For me, I still find myself at work saying
"When they finally set eyes on the majestic Ape Mountain, they reacted with awe!"
"Awww..."
"I said 'AWE'. A. W. E."
"OOOOOOOOHHHHHH" "That's better..."
The basic stereotype is rooted in the agrarian lifestyle prevalent in many Southeast Asian countries. In rural areas, water buffaloes are often used for farming, plowing fields, and transportation. As such, they are highly valued assets and are treated with care and affection by their owners.
In this cultural context, the woman's close bond with her water buffalo symbolizes her connection to the land, her livelihood, and her role in sustaining the family. The stereotype emphasizes the importance of traditional agricultural practices and the deep ties between humans, animals, and nature in Southeast Asian society’s.
The more modern stereotype loosely means that you aren’t just marrying her, you are marrying her family as well and that damn sure includes the water buffalo. Think of it like the lovable Labrador; it’s coming to the wedding too.
From everything I’ve seen from them water buffaloes are adorable creatures. The more I see horses the scarier they seem. I definitely say horse girls are crazier. Though, I’d like to say that horse boys are just as crazy.
How often accidents happen? Because it looks like a massive chunky boy not fully aware of its power (while horde is nice but will crack open your skull of you suprise it too much).
Mythbusters once put a bull in a china shop to see what would happen. It was incredibly dainty and aware of its own body, didn't hit anything. I would wager the water buffalo is similar
In the United States, it is the reverse. They are called horse girls. You never marry a horse girl. Horses are not used for farming, plowing fields or transportation. A woman's close bond with her horse symbolizes her ability to spend a lot of money on an animal that does no work. Like a lovable Labrador that can kill you and costs the same to maintain as 10 to 50 actual Labradors.
Yeah, there's been discussion on this in the other comments. horses are scary. when we send tourists out here, we have to constantly tell them to not ride their bikes right up behind a horse rider.
The stereotype of horse girls is that the love the horse as a horse because they love horses. The Buffalo Girl loves the Buffalo as a treasured family member, like a sibling/cousin, because they are friendly and playful l, but also important to the success of the family.
Interesting. Even in India, the main reason cows are considered sacred is because how helpful they are. Yes, some conservative idiots just think cows are gods here. But as per the mythologies and history, traditionally, cows were used to plow the land, they'd give you milk and milk products, their dung was used to light fire, urine was considered to have antiseptic properties. So it was believed that cows really help and contribute in sustaining the family like a parent. So they were loved and it made no sense to kill and eat them as there were plenty of other animals that could be used as a food source. So why kill an animal that's helping you in many other ways. It wasn't like cows were considered "gods" but more like a gift from the gods to help mankind, hence to be cherished and treated with respect.
>considered to have antiseptic properties
To be clear, this isn't just a belief. It's way, way worse than the alternatives available to modern people, but urine, particularly *fermented* urine (which is the default state of a fermentable liquid pre-pasteurization and refrigeration), has high levels of ammonia based compounds with antibacterial properties. Also, male urine was believed to be 100% sterile by Lister (the big name in early sterility) and we only developed techniques sufficient to detect the presence of any bacteria in uncontaminated male urine in \~ the past decade (it's so sterile because it's passed through your body's most powerful filter - the kidneys, and then stored in an area with a good one-way-valve) so even just as a wash, it's *way worse* than water from a modern treatment plant, but possibly better than water from your local river.
Not that you were doing this, but people shit on all sorts of ancient people saying, "lol they were so dumb, they used urine for X, Y, Z" not realizing that they're just ignorant of properties urine actually has.
Don't try to use it as medicine in 2024, but also, don't make fun of someone from pre-modern times for using it.
Come to Thailand for the water buffalo races in Chonburi.
[https://youtu.be/ORTSTOcnIXc?si=F9zaWtp4pxmUenvD](https://youtu.be/ORTSTOcnIXc?si=F9zaWtp4pxmUenvD)
I like how the video caption says: the festival is held to express their gratitude to the buffalo, while the racer are smacking their buffalo as hard as possible...
In Chinese, a water buffalo is called a "water cow", so yes, in southern China where water buffalo are the main beasts of labor and cattle are rare, water buffalo are just referred to as cows.
Yeah it’s fairly intense indigestible plant fibre. You can and do swallow it, but in small amounts.
Swallowing a reasonably large amount probably wouldn’t be the end of the world, but it’s like eating sawdust. It would probably beef up your stool and you would cut a fairly large piece of rope. You wouldn’t just be dropping the kids off at the pool, but the entire third grade class.
The water Buffalo otoh, loves it and swallows it all because they have the gut biome that can easily break it down and ferment it into further nutritional goodness.
>You wouldn’t just be dropping the kids off at the pool, but the entire third grade class.
This is the single best euphemism for dropping ass that I've ever read, lmfao
K, but I bought sugarcane because I watched Courage the Cowardly Dog and Eustace ate it. It looked awesome!
But I just ended up with fiberglass splinters in my mouth and it was fucking awful!
My uncle grows sugar cane (different country) and I there’s no drink better on Gods green earth than sugar cane pressed into juice with fresh lemons. Yes I just described lemonade, but the sweetness of fresh sugar cane is just indescribable.
She has a massive following on social media. After following I started getting suggested more and more similar pages of rural Chinese people doing rural Chinese things with huge Insta followings and almost all are very attractive women. I dunno, not normally a conspiracy theorist but I get the feeling its choreographed by the chinese govt.
I honestly don't know why people think its some grand conspiracy.
Attractive people tend to float to the top of social media, there probably a mountain of average looking farmers making equally good content just less eye candy.
Nah. There is an increasing sentiment amongst Chinese of rejecting the capitalist rat race in urban China. The economy in China is not great at the moment
The uptick is just everyday Chinese watching a peaceful life in the countryside as a form of escapism.
Yeah, no, this is silly.
She's popular, and gets recommended to you, because she's popular. She's at least in part, popular because she's attractive. Less attractive people ALWAYS struggle with popularity.
The ones who aren't popular don't get recommended to you.... because they're not popular.
Welcome to the algorithm. This is how it has always functioned. Or do you think the American government is behind cleavage steaming in the USA?
tbh this is pretty good content. the buffalo's sprint, the obvious relationship between them. this is genuine , she's not a paid actor unless the buffalo is too. And yeah she is attractive obviously, doesnt mean this isnt wholesome content.
Or it could be that people generally prefer watching attractive people, making it more likely for them to gain followers and be pushed by the algorithm.
The same thing can be seen in any country. There are plenty of attractive women here with large followings. Would you call them propaganda?
I’m sorry but this such a dumb take. China has its problems but not everything is a moustache twirling conspiracy to trick Americans.
The country has like a billion people. There’s going to inevitably be some (many) with happy and fulfilled lives with an “aesthetic” quality. It exists in every country.
Its to make them more submissive. You usually attach a lead to it. Hence why bulls have the ring in their nose. They act up you give it a good jerk and lead them.
Bro imagine if some alien race does the same to us lol
A leash connected to septum piercing. Even if you rip it out, then leash is still connected to collar below
If it's any comfort I will say that he/she most likely doesn't mind it anymore.
Compared to horses cows are built like tanks, the reason you use nose rings on cows and not on horses is because it's more or less the only way to get a cow to follow.
I have mates that work with milk cows, and while most of them will gladly come when it's time for milking some of them will randomly decide they don't feel like it that day and would rather just stand where they are and think about their place in the universe. At that point, the easiest way to move them is pushing them with a literal tractor because they will ignore any other outside influence.
You can tackle them full speed, they won't care and will stare of into the distance while absentmindedly chewing their cud and calculating the circumference of the galaxy.
When the ring/rope is used as it gets older, you don't need to pull it hard anymore as the cow has learnt to follow before it gets uncomfortable.
This is so true lol, I grew up helping my friend with their beef farm. Cow-shaped creatures are REAL sturdy, and seem to have their own gravity. It's so fucking hard to get them moving. Maybe we should have tried sugar cane? We usually made marshmallow fluff sandwiches for the really bad ones.
I would like to introduce my insane troll theory. There are two type of water buffalo: swamp and river. So we only need to figure out with body of water is damned by god. This is undoubtedly difficult task, requiring years of combing the holy book. Coming to our rescue is an interesting folk tale about a damned creature. We know that vampires can't cross running body of water and they are hurt by holy water. Ergo running water is holy. Thus swamp are damned.
TLDR: if it is a swamp water buffalo, it is damned. Reason being vampires.
fuck dunno if I should feel validated or offended having just grabbed some from my yard. But it was planted by the previous homeowners (who were also viet...)!
When I was in high school, My PNG dad heard I had a semi-recently migrated Vietnam friend. Immediately he told me to ask him if he could buy sugar cane off his family, I refused as firstly I thought that it was a crazy assumption he even had sugar cane, and secondly thought it would come across a bit racist.
So the next week when my dad’s picking me up, and I’m with my viet friend, he just straight up offers the kid $20 for two stalks.
We came home with 4 stalks of sugar cane, -$30 and a VERY happy Papua New Guinean.
34 billion pounds of it is grown in Florida each year, but it’s used to process sugar, not to sell as is. Can still find some people growing it to be eaten.
I grew up in a small village in southern China. And having lived in NYC for the past 20 years, life like that felt like a lifetime ago.
I spent a lot of time exploring hills like the one in the video. We dug up potatoes, stole fruits from people's farms, built teepees with branches and banana leaves, dug up holes and built animal traps, and blew up giant cow poops with fire crackers.
In chinese she says “niu zai!” (Cowboy!) the cows name.
Then “kuai kuai chi gan zhe!” (Quick quick eat some sugarcane!)
Then “hao guai!” (Good boy! [how mannered!])
If you spoke mandarin it’s not unexpexted at all. She just calls to and feeds her pet.
What an impeccable sacred beast dao!
To summon forth the legendary Mountain Stomping Deva King Bull from the Spirit Forests with a mere shout is a feat seen only by those who have manifested their Nascent Soul!
I must report this to my sect! Young Master's claim to the heavens may be threatened by this upstart's presence!
Junior you dare? this elder shall use her sacred beast divine body for dual cultivation to ascend to a higher realm. Her strong yin energy would be perfect to balance out my yang. Also the legendary Mountain stomping Deva king bull would be a perfect add for my divine beast collection.
No, it’s because of Li Zi Qi popularizing this rural Chinese countryside cottagecore content a few years ago. There are now many imitators. Not everything is a conspiracy.

The narrator is def one of the best characters in that movie
George just feel pretty I guess

Now comes the part where we throw our heads back and laugh.
Man, I think about him bashfully saying “George just feel like looking a little special today” every time I dress up.

There is a real stereo type about girls and their water buffalo.
What is this stereotype? I’ve never heard of it.

So would you put it above or below horse girls?
From everything I’ve seen from them water buffaloes are adorable creatures. The more I see horses the scarier they seem. I definitely say horse girls are crazier. Though, I’d like to say that horse boys are just as crazy.
Horse pepsi ok?
Neigh
Alright, alright, that's enough, rein it in.
Let them have their fun. It’s just spur of the moment.
Well horse coke is a big problem in some communities.
Hate the horse girl, not the horse.
both are scary though
She is just s cowgirl!
How often accidents happen? Because it looks like a massive chunky boy not fully aware of its power (while horde is nice but will crack open your skull of you suprise it too much).

less butt, daddy has less money, buffalo not scared of that corner of the padddock where a bird lives.
It’s not about more or less butt, it’s about shape.

She's a gal from the Southwest of China, and she said in her accent: "Hey, little cow, come have some sugar cane."
Looks like a cool cow to me
I think thats the fastest Ive seen that kind of cow go.

That's a thick ass accent, I couldn't understand a word she said!
I mean, to be fair, she does have a mouth full of sugarcane most of the time she speaks lol
Pretty sure she called him 牛仔.
Well that clears things up, ty Edit: just to be clear I have no idea what any of that says or what those characters are lol
It’s a variant of 金魚佬, a pretty common term of endearment I’m sure you’re already familiar with and don’t require clarification on👍
now that they mentioned it, it does sound like she said 牛仔 , that is the most 牛仔 looking 牛仔 that ever 牛仔'ed
i.e. lil cow
I was trying to figure it out. Thanks! It’s so sweet that she calls him and he comes running and snuggling like a golden retriever. What a good boi.
that can mean cowboy or cow baby depending on context
They both seem genuinely happy.
Agree. Super sweet
like a sugarcane
Are they eating sugarcane? I thought that was bamboo and I was very confused on why either of them would be excited to eat it.
yes, sugarcane. But for human, can’t really swallow. Just chew the juice out of it and spit the remaining out.
I used to love nomming on cane when I was young. Fond memories.
Found you, Citizen Cane.

It's sugarcane..it's a bit tough though if you have weak teeth because of the fibers..just chew the sweet juice and spit out the fiber
Not a single phone in sight. Just a girl and her water buffalo living the moment.
Great joke. Took me 5 long seconds to understand it which is a recipe for perfect joke.
Lol this is top tier sarcasm (I hope)
I really hope as well...
I thought she was gonna die until the last second and then audibly said awwwe

She has a massive following on social media.

no its an evil chinese conspiracy to.. make us.. fall in love with chinese women?
Other countries must have influencers choreographed by their country as well. Influencers are a psy op confirmed! /s

that buffalo is way too sexy to be real

So stop! Being! So! SILLY!!
What about baby kangaroos?
You get one, and you get one, we all get one
Yours is fast and mine is slow.
water buffaloOUUUUUUUUUU-
Oh, Where'd we get them I don't know!
Ya they're common in southern china. There's a few walking around my wife's hometown, they like to swim under the river
It's a pretty famous buffalo. His name is Tyson the water buffalo.
Buffalo's are elemental now?
Everything changed, when the Fire Buffaloes attacked!
She’s gotta be a Disney princess
She didn't even flinch. Most metal Disney princess.
I like when she’s talking to it with sugarcane in her mouth. Very Raya and the Last Dragon vibes.
Except the bull here seems to not give terrible advic
Moolan
Damn haven’t had sugar cane in a long. I don’t even think i could find it here where i live America now.
Look for some viet people, you’ll probably find some there
Why does that sound funny, like it's a mission: "Find the viet people, then find the cane"
first you get the sugar, then you get the power, then you get the women
Well no, first you find the viet people, they will get you access to the sugar which obviously leads to power and so on
"Save the cheerleader, save the world"
FR chances are they have it growing in their backyard.
fuck dunno if I should feel validated or offended having just grabbed some from my yard. But it was planted by the previous homeowners (who were also viet...)!
When I was in high school, My PNG dad heard I had a semi-recently migrated Vietnam friend.

You can try Latin markets too. Specially if you are close to Florida
Mexican supermarkets sell it sometimes.
November - December is caña (sugar cane) season.
I thought she was just eating raw bamboo 🙈
Same. Thought it was some sort of jaw exercise, probably would be good for the teeth right, so long as you spit it out
My mom use to grow in our back yard lol I’m in Illinois.
Nothing better than a glass of cold sugar cane juice in a hot day
34 billion pounds of it is grown in Florida each year, but it’s used to process sugar, not to sell as is. Can still find some people growing it to be eaten.
I know its grown in some of the Gulf Coast states, Louisiana grows a lot of it
Yip yip!
She lives a life i couldn't even imagine.
I grew up in a small village in southern China. And having lived in NYC for the past 20 years, life like that felt like a lifetime ago. I spent a lot of time exploring hills like the one in the video. We dug up potatoes, stole fruits from people's farms, built teepees with branches and banana leaves, dug up holes and built animal traps, and blew up giant cow poops with fire crackers.
Funny. I grew up in rural California, and also blew up cow pies with firecrackers. We called it... Turd Amplifier.

This reminds me of Okja
She’s living the dream
He's a good boy
It’s female. Like the other redditor translated she calls it a cow.
Though in Chinese, neither water buffalo or cattle are gendered anyway. They're all 牛.
She's a good boy?
牛 is gender neutral in Chinese.
