From the Epoch Times:
The police in Aceh province began arresting women for wearing tight pants and skirts Thursday after a new law was passed forcing citizens to honor Muslim tradition. 20,000 long skirts were distributed for women to wear until they can adjust their wardrobe. Police are not forcing women to become Muslim, but they are requiring them to wear traditional clothing, reported Foxnews.com.
“The [Tight Pants] rule applies only to Muslim residents in West Aceh. We don't enforce it for non-Muslims, but are asking them to respect us,” Ramli Mansur, head of West Aceh district told the Associated Press.
There's should be a new law for the men: "Men who can't keep their penises down when seeing those sexy ass in the tight pants will be prosecuted" ...
ReplyDeleteIt should be those dirty men's problems, not the women's... I'm appalled...
(in case anyone's wondering I'm from Indonesia as well so no racist comment here...)
Thanks Anonymous - it never ceases to surprise me that laws made for protect the modesty of women are made by men without the consultation of women.
