By the time OTML started gold mining operations the Wopkaimin had shifted to roadside villages with women in subsistence gardening and men participating as wage laborers in a transnational economic enclave. Gender distinctions in labor continued to be rather strict with men selling their labor for a wage and women taking on a greater share of subsistence production, a pattern which spread among the southern Mountain Ok of the socio-ecological region. However, unlike the Fegolmin (Polier 1990), Wopkaimin women were not smallscale commodity producers. Women did not produce market vegetables for sale to OTML, nor did they sell portions of their garden production at the Saturday Tabubil market. Rather, it was the Wopkaimin who purchased the subsistence crops and fresh pork sold by the Ningerum and other southern Mountain Ok producers at the Tabubil market.
