It is wrong, but in that culture, it seems fine to them. To Americans, it seems wrong to walk around in just a cloth. Yanomamo people don't think so though. They probably think Americans are dumb for spending money on nice fancy clothes and cars, when they do fine in just a little cloth. It is hard though to look at it as if you have never lived in a modern day country. We are always prejudice because we live in one of the best countries on earth. In order to completely understand though, we should look at it as if we have never seen any other cultures.
