Chitral Chicks

[Manzareh]

December 2004
The women of Chitral in the Hindu Kush in Pakistan are traditionally kept out of sight and out of power. But the arrival of a foreign fashion line is changing everything.

The clothing line, Carvana, is empowering dozens of local women giving them a market for their traditional sewing skills. Many now earn more than their husbands. And it's not only women benefiting from the work -- there's even a former Taliban member working for Carvana.

LOLLL leave poor idiot alone ahaha jus let him get der aha

[Karachi]

kalash are beautiful, are they related to pashtuns, or are they seperate group?

[Master Khan]

No Kalash are different but they look like Pashtuns
My cousin married a kalash back home.

[Shehbaz Khan]

The people and the area they belong to - both are amazing .. beautiful and marvellous .. !!

[kakargirl]

kalash are direct descendents of alexander the great, they use to live in afghanistan until the whites of kandahar chased them up to the chitral mountains,

[kakargirl]

Aren't people in Chitral pagans?

yes they are wrora they follow zoroastrianism.

[kakargirl]

I don't know about that. Theirs some researchers who are saying Europeans are actually from Chitral. And, who are the whites of Kandahar? Most Kandari"s I know are pretty dark.

lol wror il explain , the chitralies are the direct off springs off the greek soldiers that were chased up to the mountains by our people , the whites of kandahar are pashtuns our familys who carry the genes for pure blonde to red hair to the most weird eye colours to the palest skin ,this is due to genetic mutation, but apparently europeons the nordic race come from these areas moved out due to mutation.

i dont like how these filthy europeans are exploiting these poor women and men with extremely laborious handiwork taking them up to a month or longer a piece, and they get a mere 10% of the selling price (max). if these greedy women wanted to be fair and give them their hard work's due they should have at LEAST given them 50% of the profit.

what they're doing instead is exploitation.

[qunduz92]

It's hard for me to trust western sources. A DNA taken from Pashtuns from the east, indicate most Pashtuns are South, central Asian. With south Indian genes as well. With only 10% middle eastern (Iranian)

you have further revealed your true colors now.

[qunduz92]

Yea you revealed that your still a jackass, a name change can't save you. Why don't you take a DNA sample to prove it.

Just cause you would sell your soul to be iranian, don't make you one.

whats it to you farsiwan dog of the US military if i wanted a namechange because DZJ advised me to do so?

how about you take the lead of your role models and be a little housen-i-g-g-e-r of your white american masters. maybe they could finally provide you with a job and pay you some dollars to be their attack dog and leash you out against innocent pashtun villagers. keep practicing your barking skills..

farsiwans in afghanistan are the most indian looking of all of afghanistan's ethncities because your origins are more heavily mixed.

the last thing i would want to be associated with would be a stinky iranian but i admit they are 100 x better than the wild, animalstic and murderous american bootlickers. at least they have the nerve to not stoop down and sell themselves to imperialists. you have done all that and more. rape of young children is extremely common in your areas now that the security has vanished. what can one expect of befarhanga animals.
