    Okay, I'm curious. I'm sure a lot of the girls/women would be or were upset at their parents for doing this, but do you think some of them actually go, like "Dad, that guy's cute. Abduct him"? Do you think SOME of them did that?

    Well, that's not happening to their kids though right? Arranged marriages are a lot more cruel than the stories of old but it has to be dying out. IMO.

    Most girl's say ,"She's a female victim , male's should not exist" when heard about male victims ," girl or guy no one deserves these " . "But for girls that's more worse ".

    Ya ya that's why female suicide rate is lower than male's right ?

    They could kill the parents when they have the chance after the forced marriage. Simple solution. The best revenge comes to those who wait.

    This issue that most people aren't addressing is WHO is behind all of this?
    Who are the ones kidnapping both girls and boys at GUNPOINT? Are the women doing the kidnapping and wielding around guns?

    The problem is the MEN who are engaging in these violent kidnappings so it is MEN who have to confront these kidnappers.

    Men rule the world and are the major leaders in each country, correct? So if you are a male and you are suffering, wouldn't it be logical to put the blame on the MEN who make the rules? 🤔

    Are you men afraid of confronting your male oppressors?

Five years on from the Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan | BBC News

Published

on



It has been five years since the Taliban retook control of Afghanistan, as western forces left, imposing their extreme, ultra-conservative interpretation of Islam on millions of people.

Their return to power brought relative peace to the country after two decades of war.

But Afghan women have been erased from public life. Girls are banned from school from the age of 12, and aren’t allowed to go to university.

Public parks are also off limits to women – and they can’t travel abroad without a male companion.

Is another deadly flood coming to Nepal? | BBC News

Published

on



China has warned there is a “high risk” that a lake which formed after the recent landslide near the Nepal-Tibet border may breach its banks, causing a second flood downstream.

The warning comes after Wednesday’s deadly flash flood in the same area which has killed more than 500.

Scientists say it was triggered by the collapse of a mountain glacier into a river.

Did Emily ruin Paris? | The Global Story

Published

on



The Netflix show Emily in Paris has been lauded by French President Emmanuel Macron, who presented its creator, Darren Star, with the prestigious Légion d’Honneur last year.

“You make France shine across the world,” Macron said.

Many critics disagree. The programme, about a hapless American marketing executive living a glamorous and romantic fantasy in the French capital, is due to return for its sixth and final season later this year.

Some Parisians have complained that the series is full of cliches. And they worry that the tourism boost created by the show is changing the city they live in.

How do blockbuster TV series and iconic films reshape our cities, for better or worse?

The Global Story host, Tristan Redman, heads to the fifth arrondissement, while producers Hannah Moore and Xandra Ellin get the picture in London and New York.
