    The document is a feminist critique of a story about a woman named Lumnay from the Cordillera tribe in the Philippines. According to the tribe's tradition, women must have children or their marriages are invalid. Lumnay was the best dancer in her village but could not have a child, so she faced criticism from the tribe for failing to fulfill this expectation. The tradition of the Cordillera tribe was to exile women who could not bear children, rejecting them from the community. The critique argues that this tradition undermines and criticizes women who are unable to have children due to circumstances outside of their control.

    The Wedding Dance

    a Feminist Critique
    By:: Margaux Sabangan

    In this story criticism is present towards their Tradition where in Lumnay was the best

    dancer in their Villege which is a tribe in cordillera and Awiyao was her Husband. Lumnay

    could’nt have a child and as their tradition says that if your married having a child is a must and

    if you couldn’t have a child your marriage is not valid in their tradition. In this story lumnay was

    criticized by not having a child.Womans in ther tribe were criticized because of something that

    their tribe wanted.Criticism is where you undercontrol,underpower a person that you think she or

    he cannot fight themselves.Cordillera tribe has their tradition that whenever you will not have a

    child your not welcome to their villege anymore,your out of their ways.As lumnay feel she was

    criticized because she cannot give awiyao a child and in this situation all womens that cant give

    birth are to be called others by their relatives,friends and even family.Even you are the most

    beautiful person on their tribe you’ll still not be included on their tribe if you will not give

    birth.In life there is always something that will put us into danger or may give us situation that

    we cant handle.
