Abstract: | Aim is to prove that the conclusion that the position of women in traditional Shona society is in all aspects inferior to that of men, is superficial. This is done by a description of her position in economics and marriage; her relationship with some relatives; the Shona man's image of woman and the Shona attitude to virginity, adultery, divorce and polygamy.
