WATCH NEXT: VICE World News spoke to a survivor of sexual assault to find out what more needs to be done to protect and support victims of sexual violence within the Islamic school setting. - th-cam.com/video/ubdOFzXY4C0/w-d-xo.html
Sounds interesting! I'd also enjoy seeing a followup to this particular documentary, finding the couple married in this show, and seeing what their thoughts are now on bride kidnapping -- it's been over a decade since this documentary first aired.
Wtf!!!!! This’s straight up lies!!! I’m from Saudi Arabia there’s 0% of SA in our schools bcuz IT’S NOT MIXED we only have all girls or all boys school
This’s shocking how u ppl would shamelessly accuse islam of the things that happens routinely in ur non muslim countries in my muslim country it’s a CRIM to even cat call women even asking for a woman’s number is considered illegal us muslim women feel the safest in our countries unlike the women in western and non muslim countries the statistics of sexual assault are over the roof yet u have the audacity to make these videos against islam i mean we know it’s a propaganda but unfortunately many ignorants believe it
actually inform yourself before assuming something idiotic. The horrid sexual assualt is forbiden and seen as a major sin to do with Islam because you are harming someone's well being. Disrespect to a religion because you cant tell the difference is real ignorant. I mean how can the historian be more informed about the reality than you?
I'm from Kyrgyzstan. I am Kyrgyz. This is a very wild tradition that is disappearing because girls and women no longer want to tolerate it in our country! And I'm glad of that. They also tried to steal me, but I fought with everyone and still left. I am confident that this cruel tradition will soon disappear.
it's even scarier when you realize that someone could actually be kidnapping a girl in plain sight with no intention of marrying her and people would just think that it's the tradition.
The girl being kidnapped and then 3 men holding her, her yelling mom. My heart broke, I felt so helpless like how she was feeling at that moment. Almost cried.
@Shadowfeather-sb4vc ikr all these fake democrats say they feel bad for other cultures, but when it comes to eating dog and stuff like this, they instantly change their views to fit conservative american morales
“But if the men don’t kidnap, they might never get married”. If the only way for a man to get married is for him to kidnap someone, then that’s a sign that he shouldn’t get married.
@@condeuiosandilixtos7858 No its about Kidnapping, raping he would get huge Problems wit other family, but kidnapping they tolerate becouse of virgin stupednes. Not that they dont rape every girl they can get without to much trouble afterwords. they have absolutly no feelings and empathy, completly cruel.
Malacki655 2.0 literally!!! A certain belief or an action having a lot of followers or believers doesn’t make it moral or ethical. The what are you gonna do it’s their tradition comments are cancerous
But when society normalizes the act, be it cruel or not, then it does become a "tradition" and culture. Same way crazy cults are formed that torture humans.
@@cheesepuffffff yeah, I can only feel so bad, when she's culpable in her own daughter's death. what kind of a parent would let their kid go through something like that.
@@cheesepuffffff No she didn't allowed the kidnapping. It is stated in the video that they event took their daughter on the next day, however their cousins pressured them saying that it is not right to take the bride and because of the pressure they give in and blessed the marriage. It is just sad that tradition is above their religion and law.
This actually happened to two female tourists a few years back, they got their national embassy involved and were able to return home after about a week.
No. They kiddnapp only women they know. Not strangers. Cmon a little bit of common sens. A tradition is something that belong to them and they societies. So they know each other and the plan everything.... well there is a foreigner in the town who look extact like the bride to be... Ouch! Bad for her
@Number wa an A tradition that no woman wants to follow, as seen in some of these cases, if they don't believe in these traditions than why would she follow it? Is thet hard to understand? or are you stupid
Grubby bum yeah I was thinking the same thing she acting like it was there fault she committed suicide but if they would have just ignored there “cousins” and took there daughter back she wouldn’t of hanged herself
@@grubbybum3614 Honestly, when you live within a culture, you think in the terms that culture gives you. She probably really hoped it'd turn out well, only getting a reality check when it was forced upon her.
no one's gonna talk about her "friend"? she knew her friend's dream to finish school and become a lawyer yet she lured her into that marriage. And please, the way the grooms men was touching the bride to keep her from moving.
@@vegasfinest702 Righttttt....because "everyone gets married like this there" means that every single woman there should accept and be happy with the fact that they're being kidnapped.. I bet you would want to live there and be kidnapped too, don't you?
@@mfhoss9570 no I'm talking about the old lady that lost her daughter. The same lady you were talking about. She didn't fight one bit and just relented right away like "k i guess you have my daughter now." So it's hard for me to feel bad for her.
i actually ended up showing middle finger at phone screen when she cried... she totally listened to society when she should've stood by her side specially when the child said that the man was not a good person. but she chose to go with the society. i so much would've wanted to punch her face if she was doing that drama near me.
She got kidnapped, then they found her, AND THEN SHE GAVE HER BACK WILLINGLY. to be raped and held hostage. Then you know he just kidnapped another bride.. Disgusting. Maybe she should have thought twice as a mother doing that to her baby girl.... That poor fucking girl. I feel bad for HER, not the mother that fucking GAVE HER TO HIM.
@@Supermaninpyjama What do you expect to happen when, as was stated in the video, a society works so hard to make girls obedient from the moment they can probably communicate. Peer pressure, cultural pressure, are things that have effected all people at some point to some degree, unfortunatelythe ramifications can be severe and devastating. How hypocritical and ignorant of you to imbue yourself with so much superiority when you'd stoop so low as to kick someone while they're down. She's going to feel guilty for the rest of her life, no keyboard-coward has the right to pretend to be more upset about something she actually *has* to survive.
The Little Blerdmaid I bet you she wasn’t crying when they took her, a mother should always be protecting her kids at all costs no matter what culture or religion bs you deal with. She let them take her away knowing she didn’t want to, she failed as a parent in my opinion.
You’re wrong. In my country they also used to kidnap brides but nowadays they do it less because they pay a fine for that now, which most of them can not afford, although some pay it willingly. Anyways, you’re wrong about what you said about her mother, she probably didn’t think it was necessary or good for her daughter when they gave her back to the kidnapper. She says in the video, the cousins etc put pressure on them, telling the « it’s tradition ! You’re wrong you shouldn’t take her back ! ». She didn’t develop it but as it was also in my country’s tradition to kidnap brides I can tell you for sure that she didn’t want to give her daughter back but couldn’t do otherwise because she’s a woman and she has to OBEY. So when the male cousins / older men in the family got angry about them bringing their daughter back, when they scolded the girl’s dad for doing so, when they brought up « it’s tradition! » the girl’s dad probably felt ashamed in front of the elder men (cousins, uncles..) and in those societies you HAVE TO respect older men and DO what they tell you to do, the dad probably decided to give the girl back to the kidnaper and the mom couldn’t do anything about it but accept it because SHE IS A WOMAN and she CAN NOT argue with her husband and other men in the family. If she talks back or disobeys she can be beaten or anyways, the men can just bring the girl back to the kidnaper’s house forcefully even if the mother is against. Anyways, I can guarantee you that this mom wasn’t happy about giving her daughter back autherwise they wouldn’t have even brought her home in first place. She just had to accept it because she’s a woman and she can not do anything because men decide and she has to obey. No one can understand her sorrow except those who went through the same thing. That thing happened to my aunt, she was kidnapped and run away but her uncle forced her to get married to her kidnapper whom she didn’t even knew.
Kyrgyzstan has changed a lot in 2015 after a big scandal. The police stopped ignoring these crimes and imprisoning people. Both on TV and at school they began to tell people that this was a bad custom and to make films about it.
@@wisteriafleur3522 I think he is talking about that case when girl got killed in the process. I also recommend y'all to take VICE info with a grain of salt since they like to make scandalous things from each country and present it like it is very common thing when it's not. For 48,500 marriages in 2022 there were 500 kidnappings that year. That thing being illegal cannot be en masse.
Unless somebody here is from that culture, nobody can really talk about it. You can't speak about things unless you are versed in them. Otherwise you don't know what the hell you are talking about. I can only speak about it from an American perspective, and an American perspective on a Kyrgyzstan tradition is irrelevant
That is WILDDDD. Can you imagine you're just going to get some milk and bread and someone just kidnaps you and takes you to their family and tries to marry you in your errand running clothes? I cannot believe this is a real tradition.
do you know it took them so long to convert to islam? like the 17th century. and krygz people barely practice islam cus of the soviet suppression of religion. @@phoenixj1299
I imagine the “kidnapping” where the presenter was witness to was consensual (in the video, the men are seen to instruct the woman how the kidnapping will unfold and that she can beat them if she likes) but she is putting up some resistance to keep the appearances I guess (so that it does not seem to be preplanned to the rest of the community). I cannot imagine the camera crew being willful participants in an actual kidnapping of a stranger as it happens in other cases, just for filming purposes.
The worst thing is the fact that those old grandmas besides her are taking it as a some sort of joke even though they've felt the same feeling of being kidnapped without you knowing anything about it before.
I don't think they were married the same way since, as it was mentioned in the video, due to communism such traditional/religious practises were forbidden. Although, I think they actually knew that girl wanted to marry him in the end (since they were already a couple) and she was just pretending to not want to get kidnapped in order to not let others believe that she was desperate to get married by complying from the start (again I'm not entirely sure that is 100% sure about this but, in the end, I think the girl was smiling and accepting the whole thing...)
My mother was also a victim of this kidnapping, she still tells us how she was mistreated and how my biological father beat her when he was in a bad mood, but thank goodness now we live separately
:( I'm so sorry to hear that. ... Your mother might be a strong woman. Most of the victims can't do this. They just give up. Like the girl from the video.
@@artemkh8944 This tradition existed for example in Georgia too. It still does, but mostly in villages and not often anymore, fortunately. Very rarely. Georgians have developed.
But at the same time this is to spread awareness, they wouldn't agree to record this if the dude and the camera guy had stopped them, so what could they do? They'll just kidnap her again while refusing to record this.
prashant kalli from the UN International Human Rights Laws “Human rights are rights inherent to all human beings, regardless of race, sex, nationality, ethnicity, language, religion, or any other status. Human rights include the right to life and liberty, freedom from slavery and torture, freedom of opinion and expression, the right to work and education, and many more. Everyone is entitled to these rights, without discrimination.”
The fact that nobody in this video really cared about her and just laughed at her for being kidnapped and taken away everyone laughed at her in the whole entire video which is very sad.
“All girls must get married” “Calm down, you’ll be happy” Words cannot describe how thankful I am to not have to go through this. I feel so so bad for her.😭
Right? I have no idea what I'd do if I was in that situation. But at least that girl did want to marry that man, even if it wasn't right there and then. I feel worse for the others who are kidnapped by men they don't want and forcefully married and raped.
Kixi They have no choice but to agree. They are shunned by their entire community if the disgusting ritual is completed and they refuse to play happy families. It's either play along or be homeless/honour killed. This is beyond vile. Where are NATO when human rights abuses like this take place? The first women is a perfect example of what Stockholm syndrome looks like.
@@camacho_roman_costume Ah okay, so anyone who you are currently dating could just kidnap you and force you into marriage, yeah sure that seems totally reasonable to me.....oh wait, actually thats horrible and yeah sure she was so faking it, what about the girl that hung herself, is she also faking it, man thats some good act she has going on.....i dont like you defending that shit in any way, you should know better.
I reckon there’s a lot of intimidation and pressure that goes on. Her friend didn’t look that willing to participate and when they were trying to drag the girl out of the car, her friends tried to get hold of her to keep her in and one of the boys forced her hands off her. It’s easy for us to say she helped, but chances are she didn’t really have much of a choice
'Your a girl, all girls get married.' imagine being kidnapped by a bunch of men, all your family watching and laughing, being held down in a car, and being told that. Jesus.
@@callmerespect9177 Tradition is dead. Kyrgyzstan is a wonderful country without dumb tradition. This Video is propaganda. The tradition was never like shown in the Video.
This so-called kidnapping is just a game. The bride and the groom already know each other and they make the plan. Different countries have different traditions. Indian brides are suppose to be shy and cry before leaving their houses for the groom's. If they don't, aunties talk behind them. I think it is similar in Kirgizstan. Brides are suppose to throw tantrum during kidnapping or aunties will gossip. That girl was also putting a show. But when the food is served, it means the show is over. Girls are just dramatic no matter where they are from.
@@abhijeetkundu2271i just hope that you be in the position of this brides someday. then you can talk about how fun this “game” is, and the girls are just dramatic creatures.
broadcast star Smh.....Imagine being married to someone for 12 years and then all the sudden they want a divorce. Alimony and half of everything you worked so hard for goes to them....and they didn’t contribute to any of your weath.....that’s scary.
scareface936 12 years in a marriage sounds like a good couple to me also it’s better then being forced against your will and shoved into a car by 5 grown men saying it’ll be okay.
@@THELASTREALKING93 ...i dont know. I've heard this arguement made a lot of times and it always confused me. And i always ask them this quiestion-"Do you believe men and women should be given equal opportunities in life,career wise, job wise,etc" Because if you dont think that women should be paid the same as men for the same job, then you dont get to make that arguement. A lot of women choose to quit their jobs and stay at home to raise their kids,in which case they are trusting their husbands to take care of them financially. Now if the man decided he wanted to divorce his wife, but the wife had not been to work in years cause she was busy taking care of him and his wife, she would not have the financial stability to live a normal life. I agree that there are a lot of gold diging women who are terribe people. But the same goes for men. There are men who are terrible people who would do unspeakable things to women(dont deny it, ) and also, there is also the problem of maternity leave. Do you have any idea what kind of toll pregnancy takes on womens bodies?? And now imagine having to go back to work before youre fully recovered. P.S, if she wants a divorce after putting up with him for 12 years, then theres prolly something else to it
@@realy7392 being racist means not liking someone for the skin color hence the word race what does her not agreeing to the culture have to do with race
@@justanotherarmy8607 It's not just skin color, it's the race or country they come from in general (or the circumstance that happened when they were born). but i do agree, not agreeing with a culture has nothing to do with race at all.
Sadly my mom was kidnapped too. My dad only saw her twice in his life and decided to kidnap her in a car with his friends. The saddest part is that if the woman rejects in our culture by calling her dad/brother to pick her up ,for example, the man´s family side spread it around so that the woman will never be able to marry someone because of the ´´shame´´. It happend in West Europe and my mother was illegally married at the age of 16/17
Nope. Everyone can have their own beliefs but no one can force their own beliefs on others in actions that affect them like this. Nations don’t matter. Otherwise, if the man’s tradition is kidnapping the bride, then the bride can say that her tradition is killing the man who kidnapped her.
@Yunus Hailey You can continue your tradition in a way that affects only yourself and those who wants to be affected. Just because you care about your national identity doesn't mean others in your country do, and they have a right not to subscribe to the identity and abandon the culture. I know I don't care about my country and its culture, and other people in other countries can also choose to feel the same way if they want. No one should be identified by their country anyways, unless they as an individual wants to.
@Yunus Hailey Your tradition is cruel and evil. Every tradition is just an idea that began in the past. Once we used to put black cats in a wooden box, and smash the box and the cat because of superstition. That nonsense was repeated for hundreds of years, and it even lives on today, but the wooden box is now painted and the content is candy. Still utterly stupid. Just because an idea is old, it doesn't make it good. On the contrary, it's stupid not to take old ideas up to revision. That is how a society and a people improve themselves. That is the very reason every country - including yours - has extinct traditions in the first place. Otherwise, we would still perform some stupid nonsense going back to the stone-age, simply because "Well it's tradition".
I am a girl and I live in Kyrgyzstan. To tell the truth this so called "tradition" makes me sad at the same time angry. Because bride kidnapping is not just phisical forcement but also psychological, moral. I am glad that it started to be taken seriously by government. There are laws and restrictions about bride kidnapping however it is still practiced in villages.

As a girl I'm crying with her so much that my fingers are shaking with a blurry vision. Some traditions should be buried with the ancient times please everyone have some human rights and it's against it
I don’t care if it’s a tradition, this is absolutely disgusting. No girl deserves this, even if she wants to be married. the stress and trauma that these men have gave her is awful.
Mlle Chromosome I feel like the friend was pressured into it. If she refused she would be against tradition which result in people against her. You can tell on her face she did not want to do this
I don’t see how the mother can try to convince the girls to marry their son, when they were probably kidnapped. How could they let another woman go through that? Why would they want to experience that?
Maybe propably dont see anything else fun in life, than try to convince this young woman be his wife. Is it that Kyrgz people just chill in their Kyrgz lands with not needing to do much anything.
There are higher abuse rates in those families. If you have been coerced your whole married life and live in fear, there’s no telling what you would do.
@@darlingmis Nah it ain't like that anymore, maybe hundred years ago it was happening, but not now. "Kidnapping" is mostly away for a couple to marry each other if parents of girl doesn't give request to the boy to marry their daughter. It is prohibited by law to kidnap and marry someone.
@@expensivegurl1112 Yes and no. The man said that she's his girlfriend and so they're planning to get married. So it's not like they were kidnapping a stranger. But at the same time, he and his girlfriend said she doesn't know she was going to be kidnapped before getting married (she said she thought she's gonna get married in a different way), so it wasn't staged. It's still a kidnapping.
The mother crying because of her daughter who committed suicide changed the whole vibe of the video for me. I tought that the kidnapping was mostly already mutually agreed on. So it’s very sad that there is still some cases of this happening
I cried when she was telling her story, it's so heartbreaking. In the other case at least they knew each other but the wedding still interrupted her life plans
@@sklewafe i figured the kidnapping element was like “im going to come randomly get you one day from your home and on that day we will get married” yk “Kidnapping” just agreed on
@Red October its not even about being western its just knowing what morally good and whats not. This? Not it. Pedophilia is looked down upon and bullshit if you think they dont do that shit just as much in other countries but western countries speak about issues. I wasnt even born in the west but I'm aware of issues.
you have done a great job documenting this but it made me so deeply disturbed because of how raw and real this is. I am sorry I have a sensitive heart, so I could not finish the video. Thank you for bringing this in the light.
I did some research , this practice Does not existe anymore , iT only existed in some small villages in the first place . But now it doesn't , so pls just be happy , and calme you sensitive Heart ❤❤❤.
Imagine this, all the these women were kidnapped, they got older with time... and these same older women joining the tradition and still continue doing it to young girls. They know the pain, but they still do it, even tho it happen to them too. And those young girls you saw kidnapped in the video, will eventually get old... and they will do it for their son too. Amazing!!!
I live in this country. older women think that it is necessary that this is a tradition. They do not even think it could be otherwise. The young generation of girls now does not want to be abducted. People who live in the capital are very modern especially the younger generation. in 2013 a law was passed on the illegality of the abduction. Nowadays, there are less and less abductions. But there are still people who think that this is a tradition. The girl and the boy are introduced to the parents before the wedding. If they like each other they marry. We will not be able to become such an open and tolerant country as the United States and European countries. But progress is the younger generation wants to change.
@@Comebackherein2050 I think a solution might the leaving of the younger generations to capital cities at a young age for example for school or work, so they can't abduct the girls. If they have finished school and got married with their consent, they can consider going back to their village. Btw I'm Turkish and our language sounds so much alike, but the culture is very different.
Or may be try to be nice to them after they new that there is a foreigner filming documentary about their culture or She except as custom. Even she said its not a right time to get married but what to do. Already happened.
@@___xyz___ the comment I was replying to, where he was laughing at women being literally kidnapped and forced to marry against their will, got deleted. But let me be clear, if hoping that this absolute degenerate, depraved, disgusting “tradition” and the culture that accepts it evolves out of existence makes me a colonizer, I’ll happily wear that label.
@Jooliuspoolius Yeah. Let's show these women the righteous, holy social structure of western democracy that unironically believes a man can turn into a woman lol
@@sueb2898 no honey islam doesn't force people to get mary or kidnapping. it's illegal and forbidden in Islam. STOP being racist Some of arab follows stuff like this and say it's traditional but it's not, Like every place in the world. Remember racist person : some of people doesn't represent all.
The one thing that calmed me down just a bit was the reporter's comment in the end: "It seems like the real reason men kidnapped women in Kyrgizstan is the same reason they do questionable stuff anywhere, the same reason a dog licks its balls - because they can. Which of course is the oldest and shittiest excuse in the world." Thank you for not being all culturally correct, I needed him to piss on this stupid tradition.
DaFaQ pRuShUnT They literally have no choice. Their lives will be hell, otherwise. They’re LITERALLY under mind control. Propaganda and brain washing. Like Stockholm Syndrome. Patriarchy and men suppressing women at its finest, as usual. (& I fucking HATE modern-day FemiNazi Liberalism). But it’s just the truth, here. & Stating that truth, isn’t feminism, or Liberal. Have to say that preemptively, before someone gets butthurt by this truth. LOL “It is what it is”. (One of my fav sayings).
wiptide It’s especially fucked up because some of these women love the men. They already agreed to/wanted to marry them. They simply didn’t want to be kidnapped! (Can you blame them)? & In this case here, the couple had talked about it, and he even promised her he would never do that to her when they were going to be getting married… But he did. They literally start their relationship off, by him being an untrustworthy, lying piece of shit who can’t keep his word from the get go. If they don’t think that plants a seed in these poor women’s heads, it does. (Doubt they care)...It is so fucked up. *Not only that, but it is disrespectful to the men themselves* ! Because if you have to kidnap a woman to get her to marry you, then you’re a sorry ass motherfucker LOL don’t you want somebody to marry you because they want to?! Not selling yourself short by forcing somebody?! So really these guys are disrespecting themselves, even more so. But are too stupid and engrained in their cultures and heads, too see it. 😔
I feel like the term Arranged is being misunderstood. The process works by both parents of the two bringing the two lovers together. If the two lovers love each other then the marriage proceeds. Nowadays the western thinks arranged is forced when it true meaning isn’t.
Cathleen FLUFFY BONBON ok, to be honest, in Kyrgyzstan there are such a few places, I mean now, that allow THAT. Because even here, kyrgyz people understand that it’s insane and ofc illegal. I don’t mean that it doesn’t happen, because you know assholes always will be around, but now the law is protecting women from that. They are REALLY protecting
Sometimes when it was wrong you should leave this. You know this was a sins. You know it is a bad thing. I know some tribes worship satan the way of their traditional. The way of their culture. But this was wrong and you should leave it alone.
"The poor girl yelling for her mom just broke my heart!" Look more carefully. .... 10:40 and 12:50 . ....She is a pretty good actress though. (I'm sure that bride kidnapping is a real and serious issue in Kyrgyzstan; but a great many of them are actually staged by the agreement of the young men and women because the brides' families do not approve of their daughters' choices in fiances. In other words, many of these "kidnappings" are ritualized elopements, and there's no particular incentive on the part of the brides to admit this to anyone -- including foreign film crews. ....The only solution is for civil society groups in Kyrgyzstan to more aggressively promote the idea of grown women being able to OPENLY choose their own husbands and more generally to pursue romantic relationships without being slut-shamed.)
This is absolutely heartbreaking. These woman are victims of kidnapping & sexual assault in front of many witnesses but yet nothing is done. My own grandmother was a victim of this crime & it was permitted by her own family. It just absolutely breaks my heart that these crimes are still happening to young women today.
I watched a Japanese reality show called Ainori. It’s about Japanese singles who travel across certain countries and fall in love. One of their trips was in Kyrgyzstan. The cast members learned about bride kidnapping and they used this video as an example. They downplayed it and made it seem as if she knew what was happening and was a willing participant. When they showed how she was doing at that point in time (2018) she said that she was very happy and was in love with her husband. Despite her saying that, seeing that happen and hearing her call out to her mom and cry while everyone around her is laughing just really makes me sick to my stomach
"Because it's tradition" alone is probably the most backwards and destructive mentality anyone can have. Yes, that was done in the past. But WHY was it done, given the context of the era in which its practice began, and does that context still apply to the present day? Following the old ways without properly understanding the reasons why they are as they are is pointless unless you're a child who isn't old enough to know better yet, and does nothing but pay lip service to "honor" a time that has long since passed. It does not help you or your country move forward, it does not prove that you're better than the people that bring drugs and violence wherever they go, and it does nothing to even truly honor those traditions.
Our societies change so quickly, that we mentally can't keep up. Traditions, that meant to keep community alive and thriving are now obsolete, but it's impossible to change one's way of thinking as quickly. It worked for your parents, they want a good stable life for you, so they do to you, what what done with them. How do you explain "Mom, Dad, this sacred tradition that build your life is now obsolete and unnecessary. Trust me." The only thing that helps is education, and unfortunately, many traditions don't place enough value on it.
icy dawn female mutilation has nothing to do with religion, it’s a culture/tradition. I’m a Muslim woman and I don’t know any woman that has been through that.
I still believe in the inherent value of tradition, because so many traditions genuinely have good reasons behind them...but you're right, it's always important to think critically and ask why,
Well if you live there.....I recommend you move out or don't fall in love with someone when you living in some part where bride kidnapping is a tradition before you marriage.
Badr eddin lmao well go change the world lmao there’s a lot of lonely woman everywhere lol who ever makes it to the big time coming from small ass places like this?! Lol who or how many become doctors or lawyers?! Lmao keep it real that’s why she expected and she was dating the guy!!! What the fuck ever go save the world kid go save all the girls over there idiot they can’t help themselves
to be fair, he is a reporter. any sign that he's in disagreement, i'm sure the groomsmen will be quick to remove him from watching or recording. you have to build rapport with these people in order to capture the reality of the situation. it is obvious that the reporter felt truly uncomfortable with this tradition.
he was doing it to get footage, at the end he called the practice shitty. You have to understand he’s in a foreign country filming a cultural practice so if he disagreed there, they wouldn’t let him report on this issue. He couldn’t expose this practice for the rest of the world.
Yeah apparently their tradition is like a double edge sword that also can hurt them. For example remember that one dude that kidnaps some person sister and that dude get revenge by kidnapping the kidnapper sister as well and they gonna be like let call it a even.
If someone walked to me and said, "Look sir I kidnapped your daughter with the intent to marry her but I brought food to celebrate with you." I'd just punch him in the nose and call the cops.
@@Mr-Ad-196 I was speaking metaphorically. Also technically it's not legal there either. It's a culture thing not really a legal. Im just happy I don't live there.
This is not even an actual tradition. It was always considered a heavy crime in Central Asia. The actual "bride kidnapping" is when a guy and a girl really love each other, but her parents are against their marriage (because they were planning to marry their daughter to someone else), so the guy takes the girl and they escape together from their parents. People nowadays just misunderstand this tradition and some idiots kidnap girls they don't even know thinking that this was the way of their ancestors. creds from another guy~Edweed
I never knew how Stockholm syndrome works but now I do. smh if I had a daughter, kidnapping and psycho-ING by other oppressed women is not seduction and romance.
Nigel, I wonder where the feminists are in these situations. I mean these video clearly shows that there are women who get kidnapped and are forced to get marry, which is REAL oppression btw , meanwhile in the West you will see feminists claiming that women are being "oppressed" because they can't show their nipples in public. Like WTF?
Just imagine you are frightend every minute to be kidnapped when walking down the street, beeing on a meeting or party or fearing to be kidnapped out of your own home or beeing stuck somewhere and somebody tells you i kidnapp you for my son. Or imagine you have girl friend you want to marry, and other guy kidnappes here away (yes they do). Or mother doesent like your boy friend so she arrange kidnapping (by cruel, lazy alcoholic, yes also thos happens).

Sounds interesting! I'd also enjoy seeing a followup to this particular documentary, finding the couple married in this show, and seeing what their thoughts are now on bride kidnapping -- it's been over a decade since this documentary first aired.
Wtf!!!!! This’s straight up lies!!! I’m from Saudi Arabia there’s 0% of SA in our schools bcuz IT’S NOT MIXED we only have all girls or all boys school
This’s shocking how u ppl would shamelessly accuse islam of the things that happens routinely in ur non muslim countries in my muslim country it’s a CRIM to even cat call women even asking for a woman’s number is considered illegal us muslim women feel the safest in our countries unlike the women in western and non muslim countries the statistics of sexual assault are over the roof yet u have the audacity to make these videos against islam i mean we know it’s a propaganda but unfortunately many ignorants believe it
In Islam does not has such kind of kidnapping bro please do not belong your wrong opinion without adequate evidence!
actually inform yourself before assuming something idiotic. The horrid sexual assualt is forbiden and seen as a major sin to do with Islam because you are harming someone's well being. Disrespect to a religion because you cant tell the difference is real ignorant.
I mean how can the historian be more informed about the reality than you?
I'm from Kyrgyzstan. I am Kyrgyz. This is a very wild tradition that is disappearing because girls and women no longer want to tolerate it in our country! And I'm glad of that. They also tried to steal me, but I fought with everyone and still left. I am confident that this cruel tradition will soon disappear.
I'm so happy you fought and resisted pls don't forget that it's not part of Islam itself only a toxic tradition
Much love from a Muslim South African💞
Thank god you made it. Hope you can live a happy life after this.
Greetings from Malaysia
U must reserve the tradition.. It is very sweet and unique
@@firelord1202 No, this tradition is disgusting.
👏👏😇😇
it's even scarier when you realize that someone could actually be kidnapping a girl in plain sight with no intention of marrying her and people would just think that it's the tradition.
thats what I WAS THINKING like omg how do you differentiate between a wedding tradition and a possible gangrape???
I mean I would also consider this actually kidnapping a girl but true
Probably kidnapping with no intention of marrying is against the law
Yeah no, that's the thing! It might be difficult to tell whether someone is actually being kidnapped or not
Does without the marrying part make much of a difference? You mean without her consent right?
These are the moments you feel grateful for growing in the place you did

Yeah but people still have the blatant idiocy to cry about all the "oppression" in the west. It's ridiculous.

Maybe she should have thought twice as a mother doing that to her baby girl.... That poor fucking girl. I feel bad for HER, not the mother that fucking GAVE HER TO HIM.
@@Supermaninpyjama What do you expect to happen when, as was stated in the video, a society works so hard to make girls obedient from the moment they can probably communicate. Peer pressure, cultural pressure, are things that have effected all people at some point to some degree, unfortunatelythe ramifications can be severe and devastating.
How hypocritical and ignorant of you to imbue yourself with so much superiority when you'd stoop so low as to kick someone while they're down. She's going to feel guilty for the rest of her life, no keyboard-coward has the right to pretend to be more upset about something she actually *has* to survive.
The Little Blerdmaid I bet you she wasn’t crying when they took her, a mother should always be protecting her kids at all costs no matter what culture or religion bs you deal with. She let them take her away knowing she didn’t want to, she failed as a parent in my opinion.
You’re wrong. In my country they also used to kidnap brides but nowadays they do it less because they pay a fine for that now, which most of them can not afford, although some pay it willingly. Anyways, you’re wrong about what you said about her mother, she probably didn’t think it was necessary or good for her daughter when they gave her back to the kidnapper. She says in the video, the cousins etc put pressure on them, telling the « it’s tradition ! You’re wrong you shouldn’t take her back ! ». She didn’t develop it but as it was also in my country’s tradition to kidnap brides I can tell you for sure that she didn’t want to give her daughter back but couldn’t do otherwise because she’s a woman and she has to OBEY. So when the male cousins / older men in the family got angry about them bringing their daughter back, when they scolded the girl’s dad for doing so, when they brought up « it’s tradition! » the girl’s dad probably felt ashamed in front of the elder men (cousins, uncles..) and in those societies you HAVE TO respect older men and DO what they tell you to do, the dad probably decided to give the girl back to the kidnaper and the mom couldn’t do anything about it but accept it because SHE IS A WOMAN and she CAN NOT argue with her husband and other men in the family. If she talks back or disobeys she can be beaten or anyways, the men can just bring the girl back to the kidnaper’s house forcefully even if the mother is against. Anyways, I can guarantee you that this mom wasn’t happy about giving her daughter back autherwise they wouldn’t have even brought her home in first place. She just had to accept it because she’s a woman and she can not do anything because men decide and she has to obey. No one can understand her sorrow except those who went through the same thing. That thing happened to my aunt, she was kidnapped and run away but her uncle forced her to get married to her kidnapper whom she didn’t even knew.
Kyrgyzstan has changed a lot in 2015 after a big scandal. The police stopped ignoring these crimes and imprisoning people. Both on TV and at school they began to tell people that this was a bad custom and to make films about it.

I imagine the “kidnapping” where the presenter was witness to was consensual (in the video, the men are seen to instruct the woman how the kidnapping will unfold and that she can beat them if she likes) but she is putting up some resistance to keep the appearances I guess (so that it does not seem to be preplanned to the rest of the community). I cannot imagine the camera crew being willful participants in an actual kidnapping of a stranger as it happens in other cases, just for filming purposes.
The worst thing is the fact that those old grandmas besides her are taking it as a some sort of joke even though they've felt the same feeling of being kidnapped without you knowing anything about it before.
Brainwashing.
I don't think they were married the same way since, as it was mentioned in the video, due to communism such traditional/religious practises were forbidden. Although, I think they actually knew that girl wanted to marry him in the end (since they were already a couple) and she was just pretending to not want to get kidnapped in order to not let others believe that she was desperate to get married by complying from the start (again I'm not entirely sure that is 100% sure about this but, in the end, I think the girl was smiling and accepting the whole thing...)

This so-called kidnapping is just a game. The bride and the groom already know each other and they make the plan. Different countries have different traditions. Indian brides are suppose to be shy and cry before leaving their houses for the groom's. If they don't, aunties talk behind them. I think it is similar in Kirgizstan. Brides are suppose to throw tantrum during kidnapping or aunties will gossip. That girl was also putting a show. But when the food is served, it means the show is over. Girls are just dramatic no matter where they are from.

Because if you dont think that women should be paid the same as men for the same job, then you dont get to make that arguement. A lot of women choose to quit their jobs and stay at home to raise their kids,in which case they are trusting their husbands to take care of them financially.
Now if the man decided he wanted to divorce his wife, but the wife had not been to work in years cause she was busy taking care of him and his wife, she would not have the financial stability to live a normal life.
I agree that there are a lot of gold diging women who are terribe people. But the same goes for men. There are men who are terrible people who would do unspeakable things to women(dont deny it, )

Sadly my mom was kidnapped too. My dad only saw her twice in his life and decided to kidnap her in a car with his friends.

It happend in West Europe and my mother was illegally married at the age of 16/17
Its not that she had ‘accepted’ her fate when she gave in and ate whatever the mothers had offered. She was exhausted
Nope. Everyone can have their own beliefs but no one can force their own beliefs on others in actions that affect them like this. Nations don’t matter. Otherwise, if the man’s tradition is kidnapping the bride, then the bride can say that her tradition is killing the man who kidnapped her.

Just because you care about your national identity doesn't mean others in your country do, and they have a right not to subscribe to the identity and abandon the culture. I know I don't care about my country and its culture, and other people in other countries can also choose to feel the same way if they want. No one should be identified by their country anyways, unless they as an individual wants to.
@Yunus Hailey Your tradition is cruel and evil. Every tradition is just an idea that began in the past. Once we used to put black cats in a wooden box, and smash the box and the cat because of superstition. That nonsense was repeated for hundreds of years, and it even lives on today, but the wooden box is now painted and the content is candy. Still utterly stupid. Just because an idea is old, it doesn't make it good. On the contrary, it's stupid not to take old ideas up to revision. That is how a society and a people improve themselves. That is the very reason every country - including yours - has extinct traditions in the first place. Otherwise, we would still perform some stupid nonsense going back to the stone-age, simply because "Well it's tradition".

I don’t see how the mother can try to convince the girls to marry their son, when they were probably kidnapped. How could they let another woman go through that? Why would they want to experience that?
Because the women ( especially elderly) are brainwashed themselves
Well, in CIS countries wife abuse or this type of thing is usual thing. Most of our elder generation are brainwashed af and live by this “traditions”.
Maybe propably dont see anything else fun in life, than try to convince this young woman be his wife. Is it that Kyrgz people just chill in their Kyrgz lands with not needing to do much anything.
There are higher abuse rates in those families. If you have been coerced your whole married life and live in fear, there’s no telling what you would do.

Imagine this, all the these women were kidnapped, they got older with time... and these same older women joining the tradition and still continue doing it to young girls. They know the pain, but they still do it, even tho it happen to them too. And those young girls you saw kidnapped in the video, will eventually get old... and they will do it for their son too. Amazing!!!
I live in this country. older women think that it is necessary that this is a tradition. They do not even think it could be otherwise. The young generation of girls now does not want to be abducted. People who live in the capital are very modern especially the younger generation. in 2013 a law was passed on the illegality of the abduction. Nowadays, there are less and less abductions. But there are still people who think that this is a tradition. The girl and the boy are introduced to the parents before the wedding. If they like each other they marry. We will not be able to become such an open and tolerant country as the United States and European countries. But progress is the younger generation wants to change.
@@Comebackherein2050 I think a solution might the leaving of the younger generations to capital cities at a young age for example for school or work, so they can't abduct the girls. If they have finished school and got married with their consent, they can consider going back to their village.

It’s especially fucked up because some of these women love the men. They already agreed to/wanted to marry them. They simply didn’t want to be kidnapped! (Can you blame them)?
& In this case here, the couple had talked about it, and he even promised her he would never do that to her when they were going to be getting married… But he did.
They literally start their relationship off, by him being an untrustworthy, lying piece of shit who can’t keep his word from the get go. If they don’t think that plants a seed in these poor women’s heads, it does. (Doubt they care)...It is so fucked up.

(I'm sure that bride kidnapping is a real and serious issue in Kyrgyzstan; but a great many of them are actually staged by the agreement of the young men and women because the brides' families do not approve of their daughters' choices in fiances. In other words, many of these "kidnappings" are ritualized elopements, and there's no particular incentive on the part of the brides to admit this to anyone -- including foreign film crews. ....The only solution is for civil society groups in Kyrgyzstan to more aggressively promote the idea of grown women being able to OPENLY choose their own husbands and more generally to pursue romantic relationships without being slut-shamed.)

"Because it's tradition" alone is probably the most backwards and destructive mentality anyone can have.
Yes, that was done in the past. But WHY was it done, given the context of the era in which its practice began, and does that context still apply to the present day?
Following the old ways without properly understanding the reasons why they are as they are is pointless unless you're a child who isn't old enough to know better yet, and does nothing but pay lip service to "honor" a time that has long since passed. It does not help you or your country move forward, it does not prove that you're better than the people that bring drugs and violence wherever they go, and it does nothing to even truly honor those traditions.
PREACH
Our societies change so quickly, that we mentally can't keep up. Traditions, that meant to keep community alive and thriving are now obsolete, but it's impossible to change one's way of thinking as quickly. It worked for your parents, they want a good stable life for you, so they do to you, what what done with them. How do you explain "Mom, Dad, this sacred tradition that build your life is now obsolete and unnecessary. Trust me." The only thing that helps is education, and unfortunately, many traditions don't place enough value on it.
icy dawn female mutilation has nothing to do with religion, it’s a culture/tradition. I’m a Muslim woman and I don’t know any woman that has been through that.
