Hi. You have not submitted any questions related to the statement presented in the question above. This makes it impossible for me to give you an answer. However, I will try to help you by giving you some context about traditional African marriage, and I hope that this will serve as a basis to help you find answers to your questions.
The concept of "traditional marriage" can indeed present sexist and very negative ideas for women. In some African cultures, it was common for traditional marriages to be performed with very young and immature brides, true children who were able to marry, but who were forced into arranged marriages, which proved to be an oppressive and limiting system for women . In this situation, traditional marriage was, in fact, completely disadvantageous for women. However, over time this type of custom was abandoned in many African societies. Although this type of practice still takes place in some countries, African societies have greater access to information and allow women to have more equal and fairer living conditions. In this type of society, traditional marriage is followed more as an aesthetic and cultural standard, but the advantages and freedoms between men and women are usually more balanced and harmonious.
