The distribution of duties between the sexes among the Manias is as is
commonly found in other hunting and gathering societies.
Men hunt and are responsible for gathering fruits and vegetables and
for digging up wild yams. Women are
thought of as being inferior to men in hunting ability. They are, instead,
responsible for looking after the children. Breastfeeding and pregnancies also
do not allow long hunting trips to distant places.
