Armys are the most misogynistic fandom ever
Genuinely what was happening last week ? Bts members attended Chris browns concert and showed support by posting it , supporting a literal misogynistic abuser , i always had this perspective about bts being misogynistic but was silent and now its getting out of hand , most of the armys are girls i dont understand how they can still idolize and defend these grown ass men , armys know chris brown is an abuser , bts knows what Chris brown did yet they still show appreciation towards chris brown and attend his concert and armys still lick these men's toe , imagine if it was Jennie or Daniela , they would send these women to hell but its all ok when bts does it , another issue is jungkook's crazy parasocial fans never leaving Winter alone , they started rumors it was never confirmed to be true yet she received hate , death threats and god knows what , i know its not jungkook's fault but he could have spoke up about it , what did winter do? She was just existing its his fans who were threatening her so it was his responsibility to say something about it in public but no , he does nothing and poor winter is still getting hates and insults to this day , it just enrages me
U all the downvotes i am getting 😭😭
Thinking about going vegetarian but is that even compatible with being Turkic?
Lately I've been wanting to try being vegetarian, mostly for health and ethical reasons , But then I sit down at a family dinner with plov or beshbarmak or manti on the table and it hits me meat isn't just food here, it's tradition, hospitality and identity
So now I'm stuck questioning everything:
Is it even realistic to be vegetarian or vegan in a Turkic household without offending everyone?
Does anyone here actually pull it off and how do family gatherings go?
I have so many questions tbh
Salar people
The Salar people originate from the Oghuz Turks of Samarkand, present-day Uzbekistan. During the Mongol invasion, while most Oghuz tribes fled west, a small group moved east to China, settling in Qinghai and Gansu. They married local Han Chinese women, keeping their Turkic traditions and language.
The Salar are Sunni Muslims, with significant Chinese influences in their culture and language. Their architecture and cuisine show more Chinese characteristics compared to the Uyghurs.
DNA studies indicate Salars share genetic similarities with Dongxiang (Sunni Muslim Mongolians), Hui (Han Chinese Muslims), and Tibetan and Siberian populations. Despite their Turkic roots, autosomal DNA shows Salars have more in common with Mongolic, Tibetan, Siberian, and Chinese populations. Over 50% of Salars is carrying R1a and R1b as their Y-DNA haplogroups.

Eating disorder
Ever since i decided to lose weight i started to count calories, restricted myself too much , i was eating under 400 calories for two months without having a single cheat day and i lost over 23 kg then one day it happened i ate a big piece of cake then somsa then lagmon and that day i ate over 4000 calories, this was the starting point for me to develop binge eating , then afterwards i restricted myself even harder , eating nothing for 3 days and then i binged, i restricted i binged then i started to purge ( forced myself to throw up) restrict , binge , purge , it was a cycle for me i was living like that for another two months i lost weigh , gained it and lost again , i lost my sleep , my peace , my will to live it was like a nightmare , and i started to search online tried to find answers why i am experiencing it , i found out that i have an eating disorder ( anorexia , bulimia , binge eating) which is a serious issue and i wanted to get help , so i went to talk with my university psychologist what she told me was " eat in a normal portion and dont think too much u already skinny" like hello ? Do u think i haven't thought of that ? Do u think its that easy ? I cannot even control my body my mental because of this and i am so tired , i am pretty sure i am not the only person who is experiencing ED in Uzbekistan so why we dont have ED specialized help centers ? Why its not treated like an issue ? Why nobody takes it seriously? I am just so lost

Learning Spanish as an Uzbek speaker — the emotional openness caught me off guard
Grammar wasn't the hard part. It was realizing how open Spanish speakers are with feelings.
In Uzbek, especially around family/elders, you don't just say "I love you" or "I miss you" out loud all the time , it's more implied. In Spanish, people say te quiero and te extraño like it's nothing.
Also the reactions like ¡Qué lindo!, ¡Dios mío! over literally anything. And nicknames like mi amor, cariño get used with friends too, not just partners.
Kind of loved the contrast tbh. Anyone else from a more reserved culture feel this learning a more expressive language?
Deep rooted misogyny in our Uzbek culture
I want to start off by asking the question that what is the happy woman imagine in your mind ? In our societies mind as a collective? I had this deep conversation with my mom yesterday, so i told her that i dont feel happy and i am unfulfilled due to not achieving my goals yet and my mom's response was " well u should marry and have children , only this brings u happiness" like what? Many many women and men in our nation think that happiness for women comes after marriage and having children, its always related to men and serving his family and having children 😒 , obviously there some women who are happy in their marriages i am not saying its impossible but for most majority of us we want to succeed we want to achieve our goals in academia , artistry whatever field it is perhaps travelling, my version of happiness has nothing to do with a man and mom doesn't get it , she thinks i am being volatile and childish , overall it just makes me sad again we are treated as a thing no autonomy no feelings just senseless robot who goes and lives in a man's home and serves, has no goals , has no desires outside of marriage 😒 ehh
I told myself to have only a bite but i went for more and ate it all
Hot take
Why in our society its frowned upon when the younger person doesn't give his/her seat to the older person who is under 50yo in the bus? They are physically capable of withstanding the whole ride , i am not giving my seat to someone who is younger than 50 and is healthy, we should normalize this and not demonize the younger people because we do also feel exhaustion , pain and so much more
