Public floggings for a genetic predisposition, classy.
eventually saudi women will just live in rolling balls like bubble boy.
and then they'll ban sexually-tempting rolling balls
By Allah, I can see her nose!

Next thing is that they'll have to wear even more clothing so that you cannot see the outline of their cleavage.
My favorite line in the article, the whole reason for this law:
[quote]The proposal was made after a member of the committee was attracted by a woman's eyes as he walked along a street, provoking a fight, one report on the Bikya Masr news website suggested.
The woman was walking with her husband who ended up being stabbed twice in the hand after the altercation.[/quote]

"I have no self control, it's obviously the woman's fault."
Stories like this still manage to surprise me. Why is this committee member not in prison? He claims that he twice stabbed a man who's only crime was walking down the street with his wife because her eyes were too pretty, as if that somehow justifies his brutality? Criminy.

people use the same justification for rape so maybe our cultures aren't so different after all...
[QUOTE=thisispain;33636885]people use the same justification for rape so maybe our cultures aren't so different after all...[/QUOTE]That's what I'm starting to think, too.
the committee member was attracted by attractive eyes? they've covered their women up enough so that men now can be attracted enough to a woman by only her eyes as to start a fight. jesus
Remind me again why this religion is even allowed to exist as law anywhere in the civilized world?

this is just people in power abusing religion, not the religion itself. same thing happens to christians.

You'll find that the civilized world and the world where this exists as law are, in fact, two separate places.
Oh wow "In 2002 the committee refused to allow female students out of a burning school in the holy city of Mecca because they were not wearing correct head cover"
Just seriously, it's the most retarded thing ever i wonder how they have even stayed around this long.
How will she see? She must be hand-guided by her husband everywhere?
Stay classy Saudi Arabia, stay classy.
I'm surprised they don't just outright ban woman from leaving their homes at all.

Sunglasses or some sort of see-through mesh

Well of course people are gonna start finding eyes sexy when that's the only part of a woman they can actually see.
Doc, we've gone back in time!

No, Marty, it's just Saudi Arabia.
These Saudi laws are a logical response to the inept female thought process. I cannot help but agree wholeheartedly having experienced this fact countless times in my life.
Well if fundamentalist Islam has taught me anything, it's that Muslim women do often have very sexy eyes.

she can sit in a wheelbarrow

He went lenient on her, as she should have been stoned.
Something should be done, but all nations are so scared of mucking with eachother everything is seriously completely fucked up in places like this

the idea that Islamism and capitalist liberalism are diametrically opposed is absolutely laughable

I would agree with you if the religious texts weren't [I]really really[/I] misogynistic
it's not like it's based on some radical interpretation of the holy texts
[editline]9th December 2011[/editline]
and of course the same thing happens to Christians, we've got mostly the same source material
