1) Yoruba women are RESPECTFUL. From the moment that we were born, Yoruba women were taught how to treat different types of people with respect. For example, it is in the Yoruba culture that when a Yoruba woman meets an elder, she must greet her by kneeling as a sign of respect. She must not call an older person by their name. Instead, it is cultural that an older person be called, “mommy”, “aunty”, “uncle”, “daddy”, “sister”, “brother”, etc.
