Why German and European women travel to Ladakh to have babies?
Reports suggest that some European women, particularly from Germany, travel to Ladakh’s Brokpa villages seeking to conceive ‘Aryan babies.’ Fuelled by racial myths and local folklore, they believe Brokpa men carry a pure Aryan gene. Critics call it fetishism dressed as cultural tourism. Locals remain divided, with some confirming isolated incidents and others dismissing them outright.
