Women plow naked

Women Reportedly Plowing Naked in Nepal


KATMANDU, Nepal (AP) - Female rice farmers are plowing their fields at night in the nude to please the rain god during a dry spell in southwestern Nepal, a news report said Sunday.

A 35-year-old farmer, Ambika Tharu, said she and other women were daring to bare all for the rain god because of a delay in the annual monsoon season and the need for precipitation for their rice crops.

``My mother-in-law said the God would be pleased and make rainfall if women till the land naked,'' Tharu told the Himalayan Times newspaper.

The delay of the monsoon rains, which usually begin in the first week of June in Nepal, have prevented farmers from planting rice.


Weather forecasters in the capital Katmandu - 310 miles northeast of Baijapur village, where the naked farmers are appealing for rain - said the situation is expected to improve in the next few days.

I wonder if we can get the local (where ever that happens to be for you) university women to attend classes naked to "please the education god"....

My thinking is as follows:

If the rain god doesn't make it rain, then women come out and plow naked to please him. So why would the rain god want to make it rain if he gets naked chicks to dance for him if he doesn't? I'm confused.

If it makes them feel better and gives them some hope, I'm not going to complain. I know droughts suck around here, and in a place that relies a lot more on farming, this must really suck. I just wish there was some way to donate Connecticut's weather to Nepal.

Indigenous women in certain regions have been doing this for centuries, because it cooled them off.

the idea of naked women in the fields to increase crop yield and sometimes the fertility of the village has been around for ever and appears in europe, the americas and asia, that I know of for certain, and I would bet that it was a tradition in africa and australia, though I have no examples

Don't all women plow naked. *wink*

I plow naked. *wink*

I also lay pipe naked. Although sometimes I keep my shirt on for a quick get away.

living out here in the midst of thousands of acres of farmland and all, I think it would be a hoot to get the phrase, "Plow Naked" on a tee shirt.

that'd be cool, yep.

I wish they would plow during the day -- celebrating their beauty instead of hiding it.
