Culture can be considered a living creature. With the progression of time, certain aspects and practices of a culture become unnecessary or become unpopular with the changing population. As new ideas are adopted by a society, older ideas lose favor or are in conflict with the new ideas.
For instance, adherents to Jewish culture are forbidden to eat the flesh of animals that are proclaimed unclean, but Christianity, an offshoot of Judaism, does not follow this cultural practice as it is seen as outdated and not applicable.
Another example of a cultural practice that was abolished (for most nations) is slavery. In previous times, the concept of slavery was acceptable as it provided labor, and put conquered populations to work that would otherwise be idle and possibly revolt against the conquerors. However, with the idea of liberty, freedom, and democracy, slavery lost favor and has been largely abolished.
The question of whether puberty rites should be abolished is complex and depends on cultural context. While some rites can be valuable for fostering community and marking important life transitions, others may involve harmful practices that violate individual rights or health. It is essential to critically assess each rite, promoting those that empower and support youth while advocating for the abolition of harmful practices. Ultimately, a balance between cultural preservation and the protection of individual well-being is necessary.
