- Abstract
This paper discusses issues related to traditional expressions used by the Minangkabau people in educating their women. The expression is sumbang duo baleh. which is an expression that are loaded with the values of local content education. The emphasis is on women, because the problem of women with all their dynamics, is always interesting to be discussed by the Minangkabau people. That is because the Minangkabau people place women as (very) special. These virtues can be seen from several things, for example: (1) determination of lineage according to maternal lineage (matriarchy) and (2) heritance that goes straight to women. Because of this very special position, the demands on Minangkabau women are also high. Minangkabau custom gives certain restrictions and demands to Minangkabau women. These restrictions and demands are included in a traditional expression that is loaded with educational values, which is the sumbang duo baleh. With this expression, Minangkabau women are educated and instructed so that they are able to live their lives as privileged people.
