• [OT] Taliban is banning *windows* (the glass kind)

    From Rhino@21:1/5 to All on Mon Apr 14 19:42:27 2025
    It seems that the Taliban have banned glass windows that overlook
    "women's spaces" in an attempt to ban "obscene acts".

    It is NOT sufficient to cover windows that overlook "women's spaces"
    with curtains or even plywood: they must be bricked over!

    Of course the number of women's spaces are rather limited since there
    are already so many restrictions on them. They already can't use public restrooms or parks or any number of other places and seem to be covered
    head to toe when they are out.

    Unsurprisingly, suicides among women are up considerably since the
    Taliban came back into power. What a horrible life they have, being
    prohibited from working or getting educated beyond the sixth grade,
    completely covered up while out of the home, only being allowed out with
    a chaperone, forbidden to speak or sing in public and now being made
    invisible by windows that might otherwise see them being bricked up.
