Indian Girls Plow Fields Naked in Attempt to Bring Rain

Friday , July 24, 2009

Indian farmers -- desperate for rain -- have asked their unmarried daughters to plow dry fields naked, in a bid to spark interest from the weather gods, and bring some badly needed monsoon rain.

The nude girls in the eastern India state of Bihar chanted hymns as they plowed the fields, asking for rain, witnesses told Reuters.

"They (villagers) believe their acts would get the weather gods badly embarrassed, who in turn would ensure bumper crops by sending rains," Upendra Kumar, a village council official, told Reuters.

"This is the most trusted social custom in the area and the villagers have vowed to continue this practice until it rains very heavily," she told Reuters.

There were some news articles a while back of the same thing in Nepal I believe. If so many people believe in it, it must be true?

Hey Ray,

It has been raining so much around here that I went to the farm to check if any unmarried farmer's daughters were plowing the fields naked. Unfortunately, they weren't!

Maybe IV is part Filipino.

There is a long history of interaction between Mexico and the Philippines. The Philippines used to be governed through "New Spain" (Mexico). "The Manila-Acapulco galleons were Spanish trading ships that sailed once or twice per year across the Pacific Ocean between Manila in the Philippines, and Acapulco, New Spain." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manila_galleon

Mexicans of Filipino descent "Most of their Filipino ancestors arrived in Mexico during the Spanish colonial period. For two and a half centuries, between 1565 and 1815, many Filipinos and Mexicans sailed to and from Mexico and the Philippines as sailors, crews, slaves, prisoners, adventurers and soldiers in the Manila-Acapulco Galleon assisting Spain in its trade between Asia and the Americas. Some of these sailors never returned to the Philippines. Most settled in and integrated into the Mexican society. In the late 19th and early 20th century many Filipinos came to Mexico as refugees from Spain during Francisco Francoâ€™s dictatorship. These Filipinos from Spain were descendants of Filipino and Filipino mestizo settlers who entered Spain after the Spanish-American war."

Awww how sweet of you guys, and yes, I like to think there is a little bit of almost everything in mexican blood... who ever said mexican women don't like foreigners? the proof is in the mix!

I don't have an add on filipina heart, I don't even have one at cherry blossoms because I thought they were asian-oriented... I have an add on international cupid and one on Plenty of Fish... I've been messaged by gentlemen looking for asian girls just as often as those looking for latinas, but I don't think that's enough to join one of those sites, it would almost feel like lying about where I come from I think $:-\$

Oh and I have a facebook account, I was able to get back in touch with some old friends but I wouldn't say that counts as a dating site thing.

I seriously think that the Natives just wanted to see a bunch of young girls naked. How ridiculous. Hrrrrrumph!

IV,

Why not put up an ad on some of the popular dating sites like match.com, lava life, yahoo personals, etc.? I think you'd get a good response. You might have to message some guys first because they might not be looking outside their city, but I'm sure there are plenty of guys who would be willing to suffer through a vacation to Mexico for the sake of an attractive girl.

InnocentVixen · « **Reply #12 on:** August 14, 2009, 02:57:53 PM »

I tried Match.com when I first started my search but I found it a bit complicated to search for profiles since all seemed to be by location, lava life I've never heard of and yahoo personals haven't tried, so I'll take a look, thank you for the suggestions.

But, I sure hope it America keeps raining in America!
