Training - December 22-04

These are fighting cocks training in our yard. They belong to my nephews. The need of cocks is big in the Philippines since every weekend in the cock-fights some of them die.

I want to ask guests to show there real face and there names. Hiding his identity is an unfair game. I will block guest posting if you have not the courage to say who you are and I will not accept in the future anyone insulting me in that way.

On this site there is no porn in any way, no child and no adult porn and I will not accept any. Any pictures showing nudity are photos showing real and normal things without any relation to sex.

This site shows views of real life and in a way that anyone will see it when he goes to this places or countries. Cock-fights are a legal sport in the Philippines. I do not realy agree with the people here about this, nor do i like them to eat dogs and rats, but this is a part of there culture. If everyone in this world starts fighting about everything he doesn't like where will we go. No westernized country will eat anymore beefmeat to respect the Indians, no more porkmeat to respect the Muslims, and so on, just to give a few examples.

I have travelled all over the world, eaten chocolate butter with ants, bugs, hayjumpers, rats, cats, dog, ant eggs, baby chicken in the egg, rotten sharkmeat and, and, and..... and this just to respect the culture of those populations of the world who offered those to me to show me and let me taste a part of there everyday,s life and culture.

Now, concerning child porn. Only those people who see in a naked child or any other naked body a object of porn are probabely those which are obsessed by this idea. In Europe and in many other civilized countries, nudity is treated as an open, non hidden subject. Europeans might in this state of life be somewhat less squeezed than U.S. citizens which claim all over the world to live free without knowing in reality what true freedom is and get their brains washed every day by religious cults and reality TV shows.
In Europe, nudism on beaches and at home is a wide spread normal state of life and even at my home we never hide nudity to each other among adults and children and I doubt that later any of my children will need to look trough a keyhole of a toilet to see what they have not discovered before. Teach the children to see in a naked body a very normal thing in the same way as some indigenous populations of the world do it and from which we need to learn some in this way, and for sure not to see in a naked human an object of sex and desire only. All this normal state of life, the freedom to live naked without any bad mind is something that has been destroyed by religious cults and is still today banned by many religions of the world. Maybe that this is one of the reasons for this obsession of voyeurism and sexbusiness one can find all over the world today and it is a known fact that the best way to lead people to temptation is forbidding and hiding.
I can see thousands of naked children here in the Philippines and other tropical countries everyday, playing at there home or on the beach. I have never seen any relation to porn in any of those and if you see this in another way, it meams that just you belong to those people who search for those things, as it seems. In my own world, child porn does not exist and it is strange that many cases of child porn all over the world are so often in a close relation which staff belonging or are close to religious cults.
Nudity is a photographic and artictic art as well as it can be an offence and all remains in the way you show it.
A full shown nudity can be a simple nice photo while a partialy shown nudity can often lead to sexual desire and exitement and be seen in pornographic way.
So, this said, I would ask you to keep all insulting comments out of my site. I travel a lot all over the world and there are many things in every country I could show here which are not or hardly accepted elsewhere. If they do not fit you and you don't want to face the reality, look "nice" shots elsewhere. On Pbase with a few millions of photos it will not be difficult to find any.
