Our world faces various crisis ranging from the physical to which almost everyone could relate, up to the social and political landscapes. What are deafening are the cries and shouts of minors who become the victim of wars and hungers. Whether they are crying for help or in pain, most of us can’t do something. Let’s face it. There are stories around the corners of our planet to which we haven’t known yet, and if we ever did—we just heard it and not seen it.
If we can eat because of the resources around us, we should be thankful for we could work for our good and there are some things that we could work for. But somewhere in this world are places which were economically challenge, even forcing the people to do the unlikely acts for gaining.
Today, we present you a different story of boys in Afghanistan who are also known as the ‘dancing boys.’ The content may come explicit or unlikely to kids, but this story happens in reality.
We look into the depths. of the Afghan country to unravel this story that might surprise you too. Bacha bazi has been a tradition found across the country where boys were dressed as women and were taught to perform. Some are as young as ten are usually abused by the men and passed around after the parties.
Spreading across the Afghanistan, guest bidding follows after parties for a night with one of the boys. Behind the devout exterior, this country is holding a secret. In an Islamic country where s3x with women is forbidden before marriage, many men would look up to these ‘play boys’ for company.
While the government of Afghanistan tried to eradicate this dwelling, there are existing private gatherings that is still promoting this s3x slavery for s3xual gratification. One of the boys tell, that they are stolen from their family and made to be a ‘bacha bereesh.’ While some of them tried to escape even from before, only few managed to get out.
The bottom line of this reality is poverty which driven some people to raise a bacha bazi in the last 15 years. Predators have been very keen in choosing young boys on the streets even enticing their families with promises of education and fortune.
In some circles, it is prestigious to have your own boy as it is seen as a marker of your power and wealth. While the nationwide investigation about these boys continues, the practice remains ‘shameful.’
