What is a Rite of Passage?

Welcome to 'What is a Rite of Passage?'I'm your host, Damien Smith.I've been involved in Rites of Passage for 10 years and there is so much I don't yet know.My primary focus here is on the ceremonies, rituals and processes used to mark the transition from boyhood to manhood.We also cover the topics of menswork, teenage girls initiation, menopause and the various other thresholds humans cross to move from one state of being to another,after which there is no return.
