through female circumcision. The women from tribe wanted this themselves. Because there is a big brainwashing from the side of mothers of young girls. Young girls deeply believe that only way how to become a full-fledged woman is to be circumcised. The girls are pressed to believe in it by their mothers, grandmothers and by other adult women in the tribe. To be fair it's probably not the fault of the Maasai men. But there is a faith among young Maasai girls, that without this surgery Maasai man would never marry them. It's deeply in the culture as the habit and Maasais don't like to change their behavior, despite the fact some of those traditions are cruel, painful and senseless. 

After circumcision the Maasai's boys are ready to become Maasai's warriors. They lie to you if they tell you that in order to become a man, they need to kill the lion. Or similar bullshits. It is not any  truth. They just need to be circumcised and  go to the special ceremony that takes place only once every few years (around 12). But also those who can't be present personally there - it will happen to them automatically. (they will become to be warriors or they will end in the warrior role). Their presence is expected and wanted but not necessary. When a warrior is in Europe in time of ceremony and he can't travel to Tanzania - it doesn't matter. He will stop to be a warrior automatically at day when that ceremony will be happening in the bush.

The Maasais have many different ceremonies but this big one when one generation of warriors is replacing the last generation is happening just once in a decade. This  ceremony doesn't have exact date. Also age itself doesn't define the time when the boy will become a warrior. It depends on many factors and last word has always the father of the boy as a head of family. (Maasais are living in patriarchal and very chauvinistic society regarding to their culture). Someone who is already 30 years old can be still a warrior, but other man who is only 25 is not warrior anymore. Important is in which age the boy started to be a warrior. If he was 8 years old in that time or 25. For our issue (relationship with a Maasai warrior)  you only need to know, what does it mean - to be a warrior. And how great time it is for these young Maasai men.

Being a warrior is closely linked to how these people behave, whether in relation to white women or in relation to existing rules inside their culture. Without knowing what does it mean - to be a warrior, you will not understand deeply their actions, behavior and the approach to you. Warriors (in the past) were responsible for the protection of the boma. They protected the tribe members against wild animals or against other tribes around. Today, they are not doing this anymore. Today, they are on beaches of Zanzibar hunting white women to use them. They need white woman to improve their lives in the bush. All the warriors and other Maasais you will meet at Zanzibar are married, mostly having many children already. Also guys in age around 18 - 20 are married. If you will meet a maasai in age around 30 at Zanzibar - then the chance that he is not married is near to zero. There is no such a case which would be known. All of them are married. All of them need to use white woman for getting more money for their wives and children and parents, because in case of money - these weak men are fully dependent on white women and without money from white woman they are not able to take care about their own families (wives, children, younger siblings and parents).  Also those who are at work somewhere - their salary is NEVER ENOUGH. To discuss about this is just senseless. Whole the blog is about their tactics and intentions to use you. It's enough to read all here and after you can't fall in the trap with these people. 

Warriors have all possible freedom. They don't need to ask anyone for any permission. (now imagine how they feel to need to ask for permission from you :) Really bad. They always do ONLY what they want to do, they go where and when they want to go. Nobody can stop them. They can go inside of foreign houses and the people living there have to give them food and also the bed (all for free). They are free in everything you can imagine. Also sexual freedom in the bush is for men incredible. They can have sexual intercourse also with married women without being judged by others. They can sleep with little girls with any problems, naked in one bed, after dancing in the evenings. They don't have one girlfriend, they have always different one depends on in which boma is dancing in the evening. Of course the theory is that they are not allowed to have sex with those small children but who knows what is happening in the Maasai's cottages at nights after dancing. Officially allowed is to touch, to be naked, to do whatever they want but not to have a sex. Who knows maasais can only hardly believe in it. Maasai can't control themselves in sexual way, once they want and they feel - they fuck and they don't ask. Like animals. Easy. 

Warriors are sleeping with their young girlfriends in age around 13 years. In Europe - they would go directly to the prison for it. But - different world - different rules. Different habits. Maasai in general are having sex also with wives of their own brothers. Whenever they want. They are fucking a lot in bomas, and they are fucking everywhere around. And they will not stop with this because of white woman ! Who is a mzungu for them ? Nobody, but wallet. Warriors are in the life situation, which will NEVER come back. And not only warriors are so lucky. Maasais men in general are free to do whatever they want. The only exception is when they are still children (before warriorhood). Maasai children are abused by adults and they have to obey and respect everyone in the boma. But once they will be warriors, their misery will end forever. To be a man in Maasai tribe is a great thing, but to be a warrior is the golden age. All what they need is to enjoy this special time as much as possible. All that freedom in everything. All that hospitality. It's the real heaven for those young men who were during the childhood just servants of adults. That's why they are so crazy. Suddenly having freedom. AND YOU ARE NOT THAT ONE WHO WIL STOP THEM TO FULLY ENJOY THIS SPECIAL TIME. YOU ARE NOT THAT ONE WHO WILL STOP THEM TO DO ALL WHAT THEY WANT TO DO. Enjoying free sex with many different women, enjoying freedom without almost any responsibility. The only responsibility they have is to find money and send home. But nothing more. To find money is very easy. It's enough to catch white woman and use her. Nothing more. They can spent also a year without seeing their wives and children without any problem. Once they are sending the money home, everything is fine for them. They will do all what the culture is telling them. That's why to think, a Maassai can be with you forever, loving you, be loyal to you - it's a nonsense. It's your wish only. Dream about life with warrior :) These people will use you as much as possible and then they will go just next door or they will run back to Tanzania. The only exception is - if they will find woman who is stupid enough to accept all the lies, polygamy, promiscuity and at same time, she will pay all for their life for what they will ask. And she will never stop to pay. Yes, in this case, Maasai can stay with her, going home to Tanzania only time to time (but at least once a year) , just to enjoy free fucking and free life of Maasai man. 

How to recognize warriors? For many people is not easy. The original habit that only warriors can have long hair - this is not true anymore. In the past it was like that but today they can have short hair, long hair (artificial) or their own long dreads. Also those who are not anymore warriors can have now long hair (but only their own). Those who are not warriors anymore cannot wear long artificial hair from the black threads connected with red tiny ropes to their own short hair. But some of them in the effort to attract tourists more are using the fake wig on the beach also when they are not warriors anymore. Of course in the bush, this would be not accepted by anyone. Life in the bush is very different from life which they are living at Zanzibar. But some things are the same - a lot of sex with random women / girls and a lot of speaking and spending time with each other in company of other warriors.

One more information which is needed to be added. If you will meet someone who is not warrior anymore - it doesn't mean anything good or better for you. The mentality will stay the same. Nothing will change their minds. Their wives and children are still in the bush. Their intention only to use you is still there. So, don't be happy that your Maasai "boyfriend" is not warrior anymore - it doesn't make any difference for you :) To meet a Maasai is still the same disaster for you - however he is still warrior or not. 

This article was written only to explain more deeply who warriors are but the beaches are full of Maasai scammers who are not warriors anymore. Warriors are only more wild but there is not big difference in the way of relationship to you. The same story - and the same tragedy for your life and for your future. 

In last years warriors are not respecting own culture anymore as before. They are wearing long own dreads which is not allowed for them. Also they are drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes, waking up at lunch time. Nobody complains and these guys are doing whatever they want. 

Maasais culture is slowly going to its own destruction and it's probably not reversible anymore. Nobody can stop them to destroy own old culture. They themselves will make from old Maasai tribe - just tribe full of criminals, cheaters, scammers and thieves. But at least, the world will slowly know about it and hopefully for them will be each year more and more difficult to catch new victim and destroy her life.
