Bangladesh is just a crazy country. It's ridiculous. I mean- you spend all this time here and you still are constantly being surprised and still trying to figure things out.
A few weeks back mom and dad were walking on this hill nearby. There was a big group of guys at the top and dad asked them what was going on. They told dad that 4 guys had dragged a girl off into the jungle and they were looking for them. But, they were too afraid to go into the jungle I guess. They even tried to stop dad when he went looking for her, telling him how dangerous it was. Finally, Mom told one of the guys, "My husband must do what is right. He must go to bed tonight and know he tried to help that girl. He must know that he did what is right before God." Which, I guess he understood. But, nobody seemed too concerned or really upset about it... the whole thing was just strange! And just shocking that they wouldn't help that girl. Even when we told people about what happened they say, "Oh yes.. very bad men.." But, it's like it's not ... abnormal... It is bizarre.
Last night, mom and I were walking on that same hill and we passed a woman dressed in a sari walking up the hill. There were a few guys there. As soon as she walked past us one guys said something and they all jumped up and started following her. So mom stopped and was like, "Didn't that seem weird? We should make sure she''s okay." So we stood there and watched for awhile. The woman walked of onto this dark path into the jungle. 2 guys saw us watching so they stopped and watched us. Then mom and I walked back up towards the path where the woman went and stood there looking. The other two guys came and stood right behind us. Then they walked a little ways away. Finally mom said, "We need to just walk back there a little ways to make sure she's okay." As soon as we stepped onto the path those 2 guys came running up right behind us. So we walk into the jungle a little ways. It's totally dark and all we have is mom's phone to see. There are two or three guys- we couldn't see what was happening really but as soon as they saw us they all stood up and started going, "Oh sorry! sorry!" Mom asks where the woman was... they told us that she was right there. So mom starts asking is she's okay. Those two guys are standing right behind us still. Finally she walks into the light a little bit and mom asks her if she's alright. She says that she was. All of the sudden mom just turns around and starts walking out of the jungle.. and she turns around and says, "Caley! I think that was a man!"
Shockingly enough, that's not the first cross dresser we've seen and the entire situation was extremely bizarre! Standing in a dark jungle with 5 or 6 guys and... I don't know.. apparently a prostitute of some sort, she didn't seem to want any help anyways..
That's Bangladesh for you.
