This is a link post Buffalo Girls - Official Trailer. NSFW
***WARNING: Contains Children Fighting, NSFW For That***

This is shocking, here's the brief:

Buffalo Girls tells the story of two 8-year-old-girls, Stam and Pet, both professional Muay Thai prizefighters. Set in small villages throughout rural Thailand, the film chronicles these young girls' emotional and sometimes heartbreaking journey as they fight in small underground arenas to win prize-money to help provide for their families.

Seriously depressing.

Hows this different to children doing karate or boxing here?

As for the crowds you should go to a kids 5 aside match.
Those guys get well vocal.

This is a normal post i think the difference is
kids in karate are not being exploited by their parents to make a buck?

This is a normal post No worse than a beauty pageant then?
If fact I would go so far is it's better than a pageant as this at least has some positive aspects.

Maybe some are but those two girls seemed to enjoy it and you don't get to be good at something without your heart being in it.

This is a normal post i have the same feeling towards child beauty pagents, but that is a rant for another day.
i would venture to guess if given the choice both of those girls would rather be doing something else, money is the driving factor here. the one says it herself.

This is a normal post At 8 years old i was being forced to learn a lot of instruments by my parents.
I was very good at them but my heart wasn't in it, mainly because i was 8 years old and wanted to be out playing with my friends instead of being forced to practice for 3 hours each evening, i did so for my parents though and pretended i enjoyed it if anyone asked.

Also, at 8 years old you shouldn't have the responsibility of being a bread earner for a family, especially not through violence.

This is a normal post Yeah, i had to, it was either that or the sex trade.
You know how it is.

This is a normal post Another thing that lets you get good at something,
apart from your 'heart being in it', is the fact that if you aren't good at it you get the shit beaten out of you.

This is a normal post It looks fucking brutal for one.
Secondly, it's the atmosphere of the crowd and their desire to see these kids actually kick the shit out of each other which is different.

This can only be compared to the recent incident with the pub here that was discovered to have children boxing, that's ok as a hobby for kids, when it's being done in order for people to make money from betting on the children things change, the kids are pressured into doing things they shouldn't and it goes too far.

In the video above it isn't a hobby, it's almost a career, with the added pressure of their parents and family needing the money.

Would you allow your child to go into a ring and potentially get a busted nose etc. So you could make some money? If you would you're a cunt.

This is a normal post Go on, just call me a cunt and get this over with because your morality is so much better than mine.
I mean you obviously know what it's like to be in their position.
It'ld be much better that these farmers just gave their girls over to the sex trade wouldn't it?
Which is much, much, more common place.

Please tell me that you've seen the film and not just the trailer though.

But to answer your question.
Living here in the U.K with a social care system and always having food to provide?
No, but I would let them do it as a sport if they chose with all the nice protection.

Over there?
Having a skill that would help keep the family together?
That they enjoy and are good at?
Would also help them protect themselves and give them confidence?
Yes.


In the scale of horrible things children have to go through it's by no means the worse.
It's no worse than girls in europe that Ballet and are left with crippled feet at the age of 20 and never having had a menstrual cycle..


You want worse to get a sense of moral outrage?
Children raped in the sextrade in vietname.
Child soldiers in Africa
Kids working on rubbish tips in china melting down western PCBS for the small amount of precious metals they contain.

This is a normal post You should see some of the baying boorish adults that you get by the football pitches in Croydon.
These Thai chaps are paragons of restraint by comparison.
