Karen a "long neck" tribe from Thailand. Traditionally small girls are made

to wear these "metal neck straps" so as to make their necks longer.

Comments and ratings welcome. Thanks for your time.

fascinating picture. You might consider cropping out the brown structure to the left.. I wonder if the necks really do stretch or become loose-seems cruel either way.

Admire both your image And the introduction! Silly ol’ me thought that only African ladies elongated necks with rings, so they could not hold ‘em up straight w/o the propping J. Looks like in Thailand this is a practice analogous to Chinese ‘small’ shoes. Although I do concede that, in moderation and with exercise, these rings can actually do aesthetics wonders for the short neck swans. Most educational, warm toned picaresque portrait. Thank You.
