This research seeks to highlight the gender inequality brought by some of the rituals and traditions practised by South African Nguni cultures. It seeks to work as a mediator or a mouth for the parties that are being treated unfairly by these cultures. A study of multiple literary texts was conducted in order to be fully informed and equipped about the topic. The findings show that despite the 28 years of South Africa’s constantly evolving democracy, the LGBTQI+ community is still vaguely recognised by customary law, whereas women and children are subservient. In light of these findings, a viable recourse would be for traditional authorities and scholars to consolidate and re-amend customary laws, and to sift out the obsolete and prejudice. mz2026 African Languages MA (African Languages) Unrestricted SDG-05: Gender equality 2023-02-08T13:36:32Z 2023-02-08T13:36:32Z 2023-04 2022 Dissertation * A2023 https://repository.up.ac.za/handle/2263/89346 en © 2022 University of Pretoria.
