xhosa

 

This stamp shows a Xhosa woman and traditional beadwork.  It could also be considered x-rated - at least in Canada and USA?!

  1. I certainly wouldn't send this stamp to the USA!

    My X are here. Maybe I cheated a bit :)

  2. Great stamp, which, as you point out, would not be issued in many countries of the world. My X is here: https://envelope100.blogspot.com/2026/01/its-still-xmas-peguins.html

  3. X is one of the click sounds in their language. I used to know a lot about them as part of a social science course (a very long time ago) but the sound of their name is nearly all I can remember now!

  5. It's not the beadwork Americans would be noticing, but it's impressive. We are too hung up on "nudity." Even nursing mothers are hassled, against laws protecting them.
