Reveal hidden contents Well I think it's sort of weird (in a fun way) but I see no reason why it should be considered offensive I guess there's always a few girls who aren't interested in it just like I guess there's always a few guys who aren't interested in it (like in every country there are always exceptions ), but if a majority has a fun day with it, what's so bad about it? hckošice 1 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Methods vary ba regions ofc, in the east and south-east part where I live it´s still very strong, the boys wake early in the morning, wear festive clothes and meet together to go and visit their girlfriends, girls classmates and female members of their families. Throw cold water (a lot of cold water) and then drink something with the girls, eat some good food, receive awards (some chocolade eggs from the young girls, coloured ribbons from their girlfriends and usually some money from the older womens) at the end of the day the guys are after visiting everyone usually really drunk Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
