The passage indicates that -----.

The Agta Negritos of the Philippines, a present-day
tribal people, are an example of a culture whose
women and men share all subsistence activities. Most
interestingly, the Agta Negritos women hunt large
game with bows, arrows, and hunting dogs. The
women are prevented from hunting only during late
pregnancy and the first few months after giving birth.
Teenagers and women with older children are the most
frequent hunters. The women space their children to
allow for maximum mobility. They keep their birth rate
down through the use of herbal contraceptives. By
studying these ethnographic examples and by
questioning the assumptions that have been made
about female and male roles in prehistory,
anthropologists have concluded that Western society's
traditionally low view of women's status is by no means
universal.
