In reply to Iran women fume over double

Often I've found that it's hard to find any rationale more wack than that of Iranian mullahs. (By comparison, Wahabbi and Taliban will usually have a hobgoblin-of-little-minds consistency.) The Iranians do these bizarre intellectual twists and turns, sort of like the extreme nit picking of bible or torah scholarship to absurd excess. Here with this extra strange one is what I cynically see: Iranian wimmin are worth protecting, Syrian wimmin, a step below, are not.

just another hopeless attempt

In reply to Tajik anti-hijab law takes

just another hopeless attempt at maintaining old timey local culture as people get dragged kicking and screaming into the globalized 21st century. Every country has got these people, even France (sometimes to an extreme degree, including, but certainly not exclusively, anti-Muslim apparel.) Some countries/locales are so unfortunate as to have radical Islam as a dominant group trying to insure 11th-century family values, and get violent if they don't get their way.

We got the Christian coalition et. al. We might have their pal Mike Pence as president soon pushing a dress code, too, so I guess we shouldn't too holier than thou on this front yet. Even though their numbers have been drawn down of late by a switch by some to more Trumpian culture, even tho stiletto heels, ultra low necklines and opoid addiction might be a strange mix...

Tajik anti-hijab law takes effect. On one hand discourages islamization and excessive religion; on other hand largely tells women how to dress.
