boy's word

In the 80s, Kazan was divided into districts-groups, where the entire life of young people was governed by the strict concepts of "asphalt". Briefly about the main points: Hierarchy: Everyone was divided into "boys" (gang members) and "chushpany" (those not in the gang). Within the gang, there were ages: from the "shell" (the little ones) to the "old guys." Healthy lifestyle and discipline: The boys were forbidden from smoking and drinking. They had to work out and know how to fight. A boy's word was law; lying to "one's own" was severely punished. Girls: They were treated like property of the neighborhood. The whole crowd defended “their own” (from their own yard or the boys’ girlfriends). It was considered "low-class" to beat women. Virginity was a prerequisite for a serious relationship. If a girl was a "walker," a boy was forbidden to marry her or call her his own, otherwise he would be "dismissed" (disgraced). Life in the city: Kazan was a zone of constant warfare. Crossing the street into someone else's neighborhood without a reason meant risking a beating. Massive, wall-to-wall brawls were a constant occurrence at discos.
