Yesterday I was searching YouTube for interesting videos when I came across Bride kidnapping in Kyrgyzstan.
Ala kachuu meaning “grab and run.
Men in rural Kyrgyzstan still believing marrying the old fashioned way – by kidnapping the bride!! To them this is no big deal as they believe the custom comes from an ancient time, which makes this acceptable in their society. The video here shows the whole kidnapping process and the wedding. Once they reach the venue after kidnapping the bride, the elders try to coax the girl in accepting this marriage. The ending leaves me confused as the bride finally accepts, smiles and even tries to impress the elders. I am still trying to understand what exactly she must be thinking or feeling.
This is just so not right.

I didn’t know what Hooters was. I have heard it being mentioned a couple of times in movie but I never really made an effort to find out. So yesterday when I read about the rape-joke-fiasco by Hooters (which they claimed was done by hackers), I finally decided to Google and understand what the hullabaloo is all about.
From the search result I understood that it’s a sports bar and dining restaurant. Ok, so what’s the big deal. It was then I clicked on Google Images that I realized what Hooters is all about. And let me tell you, they definitely are not famous for their chicken wings.
Way to go woman empowerment!! :S

In India once upon a time marriages were classified into 8 possible types, not all of which were however considered acceptable by the society. One of them was called Rakshasa Vivah in which the bride was forcibly abducted after killing or wounding her family members. Maybe what this video presents here is a continuation of that old practice. Who knows? But it is totally unacceptable in today's day and age.
yeah, in today's age it's just barbaric to kidnap and force someone to marry.
Thanks for writing in.
That's barbaric and condemnable.
true, I wonder how they will ever stop this.
Oops to imagine it haopenng even today :-/
