At a brief glance, the Mangaia, an island in the South Pacific Ocean, appears to be wonderfully open and accepting of their sexuality.
The people who live there start having s$x at a pretty young age and are taught how to have s$x well and how to please their partners. Orgasms are attained almost universally on the island for both men and women.
They encourage young men and women to have many s$xual experiences with many other people before they find their future spouse and then continue having s$x with their significant other at least once a week until they virtually cannot do so anymore.
The island was first discovered by Europeans on 29 March 1777 with Captain James Cook. It was visited by two more ships, one of which was possibly the HMS Bounty, before John Williams of the London Missionary Society in 1823.
Williams could not land, but in 1824 he returned and left behind two preachers from Taha’a, who converted the islands to Christianity.
Before the missionaries, Mangaian society was characterized by a violent struggle between war-leaders competing for the title of mangaia (supreme temporal power), with Ariki serving as priests rather than hereditary chiefs.
The last mangaia, Pangemiro, died shortly after the missionaries’ arrival, and the abolition of war under Christianity froze the power structure and the division of land and titles in the state they had been in 1823. The Numangatini Ariki became dominant, with the title alternating between two branches of the family.
Clothing is optional for children at all times other than when they go to church or another formal event, and then their genital region is temporarily covered. Children play together regardless of s$x until they are 3 or 4 years old and then they are separated and not allowed to be in public together.
The same is true for men and women. The Mangaian culture believes that men have a higher s$x drive than women, and as a result, men will brag about having so much s$x with a woman that it wore her down or she lost weight because of the physical exertion of the activity.
As girls grow up and start masturbating and having s$x, the female orgasm is thought to be something that girls have to learn. Older women will sometimes teach girls how to orgasm, or they will learn from the boys they have s$x with.
If a girl has s$x with a boy who does not make her orgasm, that is looked at negatively for the boy and he will get a poor reputation in the town. The girl will then go have s$x with another boy who will then hopefully bring her to the climax and he will show her how to do so.
Even though it seems to be a s$xually liberated society, there are still cases of beatings and s$xual violence towards women.
Most of the information that we know about Mangaia Island was found in the 1970s, and thus it would be very interesting to see how it has changed in the last few years.
