The Nacirema people are a group of people who live in the territory north of the Tarahuamare people of Mexico and are native Americans. Nacirema is America spelt backwards. From the article,  we are made to know that the nacirema people relish their bodies as they consider it a weak vessel that needs to be taken care of frequently through their body rituals. Every nacireman owns a shrine and there he does his magical body rituals. The nacirema are quite different in their cultural practice and magical beliefs such as the body ritual and hence considered quite unusual.  We are reminded however of  the danger of interpreting a culture based on first impressions of practices which seem unfamiliar to the observer. Invariably concluding that we should never make conclude that a people are quite different from us as they're in fact not.

An important characteristic of individuals with unstable self-esteem is how they can react very strongly in the experiences that they consider relevant to their self-esteem, within this they can not even see relevance for their self-esteem when there is not. Unstable self-esteem can take many forms. Some people may experience dramatic changes from very positively to feel very negatively about themselves, others may fluctuate mainly in the degree to which they feel positively or negatively about themselves.
