Estioko Griffin and Bion Griffin article mainly describe the women’s roles in Agta economy with their hunting and barter skills for goods and service activity in their community. In many culture women are viewed differently it’s usually the men who hunt and gather food for the family, but the Agta community women not only hunt but also appear to hunt frequently for the family. It’s like a tradition where they allow women to hunt with their husband. They state, “Girls start hunting shortly after puberty, before then they are gathering forest knowledge but are not strong”(1981:194). Comparing this to my culture women usually do food gathering and cooking but hunting would be a no the reason for that is ‘women should not be carrying heavy stuff’
