Brazil Court Blocks Couple's Chosen Baby Name To Prevent Bullying In Future https://ift.tt/kLRhUJ4 A Brazilian court banned a couple from naming their newborn after an Egyptian king, citing the possibility that it could lead to bullying. Catarina and Danillo Primola wanted to give their newborn boy the name Piye-a historic figure who was the first black pharaoh of Egypt. Piye was an important figure, ruling Egypt for 30 years while helping establish the 25th dynasty. However, the court intervened stating a fear that the unusual name would expose him to ridicule and bullying during his lifetime. In coming to this judgment, the court clearly compromised its cultural objective of understanding the naming tradition for the potential social life the child was likely to face. "There was a word there that talked about the black pharaoh," Danillo Primola told Daily Mail. "We went to research what it was like and we found the story of Piie, who was a Nubian warrior who fought and conquered Egypt and became the first black pharaoh." They chose to name their son in honor of Piye because of the importance of maintaining a link to their African ancestry. 'Recovering African names is a powerful way to give a new narrative to the history of black people,' Danillo Prímola said. 'We have the right to educate our children with this strength, this culture and in a way that they have representation in their name.' According to the news portal, in their ruling, court said that pronunciation of the pharaoh's name is similar to that of the Portuguese word 'plie,' which is a ballet dance step. "That is why the sound and spelling of the name were preponderant for the rejection," the Minas Gerais Court of Justice said, 'since they would be capable of causing future embarrassment to the child." "We know that bullying cannot be combated by prohibiting it, nor can it be combated by oppression," Danillo Prímola said. "Bullying can be combated by studying and working on the ignorance of society as a whole." https://ift.tt/6WNE3wM September 14, 2024 at 11:23PM NDTV News-Offbeat https://www.ndtv.com

"He Shouldn't Be Here": Man Casually Walks With Lion, Shocks Internet https://ift.tt/IBqoRvb An Instagram video featuring a man walking alongside a massive lion like a pet has taken the internet by storm. The video posted by digital creator Mian Saqib has amassed over a million views, challenging the typical perception of lions as fearsome predators. Known for his daring interactions with wild animals, Mr Saqib's latest footage showcases the lion strolling calmly next to him, without any sign of aggression. The lion's relaxed demeanour has stunned viewers and ignited widespread online discussion. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Mian Saqib (@miansaqib363) "He shouldn't be here; he's the king of the jungle," an individual wrote. A social media user criticised the act, highlighting safety concerns: "This seems highly irresponsible. Wild animals are unpredictable, and this could end badly." Another viewer expressed concern about the lion's health, stating, "Floppy toes, his belly hanging. He's not well taken care of nor washed." A fourth individual referred to the act as "the best screening." Pradeep Kumar was taken aback, stating, "I can't believe my eyes. This lion looks so calm! How is this even possible?" Omar Sayyed expressed mixed feelings, noting, "This is both thrilling and terrifying. Such an amazing bond, but it's hard to ignore the risks involved. Sara Javed questioned the ethics behind such interactions: "It's impressive but also worrying. These animals deserve to live in their natural habitat, not as part of a social media stunt." This video isn't the first to provoke debate; Saqib previously shared a clip of a lioness seemingly hugging him, which also sparked discussions about the safety and ethics of close encounters with wild animals. https://ift.tt/vzLpue8 September 14, 2024 at 08:43AM NDTV News-Offbeat https://www.ndtv.com
