Then you don't move onto the other milestones... Or basically, you haven't started your milestones yet. 

I believe some men can skip one and two and even jump to five or any for that matter. Lol

Not in the Hmong culture and #1 is a must, critical step to the others.

Yes 3 more to go... and #3..is flexible, you can specialized in something as long as it helps the clan/others   Ex:  HmongRock in chopping meat..that's a valuable asset.

Don’t seem fair at all. Who comes up with these stipulations?

I think every culture wants the same thing as these stipulation and step #1 is critical because the elders want to encourage marriage...and when you get marry, have kids, you starts to have responsibility and responsibility makes a man into a leader and so on and on and on....

Some primitives.... ???
That's because you don't know and when you don't know they're "primitive" to you.

Chopping meat, not required.  If you want to be a meej koob, yes.  If you want to play the qeej, no.  If you want to be a txiv xaiv, yes.  Limitations like that.  But if you're married, you can do them all....no limitation.

Milestone #1 - Get marry
Milestone #2 - Have Children
BE A FATHER
Milestone #3 -Help the Clan (Specialized in one area of the Hmong cultures/traditions so you can be beneficial to the clan and others.  Ex:  Learn to play the qeej so you can help at funeral, learn txiv xaiv, learn something...so you can be useful except do nothing
BE A FATHER
Milestone #4-Take leadership role
BE A FATHER
Milestone #5 -How do you say this in Hmong - Ua nom ua tswv

Agree?
