Forums - General Discussion - "Bacha Bazi" is on the rise in Afghanistan (18+)

Note: this is a very serious thread so please no trolling or making jokes.

For those who are not familiar with "Bacha Bazi" it means "Playing With Boys" or "Boy Play". In which prepubescent and adolescent boys are sold to wealthy or powerful men for entertainment and sexual activities. This business thrives in Afghanistan, where many men keep them as status symbols. Some of the individuals involved report being forced into sex. The authorities are barely attempting to crack down on the practice but many doubt it would be effective since many of the men are powerful and well-armed former commanders.

I have been hearing about it makes me sad. Thought that video it reminds me of geisha.

It's another reason why I think it best to keep religion and government separate.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

There isn't a shred of good coming out of bush 'obamas wars. Check their prison populations. Check their court systems. Look at the torture of suspects. There is nothing defendable about that government system. Everyone died for nothing.



Ruined country when we went in ruined country when we left what did you expect?

You'd think the Islam centric government would crack down on this. Huh.
