Recently, strange videos have started appearing on social media, showing women walking through the streets in wedding dresses. One such incident occurred in Tashkent, another in Samarkand. These videos raise many questions and speculations: what are they trying to convey? Perhaps it’s an original advertisement for bridal salons or the filming of social campaigns.
Interestingly, similar actions have occurred before. In June, a woman in a wedding dress attracted the attention of passersby while walking through Registan Square in Samarkand, holding a sign that read, “To the one who marries me, I will give a Gentra.” To make her point, she held the car keys in her hand.
This video did not go unnoticed by local law enforcement. The woman was called in for a preventive conversation and had to publicly apologize on camera for her behavior.
What is behind the actions of the women in these new videos? Some social media users speculated that these women are trying to find husbands in this way. On the other hand, perhaps they are aiming to draw attention to some personal or social issues, or maybe it’s just a way to create viral content and gain fame. In any case, such actions provoke mixed reactions in society and, as the Samarkand incident shows, do not always go without consequences.
We will continue to monitor the developments and try to understand what is really motivating these “brides” on the streets of our cities.
