    Recently some were mocked for suggesting that Islamic countries force women to dress a certain way.

    Iran warns women over slack dressing

    My favorite quote

    That's a special kind of man that won't pay attention to his wife because she's not actually the most beautiful woman in the world.

    Doesn't enforcing a certain dress to stop Muslim men wondering, imply that Muslim men are sex mad?

    Yes, but with Islamic law allowing 4 wives you would think they get enough without their eyes still looking for something else, which implies to me Muslim men are sex/women mad up to the point they have to hide their own women.

    Should the guys just wear dark sunglasses:)

    I think they should quit blaming women and start blaming the men....either that or allow strip clubs.

    Jesus recommended plucking your eyes out. One rapper actually did.

    Guess this blows the "they cover up on their own free will" angle.

    I agree.
    The Iranians are wrong here.
    But it isn't this way here in Pakistan!

    Lucky you!

    Unfortunately, the rules are still enforced by thugs who ignore the rule of civil law.

    A fanatic shot dead Punjab Minister for Social Welfare Zill-e-Huma Usman “for not adopting the Muslim dress code” at a political meeting here at the PML House on Tuesday. A party worker caught the accused, Maulvi Sarwar, and handed him over to the Civil Lines Police. Huma was at the PML House to hold an open Kachehry. As she was busy meeting the PML women activists, the accused sitting in the audience approached her with a pistol and pumped bullets into her head from a point-blank range… The accused, M Sarwar Mughal — popularly known as Maulvi Sarwar — is a resident of Baghbnapura in Gujranwala. Two police stations of Gujranwala and the Tibbi police of Lahore had booked Maulvi Sarwar for the murder of six women, but he was acquitted for want of sufficient evidence. His alleged spree of killing “immoral” women started in the year 2002. In his confession statement before the police on Tuesday, he said he was opposed to women holding public office. He added that after he read in the newspaper that the minister was holding an open court, he decided to kill her.​

    And that wasn't the 14th century -- that was this February.
