> in all 3rd world countries

Not true.

Yeah I have family from the Philippines. They are very protective of daughters.

I went to visit the village. I was walking in the backroads and a dude with 2 machetes and one eye walked up to me in the road while he was roasting a fucking dog over a fire.

I told him nice machetes. He didn't seem to understand, so I just pointed at his machetes and smiled. Fortunately he seemed disarmed once I confidently showed I found the whole thing amusing, and just gestured towards available dog to eat.

The lesson of their protectiveness was learned.

Yes, the poverty stricken parents have all the time in the world to walk their kids around all day. /s

They'd be lucky to even have two live parents and in the picture.

You have some really deep knowledge of what 3rd world countries are like.

Please continue and tell me more about the topic.

I'd go even that far that 7-9 yo kids in Vietnam, Laos or Thailand already ride motorbike (scooter) at that age, I crashed because of them once in Laos (on the way to Plain of jars), just suddenly stopped in front of me on dusty road, I stopped as well, but sadly I had passenger behind me who balanced in other direction, so we flipped to side when bike slipped a bit.
