Indian traditional “favour festival” practice
the first sunday of december of each year is the traditional indian “father festival”.
the so-called “favour festival” is the festival of beating a husband with a stick, which has been in india for hundreds of years and is still prevalent in the northern villages of bong varanasi and batna.
in a broad tan, there was a crowd of people, the elderly were talking to each other, the young were laughing, the children were having fun, and the atmosphere was very high.
among the crowds, a group of women were dressed up in guillotine, and it was remarkable that each of them was carrying a stick.
in a few moments, people naturally flash out a passage and a group of men walk towards women.
they were dressed in thick clothes, each holding a shield made of cattle skin.
the men came to the women with their hands up and their hands up and their hands up, and they even shouted and verbally abused women.
and as if the women didn't hear it, they didn't make it out, but they laughed at you and the men gradually relaxed.
all of a sudden, a “beating” order was sent to the women, who surrounded the men and hit them in the face with sticks.
the men at this time have lost their former flaunts and have shrunk into a single band, raised their shields above their heads, willingly accepted being beaten, and nobody shouted, let alone resisted.
according to the traditional perception, only a man who behaves softly and courageously when beaten is a good husband, while an attempt to escape is considered a coward.
it is often a day-long event, and not only do women love it, but men value it.
on the day of the festival, men woke up in the morning and changed their clothes, gathered together after breakfast, singing, dancing, and coming together to the forest outside the village to protect themselves before being beaten.
first, we cut down the tree bars, we put it in a shield, we put on a cow's skin.
then the head, hand, arm and back were thickly wrapped in cotton cloth.
when everything was ready, he went back to the village and went to bed with the beauty.
in the afternoon, men woke up with a few drinks of home-made water wine, prepared for the thought before being beaten, and then lined up in the sun.

ppppp, a woman first beats a man (usually a wife beats a husband) and then starts to blow up, as the cheers and support of the viewers grow higher.
the men who did the best in the day were beaten the most, and some of the shields were broken and could only endure.
although women beat men with sticks, it rarely happened.
i'm sorry
